I like USA western fixed for deer.
German is good too. puma skinner, and old wustof hunter, and a little Kuno Ritter Hubertus.
I really like my helle, but it is a newer acquisition.
The out door edge is always around as a back up but i have never used it on a deer.
The big western stays in the door pocket of my truck, you never know.

They have a few i like better and was watching them for awhile, i picked this one up for $140 which was much cheaper than i had been seeing over nearly a year’s time.

Anything with an orange grip. So much easier to find in the leaves by a gut pile. Not particular on the brand but have a couple of Benchmade.

Yeah, at one point , Buck made some orange handles, may still, i dont, but myself and dad used them a lot , he has been gone for 20 years, so been awhile, another reason, i liked the outdoor edge, had orange handles.

One Ive made for myself usually a light small fixed blade made from cpm154, AEB-L, cpm3v or so on.. I often make my fishing knives and hunting knives with blaze orange g10 handles so they are easy to find when I lay them down.

I also enjoy older western knifes. The buck 119 is my go too on deer. Everyday carry is a case stockman.

Anyone use Wiebe? For the money, those look like nice knives.
I got some type of bone handle gut hook dad gave me when I killed my first buck for the field. As far as working up my deer at home I like to use a rapala 9 in and rapala 5 in filet knives. Simple, sharpen easy, I just like ‘em!
Also, I saw a wood handle knife in a post that has a folding blade and you let the blade out then turn the little piece at the top of the handle locking the blade in, just wanted to say my dad designed some bone/antler handled similar to that and has sold hundreds through the years at Boonesborough, Blue Licks, Friendship, etc…doesn’t make them anymore.

I use an old-school Buck 110. It holds an edge well, is durable, and fits in my hand well. I can use it on several deer a year between sharpenings.

Love the old Western knives with the wrapped handles! I need to track them all down & take pics....
In the kitchen, I pretty much only use Rada - gotta a whole knife block full of various shapes & sizes and seems like I use most of 'em two or three times a week, depending on what I'm cutting up. Also use them for deer processing (after the gutting, skinning & quartering is complete).
Meanwhile, the hubby was so bowled over by the hand forged Damascus steel knife I got him for Christmas that I'm doing a repeat for his birthday next month... and the same guy had a cute little one - on the left - that I couldn't resist buying for myself!
