I've always carried the various smaller Buck fixed blades. That was until about 15 years ago my father-in-law bought me a Bob Dozier. That's the knife I always carry now.

Make mine an Old Timer 125ot Mustang This is one of my all time favorite hunting knives. The liner lock is a nice feature and the USA made version will really take and keep an edge.

Got to say there's not a whole lot I can't do with an outdoor edge 3.5 or 5, to the point I just carry both (onyx and boning/filet) in my chest pack.
Like my good ol merkur 34c, always ready for the job.

Me too. It is the bone handle/brass Case XX X-Changer. I leave the drop point blade in it. It was my 5 year tenure award from what turned out to be a 45 year career. I never go afield without it.

Usually a Buck 110 for deer, but this year picked up a short Randall model 8 to carry.

I love knives to the consternation of my wife. I have Alaska, Buck, 4 custom by Richard Waites, etc. But i cannot argue with Outdoor Edge replaceable blades when I'm on the side of a mountain in the cold cleaning an animal.
