Hi Guys,
I feel I am in the market for a new knife as the svord is losing its edge too quick and getting a bit sick of it, mainly field dressing but a bit of all round use would be ideal, any suggestions for off the shelf?
Also wondering how people are carrying their rifles in a side by side that can also be quickly accessible if an animal popped out.
Cheers!
Look at von gruff ripi cullers or frontier knives
I have one of each
Worth the spend
Do you have a windscreen?. A few mates have gun rack mounted on the dash or bonnet of their side x sided, like these ones.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...66a7328faf.jpg

Off the shelf knife. Green river Bushman's friend.
Wow, is this knife still available? My Dad gave me one 55 years ago and told me it was the best all-round knife for a man (I was 13). I've still got it somewhere...Quote:

Try to get at least something with 440c.
MJK is a damn nice knife I done a beast with mine week or so ago and it’s still ready to go bush for a week
Might need to look at the profile on the svord knife? Seems strange that that knife is losing its edge quickly, the ones I've used have been as good as anything else I've used unless the edge is too rounded?
And yip 100% just needs a new shoulder mate my oldest Svord would be 15 lost it for a year under water re shaped it new shoulder happy daysQuote:

Check out “Cullers knives” they are made here in NZ and are excellent knives to use, razor sharp and easy to keep that way.
Where does the rear gunner sit?Quote:

Yeah they are almost too beautiful to take bush, but man they are good!Quote:

Hi @Shelley can you please send me a message. Thanks
