Tough to beat a Havalon for gutless, deboning in the field. I carry one, don't recall the model but it has 2 blades, one small one large. Not the best if you want to keep the hide I find.

I've had good luck with Knives of Alaska, specifically the Elk Hunter with the SureGrip. The blade seems to hold an edge longer than anything else I've used (more than enough for skinning a deer or bear) and the handle comes in blaze orange which I like so I don't set it down and leave it in the woods lol I am sure there are quite a few options that will work in your price range though

Haven’t posted in this thread in a while, but have something here. Not much to do with hunting, but it’s a knife!







Probably doesn’t say much to most, but:

This is it!

Nice. He builds a solid knife.

About twelve years ago I bought one of Nathans knives for pig hunting over here. My god it took a wicked edge in A2 steel. It would go through an old boar like butter.



I ended up giving it to this roughneck who used to take me pigging.

^ The Shiv. A big knife. Perfect for the use you described, as the name suggests, haha.

Been a while they made anything in A2 though!

Clint made me a beautiful fillet knife out of magnacut. Unfortunately I don’t know how to post pics. I could email them to someone if they want to post the pics

Send me the knife and I'll post up some pics for you

I think there is a good thread on posting pics. I use tapatalk on my phone. It makes it super easy.
