I was wondering if anybody knew what knives were taken on the Breitling Orbiter 3? I'm reading the book, The Greatest Adventure, written by Bertrand Piccard and Brian Jones and how they flew around the world in a Balloon ( the first ones to do so) and in the book it says they had "survival knives" strapped to their legs but it does not say what knives they were carrying and I was wondering if any body could knew what knives they had with them for the trip. Thanks.
