Want you show me your hunting knife?

[Bladepeek]

Not the knife I carry, but a good friend of mine brought me a buck skinner like the one a few posts above and said "Make me one like this, but fancier".

Here are the three main knives that I carry.

My Randall Model 25 gets the heavy work done.
 

My Keith Murr knives handle the details.

WWII vintage Army aircorp survival knife built by Camillus.  I'm grateful to Sam Koger and Robin Severe for helping me restore it for many years of use to come.

That old Camillus is really neat!!     I also would love to have a Randell someday....always just out of my price range.

That is one serious blood-groove on that blade.

Since Mike Stenstrom (Maineac) showed you the knife he made for himself to match his own bow, how about a similar knife he made me to match my bow? The woods are Koa and Ebony with nickel silver bolsters, mosaic pins and Damascus blade. The bow is a Shrew Classic Hunter takedown with the matching Koa, black phenolic and Koa sapwood overlays. Outstanding bow -- outstanding knife!

   

Gotta say that there are some talented knife makers here, and I am privileged to own several beautiful knives made by a few of those guys, including Doug Campbell, Lin Rhea, Karl Andersen, Frank Scukanec, Clarence Smitherman and Shawn Swafford! These guys not only build knives that are gorgeous and exceptionally high quality, they are also all terrific people.

I've enjoyed the simplicity of this Tippit blade this season.  Just a quality tool without all the frills.

Doug Cambell and this knife is a workhorse.  Feels great in the hand and the looks don't hurt either.  Good luck on your quest Felix as there are many nice ones to chose from.

Some mighty fine looking knives you guys got!
I have a feeling this thread is gonna go on for a while..........  

[chinook907]

Like most here I have a bunch, here's a pic of the ones I use most often.  Usually one on my hip and one of the pocket knives in my... pocket.

 

From the top its a big sticker made by our own Lin Rhea, with a Kenny Rowe sheath.  A two blade Buck muskrat that I've had forever.  My Sticshooter knife with osage scales.  And a two blade KaBar 1030 that was my dad's.

And I feel I have to post a pic of Lin's knife before I drug it all over and used it on a bunch of critters.
 

[Stone Knife]

Nathan made mine, this one is so sharp it doesn't cut, it unzips them.

   

[straitera]

Used this KaBar for decades only to keep from losing my expensive skinners. Now an old friend. Just finished my own version of the Bark River Pro-Scalpel that will make the top 2 list all-time. Can't get pix to download.

This is a great thread! Just when I see the perfect knife, another is right behind. Too many to even name. Wow!! Great job folks!

ron w, I felt the same way about the Randalls. But with their leadtimes the way they are, I figured I could put 10% down and put $5/month in a savings account and by the time they finally got to my order it would already be paid for. I got mine simply because of the Randal history. Don't use it. I carry one of my own beat up knives, but it's nice to have a part of knife history that i can pass down to one of my boys. Wonder if Lin's lead time is long enough to do the same thing? His craftsmanship makes my Randal look like my first knife.

This little neck knife has become a favorite for several years, and it has found its way into numerous animals' innards.
 

[Bert Frelink]

Here's a couple of "Helle" blades that I finished of myself.
 

[njloco]

I haven't as yet used all of these, but my favorite is my long time companion is my Puma skinner which I bought around 1973. The arm guard knife I only just got but I am sure it will come in handy.
