Instead of forking our several hundred dollars on a knife you hope you won’t have to sharpen or get sharpened till the season is over . Go pick up a good old Buck or Kershaw or something similar ( I bet you can do it for under $100) brand and pack a decent knife steel in your bag. Learn how to sharpen your knife , it’s not that tricky to do
I would rather have a lesser knife I could sharpen in the field if necessary than a super knife that can’t be sharpened and gets dull due to some unforeseen circumstance.

Last deer I field dressed I did it with a Victorinox Swiss Army knife (Hunter version) I picked up at the fishin hole for $40 on sale. I wanted to see if it was capable. I managed somehow to do the job and still have an edge on the blade.It even has a saw which I used to split the pelvis and the brisket.
