I have several others, but those ones are pretty much always along for the ride.

    Opinel #7 folder in my pocket and a Mora Classic 612 on my belt. $30.00 for both knives together that have lasted me for almost 40 years. I got them for a Christmas gift when I was in Scouts.

    One of the best hunting knives you can buy is a Mora knife ...nothing fancy,fixed blade ,utilitarian ,but functional,good grip ,sturdy and holds an edge. Costs about 20 bucks .Get the one with a red grip,easy to spot when you put it down in the bush ( can’t tell you how many good knives i’ve put down,and left behind) My hunting partner is a surgeon and says it’s the best knife he has and he can do anything with it . You can pay a lot more ,but you won’t get a lot more

    One of the knives was my retirement gift from my fellow Paramedic friends .
    Great knife maker, very wonderful guy to know and chat with, helpful...guard these knives at all costs. .Blessed to know Mr. MARTY BEETS.
    Have one more knife..from Alberta knife maker. ..that will be my last knife..saving up pennies per month for next years knife.

    Nice choice Steven, I fully concur, Most who use a cheap knife and say it is their favorite have never used a good one imo. I carry a couple of Roy's (BLACKTAIL) creations. tough, sharp, hold an edge "forever". Try a custom built and never look back

    Re: Knife setup

    Agree custom knife is the way to go had one made by caribou knives years ago and will not buy another mass produced knife again

    But I still use a box cutter or scalpel for skinning.
