Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire What are your favorite go to hunting and fishing knives?

1000% Agree. Carrying one since 1983. This design should be copied more than it is. Wonderful knife.

If I didn't already know how to properly sharpen with a
pocket whetstone or bench sized stone at home,
I'd be using one of the replaceable blade knives and
not look back. No shame in it. I wish some of my
friends and acquaintances would make the switch so
they wouldn't have to depend on me

A hard white and black speckled Arkansas.
And spit....


It's been around the planet also.
Dont take but 2 mins to freshen up the hone and shave hair off my arm.

Used to have a hard orange brown Arkansas same size.
That fugga would put a edge on really good also.
Lost it some where in fugging Norway or a Norwegian troop decided he liked more than I did.
Which is what I really think what went down.

All I know is I hit the rack, woke up next morning.
Gone......
I had sharpened some of them knuckleheads knives a couple of days prior.
They was really interested in how I did it.
One of the dumb schits ran his finger on his edge being skeptical.
To the bone.
His buds laughing their azz,s off at him.
Medic........

Tiny circles moving forward
Flip.
Repeat 3 or 4 times.
Strop
Gtg.

Buck 110 and an old Rapala / J. Marttiini fillet knife.

Dexter Russell filet/boning, paring and chef. Forschner/victorinox 10” breaking knife for butchering.

Gerber 950 for gutting/skinning.

Big Havalon for processing.

LOL

Yep this is what I do. However more like 45 minutes for me. I have done an entire elk with 2 havalon blades. Really could have done it with one. That includes a full skin and cape. You guys who refuse to try havalon are missing out. The larger size havalon I do not like. The original is the way to go. Heck my taxidermist uses one for most tasks. Not many folks cutting on animals as much as him.

Browning 503 to the start off.... then the world's greatest skinner ......then the rest is done with a buck 110...... Milwaukee saw hack...9 to 12 inch 6/12 tooth blade combo .....that's what my moose deserves and gets !
