Yes it is allowed in Canada. I know the article is meant to be a joke but putting too many accessories on a firearm will actually decrease your chance of survival. The reasons are as follows:
1) More weight=faster fatigue
2) More weight=slower movement
3) More accessories=easier to get tangle in tight spaces

Mossberg sell the JIC (just in case) shotgun which i believe is marketed primarly towards paranoid idiots. In fact i think it came out right after hurricane Katrina.
Its basically a pistol grip (wrist breaker) shotgun and comes in an airtight floating tube and also includes a multitool and some other crap. |

I carry a Skeletool on me daily, my backpacking kit has a Wave and I also have a Surge sitting around the house. MEC - Skeletool CX MEC - Wave MEC - Surge

I was actually looking at the other Skeletool they have, the one with the serrated blade.
This one, http://www.mec.ca/Products/product_d...34374302696889 . $54 vs $84 for the CX. That's quite a difference.

Without a doubt the Skeletool CX has a superior blade (and while it originally only came with a serrated combo blade, so far as I know the CX is now only offered with the straight blade) however depending on your potential uses for it having the serrated edge can be more beneficial.

I want a serrated blade for sure. I just know I'm going to need it 1 day and regret not having it.
BTW, thanks for the explanation.
edit: it's surpisingly small. I thought it would be bigger. It was on display at Sport Chek.

The tactical Benchmade 556 behind it has a 154CM blade. The larger Gerber behind that is in keeping with this thread topic, my Zombie Defense Knife. I have no idea where my Surge is right now.

The one on the lower right is the CX? The older model that had the serrated blade?
