Boot Knives
Boot knives are sleek knives that are strapped to one's boot or bottom part of your leg and primarily used for hunting, fishing and personal safety. Generally stored in a sheath on a person's leg but some also supply long enough cords so that the knife can be laced to the waist as well. When a person loves the outdoors it is a useful piece of equipment to carry for any event where a knife needs to be quickly accessible whether it is to cut up some food or for self-protection. Some of them are fitted with an emergency warning device such as a whistle should a person need assistance. Boot knives are good self-protection accessories which are out of sight and not intimidating.
