Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Favorite tools for cleaning deer??

My local processor........

For simply field dressing:
Butt out
Sagen hunters field saw
Outdoor edge knife
Ziplock bags for tenders

Obviously we can all do it with just a knife, but adding these tools to the arsenal makes life easier.

Almost any sharp knife that holds an edge. This year I used a Winston for the skinning, small Old Timer folding for the gutting.

Buck 110

i carry an Outdoor edge swing blade, and small saw combo. along with a 4 inch filet knife and pocket sharpener. my kit also includes some latex gloves, a large contractor trash bag a set of Caribou game bags , and some Parachord. quite often we shoot deer where we can drag them, but soem of the places I hunt it is just easier to break the animal down in the field and carry it out on my back----I have no desire to drag a deer either up or down hill through deadfalls and boulders
