Let's See Some Hunting Knives

I’ve just been to blade show Texas. Would love to make it to Atlanta someday as it’s supposed to be better

It is huge by comparison… quite a sight to behold

Buck 110 Drop Point. One sharp knife. Used a lot of knives in my day but this one feels great in the hand and drop point is so much better than the clip blade

Two knives made for me by my good friend Ted Mitchell
The stag horn is my favourite little skinner made with Sandvik steel
The one with the white mircarta scales is a gift for my son made of nitro V steel.
Both scary sharp, hold a fantastic edge and easy to sharpen

Ted putting the finishing touches in my sons knife. Not bad for an old 80 plus year old bloke that still hunts, works with his son makes knives as a hobby

Unless it’s for a specific utility, I don’t even window shop mass manufactured knives anymore. Even if you have to save up for a while, buy a custom knife at least once in your life. It’s a very different experience and bringing it on hunts will add another layer of enjoyment to your experience. I would rather pass down a smaller number of knives to my descendants than accumulate a Chinese-made pile of “stuff” for them to sell when I’m dead.

Soooo true! Life is too short to carry a mass manufactured knife with no story behind it

Definitely, I had 100+ industrial knives, nowadays sold most of them, just keeping the handful of custom blades made for me, which will pass to my grandson.

That model of Mora was probably the last production knife I bought and have been pleased with. It gets most of its use roughing out between the axe and the carving gouge stages when carving spoons and utensils. It’s also skinned a critter or two and had a place on my kit in the military.
