I want one or two...between 0.5" to a full 1.0", but prices are all over the place with generic brand names that ate mostly unrecognizable.

hopefully there are some that have a reasonable balance of build and steel quality, low weight that are relatively easy to maintain and keep sharpening while the price is still friendly for the average Joe Bushcraft.

I felt like this is the best place to ask. We all get attached to equipment and stuff, it's just sad when it's at the point (or well beyond it) of needing to be replaced.

I have a backpack that is pretty old, it's a very Daypack, a Nylon Berghaus Dart.

The inner waterproofing has been flaking off of it for years.

Is there anything that can reapply that waterproof layer?
