About LinkBacksOntario RAT 1, Aus 8 steel, good lock up and a well centered blade. Holds a great edge and I find easy to sharpen. Good gimping on back of blade and great hollow for thumb.
I have had about 10 months now and although I haven't done a deer with it yet it has probably skinned and removed meat off 700 -800 rabbits.
Not expensive, designed in USA , made Taiwan but a really good knife that performs alot better than some stuff I have owned worth two and half times the price.

Viper, I have a RAT 1 in D2 steel, pretty nice knife. Actually damn good for the price. I will be taking it out once I'm back hunting (recovering from an injury).

Folding knife for hunting
I was deeculler for 6 years and carried a mercator as a spare all the time. There is a great choice of knives these days.

Got a new one the same after seeing the Manly on here. Razor sharp and very firm when open but not physically locked. Will remain new as I like locking.
