Hi, /k/

I'm going first time alone innawoods(brazilian jungle) tomorow but I only have a sleeping bag, swiss army knife, Glock feldmesser 78, .22 air rifle, a zippo, camo t-shirt, hat and a simple flashlight. Should I buy a machete? Any tips for a fellow /k/omrade who doesn't want to spend a penny?
>>
Can't wait to hear your /spooky/ story.

That is if you are still alive
>>
>>28014646
If you are in the jungle I would very much suggest a machete
>>
>>28014732
I think i'm gonna buy one tomorow before leaving.
>>
>>28014646
You mentioned a shirt and a hat but not pants?
I think you should pack some pants, anon
>>
>>28014646

No sleeping roll or tent? No food? Are you by chance SpecOps?
>>
>>28014646
Get a better knife

>brazillian jungle
>sleeping bag

shit better have a bug net over it, otherwise any skin not covered is going to look like an extra pepperoni pizza in the morning. Consider taking food and maybe some kindling.

Only a .22. Pray you don't come into contact with a windigo.

What should I get besides the machete?
>>
>>28014745
Don't go cheap, you get what you pay for has never been more true than with blades
>>
>>28017468
Yeah sure.

What type of blade steel should I choose?
>>
At first I was all like "whaaaat? You can bring air rifles into the jungles of brazil?", but then i remembered south america is still america so it still has at least a little bit of freedom in it.

>>28017501
Actually it's illegal to hunt with it but whatever.

I'm not good with specific steel names, but you definitely want some flex in the blade if it's a Latin style machete.
If you have the money and want a blade with more chopping capability than a Latin machete, I'd get a Himalaya Imports Kukri.
>>
>>28017623
I always wanted a kukri blade maybe when I have money i'll get a quality one.

This.a nice machete will help out alot

>What should I get besides the machete?
A multitool that isn't useless like the swiss army POS. Leatherman or gerber is decent.

Moras are cheap and decent knives.
>>
>>28017623

FFS shut up. A khukri and machete are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT types of blade.

A khukri is not fit for purpose if you intend to use it to bushwhack in the jungle.

Newfags shouldn't worry about steel, look at popular designs from reputable manufacturers instead. Most of what you'll find in machetes is 1075 or 1095 anyways. Ontario makes an economy model machete that's pretty great, and you can get a plastic sheath for about $10.

Tramontina makes good machetes, but they generally don't come with sheaths. Condor makes nice machetes that come with sheaths, but now that they're more popular they're getting a bit more expensive. Some of Cold Steel's machetes are nice, but some are straight garbage.

Aranyik makes some nice stuff, but it's sort of hard to find.

This is true, but I'm gonna have to disagree with you on that jungle bit. Unless you're specifically talking about making trails.

De que cidade é, OP?

Em que lugar pretende ir? Qual sua carabina 5.5mm?
>>
>>28014646
Don't wear any bright colors when you go out there. Sorry you live in a country you can't even take a rifle out there with you.
>>
>>28014646

Take pants, too. Your ass will get cold. People innawoods like shoes and socks too. Take three pairs of socks.

Maybe some food, too, if you are staying longer than a day. And water.

Remember: there is no xbox innawoods

Pretty hot there. It's summer here.
How much food and water is enough for 24 hours? I'dont want to carry all that if I'm carrying a tent and a machete

>>28019431
Camo t-shirt and hat. I think I'm gonna buy a camo pant and a long sleeve camo shirt.

Interessante, tenho vontade de ir innawoods mas não tenho muitos locais por aqui.

Pretendo levar minhas Crossman 1077 e AT44-10.

Sobre comida, leve umas 3 latas de atum, uma garrafa de 2l de água além de algum cantil, vai precisar muito no calor, a B12 vai dar conta de pequenos animais se pretende tentar caçar aqui, mas nada muito maior que alguma ave ou cotia.
