How about knives? In this day of having to have a custom knife made of exotic steel forged by elves , let's hear about some of your trusty old $20 knifes that has served you well in the field. I have a old western folder made with I'm sure 440A stainless that has served me well and dressed and skinned multiple deer. I also have a couple of colt branded fixed blades made in China that cost probably $25 or less that get shaving sharp and are good for a couple of deer before needing re sharpened and that s usually a few licks on a steel. Moras are another. I could go on but let's hear about your $20 favorites. Last edited by bangeye; 08/26/15.

When we went into the lab, I used commercial butchering knives and scalpels to do necropsies, but that 110 was the only knife in my pocket or on my belt until it disappeared from my luggage at the airport in Kodiak, AK. I keep thinking that I will buy another, but I just can't believe that it would be the same... Ben Some days it takes most of the day for me to do practically nothing...

I think it was the first knife I purchased with lawn mowing money a long time ago. It holds an edge pretty well. I have what I'd consider cheap knives but the only ones that seem like they're a good value were older Kershaws and a couple Gerber Pro-series in ATS34. “You never need fear a man, no matter what his size.

Im pretty sure its made in China, and its probably 440A...but its a damn nice little knife thats skinned more than a couple of deer. I wouldnt mind finding an original Kissing Crane in that pattern, but for now it works great..I think I paid 25 for it. Another very handy knife that I keep close is the Cold Steel Canadian Belt Knife...I think these are about 15 bucks. Its definitely not a Grohmann, but its pretty solid.

The 4 deer I killed last year were all taken from field to table with a Case trapper and a couple of cheap fillet knives. I could easily put venison in the freezer for the rest of my life with a Mora number one ($15) a Rapala fillet knife ($15), and a soft Arkansas stone....I'll splurge and spend $30 to get one from Dan's. That's $60 and I am set with totally adequate tools. Compared to custom knives "made with exotic steel forged by elves" , that cost hundreds of dollars, anything that can be had from Case or Buck for somewhere around a $50 price point that fits your hand and tastes is a tremendous value. Any of them will gut and skin a lifetime's worth of deer, and give you a little pride of ownership....They were what was desirable in the 70's when I was a kid and I still consider them to be "nice".

My oldest one is the year they came out or thereabouts. I can't help myself if I see a good deal on one as they have been my go to knife for all these years. My original one has skinned so many deer over the years and been sharpened that the blade is pretty much worn down and I should have it replaced but its to sentimental to me to take a chance to send it away.

They are very affordable and take an edge very well. I always seem to have one in my pack, garage, tackle box etc. My daughters first fixed blade was the Mora scout model and she still uses it. She was actually trying to carve a spoon with it two days ago. I also bought two more and gave them to a couple of kids I know when they first got their hunting licenses a few years back.

My father gave me one prior to my first big game hunt. Down through the years I have acquired and used many more expensive and exotic knives. Nowdays I've pretty much come full circle and that 35 year old 110 goes hunting again. It's not only for sentimental reasons - the 110 is still up to the task. For the money I don't think there is a better value on the market.

None are HI dollar but dependable and I've been using the Remington drop point/gut hook since 1995. Don't remember where I got it, but less than $50. ( I think I got it from Smokey Mtn Knife Works) This is a 'Bear Paw' multi tool 'type'. I keep this one in my back pack. I like drop points except when skinning. This one skins very well. I use gut hooks every time. This B P also has a bone saw that will cut wood. This is a 'cheap' $30. Winchester brand stick knife I got from Wally W. Can't find one now. It's sharp and holds an edge but not TOO hard to resharpen. For an inexpensive knife, I really like this one. Jerry ps - You can see I USE these knives. They aren't show ponies.

Opening day of deer season in Texas is about November 1, but it still can be 85-90 degrees in the afternoon. One such day, we killed three deer from our camp and needed to take them apart and get the meat on ice pronto. I usually carry two or three knives. When one gets dull, I just close it and switch to another, leaving cleanup until the meat is squared away and re-sharpening till campfire time. We were well into the third deer when I realized I had never switched knives. Back then, that was a $25 knife; even today, it can be had for $40-$50. But it holds its own against the expensive mass production knives, and even alongside the customs.

For the past 12-15 years have used the same Victoronix Swiss Army Knife (the Camper model, if I recall correctly) on hundreds of deer and pronghorns. It works great, and started working even better after I treated all the blades (including the saw) with Gun Shield. Can just rinse it off in hot water for a few seconds and everything comes off. Have used it on bigger stuff, and it's okay on caribou and small elk, and even once was the first knife to start on a water buffalo bull, because nobody else had any sort of knife along.

Regarding price --- find one for $20.00 these days. Since I have more'n one, I haven't checked prices but I guess $40.00ish. I HAD a friend, now passed, that could NOT sharpen his Buck 110. I sharpened it for him several Xs. Wish I still could sharpen it for him. Jerry jwall- *** 3100 guy*** A Flat Trajectory is Never a Handicap Speed is Trajectory's Friend !!

Must also note that Victoronix Camper Model Swiss Army knives, which feature an easily sharpened stainless steel, are usually a little (but not a lot) more than $20 these days. But I have picked up several for less than that used at gun shows, and for far less than that from a guy who sells knives confiscated by TSA. 10 bucks is about average. “Montana seems to me to be what a small boy would think Texas is like from hearing Texans.” John Steinbeck

They come very sharp, stay that way reasonably well and are surprisingly easy to sharpen. They lock open, lock closed, are very light and quit rugged given their simple construction. I have used them to field dress a number of deer and antelope and, if I am careful, they cut through the ribs just fine. I have had several, never had one break though, like all my pocket knives, they tend to go missing fairly regularly...but at 13 bucks, who cares? Buy a few spares.

I find that it's a hell of a lot of weight per inch of cutting edge. Fine for the truck. I prefer a lighter knife. For a while they made the 110 with a titanium body. Should have bought one. Hell, I should have bought 3. Instead, I get by with the Gerber LST family, a medium size one in my pocket and a "magnum" in my pack. They're cheap if I lose them, light to carry, and take and hold an edge well enough to get a deer out of the field ... that is really all the function I require. My favorite fixed blade utility-price knife is a Buck Vanguard with the rubber handle. Tom Anyone who thinks there's two sides to everything hasn't met a M�bius strip. Here be dragons ...

Probably the best knives for gutting and disassembling deer I'll ever get my hands on. I put curly maple on one and some nicely figured walnut on the other.been using them for 3-4 years and have yet to sharpen either one. I gutted, skinned and disassembled three deer in '13 and four in '14 with the walnut knife. VG-10 steel is incredible stuff, but it's usually a lot more expensive. Very hard, extremely abrasion resistant, sharpens surprisingly easy. I've been using it for about fifteen years, mainly for butchering.

It is 'noticeably' lighter than the wood handle one. Actually ordered that one by mistake. My son in hi school could carry a pocket knife with a certain length. Don't remember exactly how long. I ordered this 110 syn. not realizing how long it was. I got him another and kept this one. Sharp point, excellent cutting edge and LIGHT. I don't know if they are available now or not.

I don't have any worth more than $30, I don't think. In my hunting pack I carry a small hook knife with the replaceable double ended blades and 2 Mora's. The hook knife gets used for all initial skinning cuts. Its small enough to not puncture the guts but still get through the hide, and it unzips even elk and moose with ease. The Mora's have been great, really don't need more than 1 but they are cheap and light so an extra can be handy.
