I tried to do a big old nanny doe a couple Saturday's ago but she wouldn't come within bow range. It'll happen, getting that time of year now.

On top is my version of that one. Every year I bring a different knife with me opening day for deer. This year I'll be bringing that Dowell. I like smaller knives for field dressing

That's a nice one too Vince. I gutless debone and quarter my deer and backpack them out. I have no doubts about the abilities of Brett's M4 steel on my B&T. Looking forward to working it out this season...

Looking forward to working it out this season... That knife is D2. So is the boning knife I have listed FS. I have one of the boning knives in my kitchen set at home,he ran the Rc hardness up to 62 I think he told me. I use mine as a personal steak knife,I cut right on the dinner plates & yeah,it eventually dulls it,but not so fast. I never was a big fan of D2 but after actually using one,I can see why so many knife makers use it. Stuff is dam good

I think one of those B&T's with about a 1/4" more cutting edge would be awesome!

I like D2, it's a hard working steel that does a lot of things well. My first D2 knives were from Bob Dozier. I think he runs his to about 61 Rc and gives them a high thin hollow grind. They'll cut, no doubt. I have an Ingram D2 knife to wring out this fall along with my Dowell B&T. Brett had that M4 knife already made up when my turn on the list popped up. That M4 is at 65 Rc and Brett offered to make me one just like it in D2 if I wanted instead of the M4. I guess some guys have trouble sharpening the M4 but so far so good for me. I expect good things from it!

That's nicer than nice!!! Thanks guys. It'll have a Parsons double stitched right side belt loop sheath. I call these " boning" knives,but they are just about perfect for many uses,at home,camp,or afield.

That's a beauty Woodson! Nice seeing it at work. If Photobucket would let me upload a picture from my phone I'd post a picture of my M4 steel B&T getting ready to debone and quarter a big doe for the pack out on Sunday morning. The M4 was interesting to me, Brett finished that at Rc 65 and it has been fantastic in use.
