Great plan Geek, sounds like he will have a splendid WE
My son's Winter Solstice present was a Mora in a trad scandi style leather sheath for similar reason/situation

I bought my son one of these for our little trip (reminds me that I must book it tonight), TOPS CUB - https://www.thebushcraftstore.co.uk/top ... 5141-p.asp

I have a D that i carried through 16 of my 17 years service... was lucky enough that before joining up I did some work for Inland Revenue collecting cheques for PAYE tax and Wilkinson Sword was one of the companies i visited..... a little begging and I got one for very little money... still my go to knife

One knife to do everything is a tough choice. I recently picked up a Schrade something or other, great knife, good steel and solidly built, the only thing I'd say is it's maybe a bit big and thick for intricate work but for batoning and general use it'll take any punishment you would throw at it. After trying a few different knives I'm planning to just forge my own to my specifications.

Holy thread resurrection batman! But while we are at it... I have a lot of knives. Some expensive, some cheap. And honest, I would go with one of the cheap ones. A Morakniv that cost about £20. Scandi grind and tough as old boots.
I have used it to carve wood, skin a rabbit, cut rope etc. Even hammered it through a steel nail and the edge held up fine.
Just as a bonus, the spine acts as a flint striker too!

Easy, my little pocket knife, Morris friction folder. Super strong, easily sharpened. Comes with me everywhere
