In most of the western US campfires are a no go, and have been for a while due to drought conditions!
. But I've built a lot of campfires in my day, and if you do it right you don't need to split no stinking wood.
Do what you want G, but you don't need to spend tons do money on fancy blades to survive in the woods. That's one of my pet peeves right now, all these "survival" shows showing these idiots going out and hacking everything in sight making people think that is acceptable, and that everyone needs to know how to do all of that. Better bet is to poney up for a nice pack(if hiking) and a good tent and sleeping bag. Those items will make your life less miserable, and a good tent and sleeping bag will save your life in the colder months.
