Outdoor Edge replaceable blade knife with the orange grippy handle so I won't set it down and lose it. Love it. Have plenty of good knives too, but I just don't like sharpening knives anymore. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/YhxKyZr.jpg) I like that one too. Can skin a couple deer before blade needs changing out, and blades are fairly cheap. I keep an old Buck Vanguard for the heavy-duty cuts. 24 blades about 40 bucks. A lifetime supply. Lifetime supply?

I also use the OE as my only field butchering tool, doing the gutless method.

Knife for all of it except I use brush nippers to knock the back lower legs off soo I can hang them higher. Not often but when I save ribs I use a hatchet to knock them off the spine.

Either a Mora knife or a buck 110 folding knife. I usually wait until I get the deer hung before splitting the pelvis.

Part of my night before opener preparation is putting a shaving sharp edge on the knife I will be carrying the next morning. I use 2 Arkansas stones and a barbers strope

Ditto what The Tinman said. He really knows his meat...
Fillet knives work well for trimming. I grind at home and also have a big stuffer that's used to fill plastic bags with ground meat as well as stuffing sausage casings. Large plastic tubs work well for putting your meat in.
It's about time I get recognized for my suburb meat handling skillz. What about you? A pro on the receiving end of stuffing sausages? Jealous, I be. That's a skill that will treat you well for life.

Never needed anything but one good skinning knife to dress and quarter a deer. This, same buck knife I’ve had for 50 years.

I bought a couple of these a couple of years ago, galvanized pan ,and love them for putting deer cuts into while processing and grinding meat. They also work well for mixing sausage. Fit into my fridge, and easy to put foil on while cooling. Fit under the grinder spout, and have handles. Works for me. I use Russel carbon boning knives for my butchering. miles
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

A couple Mora knives, a little lightweight sharpener and either my Swedish folding saw or an old Knapp saw that I inherited, that belonged to my grandfather. Deer are not much effort compared to elk. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/Ng2N7Xw.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/J25rLyu.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/J7Apw7i.jpg)
