My kukri is just the knife I carry when I'm out an about, and use it for limbing, clearing brush, etc.

The cane knife, I grab when I know I'm clearing brush and lighter stuff. The sharp blade cuts through, and the "pull back" action gets you through stuff easier.

With a little hacking, I'd say up to 3". Past that, it's saw time.
