Home Forums Gear Knives and Blades Hunting knife preferences

I am always on the lookout for new hunting knives. I am curious as to what design features you guys prefer in a hunting knife? Things like blade length, blade shape, handle materials, etc. I consider my hunting knife the one I carry while actually hunting, its primary purpose is to field dress animals. I have separate skinning and boning knives.

I prefer a stainless drop point with a 3 to 3-1/4" blade with either g10 or micarta slabs.
