Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting Knives for elk

I cannot recall the number of elk I have quartered up with a Mora. None cost $20.



The little carbon blades sharpen up quick and easy and the knives themselves are quite light.



Pack saw:



I usually take a couple and a tiny little ceramic sharpener, along with a small bone saw. No need to carry the extra weight of some of the heavier knives. In fact I weighed a couple of my "good" knives on my postal scale and while truly excellent knives, they weighed more than twice what the Mora knives weighed. I keep the good knives around for butchering when it is time to cut and wrap the animals at home. I have a bunch of good old Gerbers that get a workout for that kind of thing.
