My gf and I have been planning on doing some real camping. You know, way back in there. And it made me think that whittling would add a very interesting and artistic way of creating some kindling, as well as some artwork for the mantle top or a walking stick.
I know nothing about what makes a proper whittling blade, nor any techniques.
Can anyone give me some advice on knives and possibly a book that is recommended?
Light weight and compact are a plus.

Thanks,
