Eat everything in the crock pot and then try to barter it

There's a area of tents and huts in the woods where you can trade goods. You bring the crock pot to it. You end up trading it for a knife. Always useful.

• 1 look for more food
• 2 rob somebody with the knife
• 3 go home to admire your knife while in your "secret place"
• 4 go hunting in the swamp with your knife
