Hey guys
Im looking for a decent hunting knife basically just for skinning, butchering goats and deer. I don't mind second hand or new as long as its decent and reasonable price( on a student budget). cheers

Bahco from miter 10

And put a loop of brightly coloured paracord through it so you can loop ur fingers thru and never slip onto blade. Plus easier to find if you drop. Yes I know bahco is bright anyway but first thing for me on any new knife: the trusty loop. It's naked without it!
+1 perfect knife for the budget concious.....ive got three of them......Quote:

One of the shorter Victorinox boning knives (13cm) will do everything you need.
If you are after a svord, victorinox or mercator please PM me
I have a SOG field pup which I absolutely love. Holds an edge super well now that I'm sharpening it on a much steeper angle than before.
If you have parents or a girlfriend, knives are an easy gift for them. Give them a make and model and point them towards the shop :thumbsup:

@posummatti, you still looking for a knife?...if you are looking for a basic stab 'em, slash 'em knife, I have a few of these around the place...will cost a box of Cody's (if you are old enough to buy) for one...there are probably a few more lying around the place to pick from...I just have way more than I will ever use.
I bought one of those buffalo river drop point knives worst bloody mistake ever got a nice edge on it then when I went to cut up the lamb I got off dundee one cut and the edge was gone I was just glad I had a butchers skinning knife with me that held its edge for the entire task with the occasional swipe over the steel, I should have spent the extra dollars and got a svord or a victorinox as a hunting knife
Hey spook. Barefoot was kind enough to give me a utility type knife which has come very handy. I am still interested in buying another knife to accompany my one as the blades quite short. If you dont mind waiting 3 years for a box of codys than that can be sorted[emoji6] otherwise we can come to another arrangement. definitely interested mate. CheersQuote:

..they used to be about 40bucks.....had mine for about 18 years or more.
Jeze any of them looked the money to me. Father insists the third one down will do the trick haha. Where abouts are you we may be able to sort something out. Cheers mateQuote:
