Hunting Knife Thread!

[Edged Tools]

Just curious INGO, what is your go to hunting knife?

Let's make this a picture thread, what knife or knives do you throw in your hunting kit, and what do you use each for?

I gutted around 2 dozen deer with this. My brother in law gave this to me for Christmas before I was married in around 1978 or 9.

Friend gave me a kit knife he did, back in 85.
Done dozens of deer with it, gave it to a bud a couple yrs ago.
Had switched to a Jeff White Bush 3. Its done maybe 7 or 8 now. Handle a little too straight and blade a little too big, but it zips through em.
I shot bows w Jeff way back.
So its my go to now.
Did buy a Behring EDC pro. But thats for whenever I do a P&Y buck w my Blackwidow.

Definitely this!

I use it on just about every thing I hunt.

I have an old Knives of Alaska Cub that gets the bulk of my deer work these days.

This old Gerber Magnum Hunter has cleaned everything it's needed to in the last 50 years.

actually more folders than I expected. I always assume a good fixed blade is preferred. Love the pics though, keep em coming!

I gave my dad a Buck 110 in the early '70's , since he passed in 2001, I have carried it on every hunt. It's almost like he is with me yet

I don't have a picture handy, but the last 20+ years my go to hunting knife has been a Buck Vanguard with wooden handle.

Did not expect to see folders in this thread. I'm at a pub so I can't take a pic, but church mouses wife sent me an incredible fixed blade knife I use when hunting. Being a blacksmith I want to make my own hunting knife but I have a hard time replacing mine bc the respect I have for the churchmouse family.

Got me a Buck 110 from 1988. Had to replace the snap on leather case once. Found one on auction for $25, bid and won. It has the new style nylon case, but same blade design and grips. Gave my 1988 model a break and use the New one a bit.
Good knives.

Buck 110 for years. About 4-5 years ago got a Morknif and been using it ever since.
I still carry the 110 just in case.

Schrade "Uncle Henry". I believe it is a LB 8 model. Got it over 40 years ago when Schrade made great knives. She's got a few bumps and bruises, but don't we all? Still going strong and sharper than an ex-wife's tongue.



Here are 2 other Schrade knives (LB 5 and UH 875) that I have carried off an on for way to many years. Skinned many a rabbit and squirrel with that Uncle Henry. There is something about old school pocket knives. Reminds me of simpler times.

I like to use a fixed blade for camping, fishing, and hunting chores. I've has several Hinderer knives over the years and this Ranch Bowie is a favorite. I ground the edge to 20°/side followed by a light strop.

I was just in JL Waters and they have quite the selection, especially for Benchmade - said it was the largest in the state. Anyway I handled the Flyway fixed blade model. I think I have found my next hunting knife. The size is exactly what I prefer and it fits the hand so well. I kept from impulse buying it, but after thinking about it a few days that’s on my list before Dove season lol

Anyone here already have one? Thoughts?

I've sold one to a person, and they absolutely loved it.
