Both VG-10 blades and under $100. Don't know why Kershaw discontinued the 1993.


That Moki intrigues me.

Like I need another fugkin' knife... Thanks, a-hole.

Glad I could enable. I forget who tipped me about the moki. Not quite the fit and finish of a custom blade, but a useful grind and good steel. The handle is sized more for girl hands, so I'm sure you'll love it.

I'm used to skinny and short.

Should be a perfect match.

Not high production, but a fantastic knife by a real craftsman, Dave kauffman. I posted this a few years ago and Rick Menefee had a conniption fit. Oh well, it is a real nice knife...

This knife is always in my kit as was the one that preceded it, which I lost somehow somewhere.

I use it for breaking briskets an removing entrails!

If you were hawkin' "real craftsman" of the knife trade with the offered example, I am glad Rick spoke up.

Years ago, maybe 15 or so. Gerber made the Gator with a drop point in 154cm, IIRC. I liked it, but lost it....



I believe that I have one, still in the blister pack. Brother gave it to me for Christmas, many years back.

For the OP question, D.H. Russell Bird n Trout or KOA Cub.

Hard to beat for the money. I just picked one up for 63 bucks from LL Bean (25% off coupon)

Something from Bark River....classic drop-point or Canadian skinner should do the trick.

Buck made a knife years ago called a selector... I think. You could change blades by depressing the locking mechanism on it and change from a serrated, drop point, or a saw... liked it so much was quite distraught when I couldn't find it. Went out, found another and bought it. Found the original....now I have 2. Love them. They work well for what I need. Also have a 110... and thanks to you guys several customs. 2 from Gene Ingram with a third due around the 1st of the year... so thanks.

Might be a little hard to find these days though. wink

I bought a Gerber Gator S30V fixed blade from Cabela's that I really like and recently, a Buck 103 skinner, I like both equally well.

Well before I became a knife snob I ran KOA and cold steel

Big game for me is whitetail deer - I own several production knives but mainly use the Buck 118 Personal from gutting to skinning to butchering the meat. I do prefer the older versions with 440C steel - the edge lasts longer but is tougher to re-apply.
