What are your favorite knives, tools that you use for processing your Wild game and fish that you harvest?

Would love to find a good fixed blade knife for medium and big game.

Some of my folding knives take a bit of time to clean them out good after hunting.


ADDED
For your Mora knives do you guys prefer stainless steel or carbon for holding a good Edge?

A couple of Mora knives, a lightweight ceramic sharpener, and a swedish saw are pretty much all I need to process an animal.

I do prefer the bright orange handles over others, for keeping track of them in the snow.

For processing, Victorinox all the way.

Out in the field I have used Helle, Victorinox folder with a saw blade, Ingram, Buck, Oldtimer, Gerber, to name a few,

Lately my favorites have been Ingram's I have a couple B&T's, and his take on a modernized puuko (card says Woodsman) in D2 and S30V.

For a hunting knife, I'm pretty partial to my Knives of Alaska Alpha Wolf, with S30V steel. I have taken apart a few moose and several caribou with it. I also like the Gerber Vital Zip, for a gut hook.

For filleting fish, I have a few favorites...all Victorinox: salmon, halibut, rockfish, and skinning.

For a game saw? Goes through a moose like butter!

I have a knife a good friend made me I use for birds. On deer I use a buck 113 to skin them. They get gutted in the field with whatever knife I happen to have on me that day.
