what is your idea of a perfect hunting knife ?

[seabast]

For hunting: One not too big and heavy, easy to sharpen, easy to see when it's on the ground and one that has a saw to cut thru bones. Right now I have a Browning that's almost there beside the brown color.
For everything: L'original Opinel.

I'd love to own a Puma someday, since I've been looking at them in catalogues since I was a lad. My go to hunting knife is this one. Normark still sells them, and unless things have changed, they are still under $50. They did make a change a few years ago, and actually put a bolster / guard on them, but the handle is a non-slip material, and it has never been an issue for me.

In not sure about those muklok style skinning knives lol maybe on caribou lol
I think the fibrox skinning knife is what you will see in the scabbard of butchers who skin steers all day long.

I actually need to buy one for xmas for my nephew who is starting to hunt. Thinking he needs a fixed drop point. Probaby get him a Buck. Everybody should own one of those.

Terry, check out the Buck zipper, I have the one with wood handle. I think its the zipper model.

I have this Schrade Outfitter Old Timer for a long time and it is very good. It stays sharp forever, the rubber grip helps when your hands get dirty, and the sheath is really nice.
