Lots of great knives out there I think we are breaking the bank on the $200 with many though. My go to knife is the Knives of Alaska magnum Alaskan its a good sized stout knife with a great grip done up in D2 Steel around 60 RW. Tough knife with a durable edge and not horrible to sharpen.
My second knife is a Enzo Trapper 95 also in D2 around 61 RW another great knife with micarta handle.
I really like the D2 only downside as with any high carbon steel is rusting or discoloring if not taken care of but as a whole I feel D2 gives the best of all steel charateristics. Its tough, edge retention is very good and sharpening isnt horrible.
For a hunting knife it is tough to beat D2. I have a Spyderco in S30V and while I do like the rust resistance for a EDC I really don't find the edge retention as good as the D2.
