The first one is a Herron Number Two. I've butchered a good many elk and deer, a fair number of mooses and speed goats with it. It may be a many-hundred dollar knife, but is a work knife at heart.
A couple of times, when cutting mooses, if I took a break to rest my fugged-up back, a friend would grab my Herron and put it back to work.
George's blades will do several elk before needing a slight touch-up on the blade. Just bloody incredible.
The top Number Two in the second photo is made of dall sheep horn. It's one-of-a-kind and George made it for me as a surprise present. We shared just a few brews, celebrating the cool knife.
Blessings,
Steve
