    Currently using a Bahco. I have a fixed blade Gerber which is a similar size to the Bacho but weighs a lot more and no sharper.

    Size of your hunting knife?

    Taff, I would like one of those UK style gralloching ? / gutting knives for opening deer out but did you really pay 550+ uk pounds for it as per their website?

    I have a confession, I New these boys when they started out making knives, and helped design the Cael AR ,it stands for adrian/ Richard. The one in the picture was a leaving present from Richard when I left the Uk, it is one of three made using a kershaw steel, they usually use AEBL, so no is the answer, would I pay that much for a knife , that’s a bit like asking a lady her age.

    Size of your hunting knife?

    Taff, I’d like one of that pattern but might have to get it made locally. Even in the uk those prices would be steep but a 2:1 exchange rate they are 1100-1500 $!

    Nice blade never the less.

    Ps don’t need to ask the age but good to get a look at their mum to know what your getting!

    Cheap and cheerful - primarily use the Victorinox and mercator copy.
    The Mora is a backup.

    Eaglehawk knives. Made in Australia. Takes the same scalpel blades as the Havalon. No need to ever sharpen a knife again. One blade will dress a couple of large deers.

    The relevance is ... to associate a loser ISIS symphatiser with imaginary white supremacist HUNTERS.

    And if it was taken from the shelf in countdown kitchen knife would be a better description . I have never seen a hunting knife sold in a supermarket myself .
    But can't have people thinking a kitchen implement is dangerous can we ....
    Much betterer to blame the guys who also own rifles .... in a subconcious way of course .

    I have a few knives which range from 5 inch all purpose to a 2 inch caping knife and then theres a 6 inch bird and trout.

    Be interesting if there was a poll added to this thread
