post custom knives!!! The nicest knife i have ever used. I've had it for 4 years and skined 3 moose with it. Several of the guys at my camp have ordered them since they saw mine.

Looking for an all around hunting knife, to start with.

Anyone have any reviews or comments on the Knives of Alaska set? Pref. the elk hunter or whitetail hunter?

What would you buy or rate as 1 ultimate good solid all around knife?

Thanks

I won't recommend a brand., but size matters. For field dressing , go small 440 stainless 3 in. blade. [This helps you keep all your fingers when you're cutting a wind pipe blind ] A skinning knife is handy , as is a fillet knife [Normark..just sayin'] and you're good to go. All else said , if I could only have one knife , it would have to be a Buck folder 3-1/2 in. I recommended brands didn't I!? oh well.

The only fixed blade knives I own are a Grohmann #3 and some Moras I use for camping. I actually use folders for most things, and the Grohmann gets used in the kitchen.

That Buck Vanguard in S30V someone mentioned, that would be a great knife. Nice size and handling and great steel.

Sog creed is usually the only knife i bring out. Its cleaned alot of grouse.and skinned a few of the smaller mammals. Saved my cheeks a few times when i needed to wip a fire up as chopping is its job, have chopped hardwood branches near 5" in diameter http://sogknives.com/store/CD-02.html

price on the sog website is a little off as i purchased it at lebaron for more than 100 less than its posted there

One good all-round hunting knife is an oxymoron. You will need either 3 good specialty knives or one cheapie that gets replaced often...
