Knives of Alaska Pronghorn Hunter. That's the one and only knife I needed to gut, skin, and de-bone my elk in the field this year.

I’ve been using a Great Eastern Cutlery #73 for about a decade now. Field dressing, skinning and quartering all with the same knife. I can usually do a couple if I’m not careless with the edge and give it a good strop afterwards.

Surprised to see all the folders. Very cool. I got an old buck trapper that I can get razor sharp. Guts and skins good. Like a little longer blade for deboning. Seems like the old timer sharp finger was in on about every kill growing up. Wonder if they still make a good one? I like the cold steel stuff also because if I need to abuse it, it can normally take it.

A Buck 110 that I've had since mid 70s and a KOA Alpha Wolf S30V. I used a KOA Alpha Wolf S30V for quite a few years - good knife. This year I used a Lee Baumgart I bought here on the 'fire and it's now a favorite. I field dressed 6-7 deer and it stayed shaving sharp through all of it with a couple of quick touch ups on a leather strop. I'm very impressed...

I have quite a few knives I like but I probably use my Buck Alpha folding knife the most.

Gerber folder. Can’t remember the model name but it’s small. Stays razor sharp.

Whatever I sharpened last. I have an old Gerber exchange a blade that holds an edge indefinitely. Id like to find a saw blade for that. I lost it in the divorce…Uncle Henry LB-7, James Largent sheath knife…

Thanks - I kept expecting it to need sharpening but it just keeps on cutting. It really is a great size/blade shape, and Lee obviously nailed the heat treat.

Here is another one I'm partial to but haven't given it the workout I have with the Baumgart. From Mike Miller...
