Man so many great knives on this thread. Just like looking at all of them.
Bowhunting is a passion, not an obsession. Its just hard for my wife to tell the difference sometimes.

X2 the Bucklite.  

I can afford a Randall and have nicer & more expensive knives but the Buck is my first choice every time.

I always have a Buck 110-112 on my belt or backpack. Plus  a solid blade custom for the hard work.  I like to change the customs from time to time.

To me, this is the perfect hunting knife. I carry it in my backpack and a swiss army knife in my pocket.

My father made this for me when I was 2 in '85.  His brother did the engraving.  It's the only knife I need in the field.  Light, simple, hand crafted.

This old Camillus center lock has been my go to deer knife for over 30 years. It hasn't let me down yet.

Visiting the kids, so this is the only picture on my phone. All blades except the large Livesay have been used on game. I carried the Buck on my belt and the schrade in my fanny pack for many years.
My wife has claimed the schrade, so i now carry the livesay air assault in my fanny pack. After re-profiling the the air assaut I now use it for everything from processing game to splitting kindling for my solo stove. I need to make a leather sheath for hunting to tone down the tactical look, doesn't match the long bow.

This is one I made 3 years ago & it's been my go-to ever since. I've yet to find something to dislike about it.....

robtattoo, I sure don't find anything to dislike about it.

That has to be a universally useful knife. I can't think of any chore short of chopping down trees you can't do nicely with that one.

These three cover 50 years of deer hunting.

   

Gutted my first deer in 1965 with the little Mora on the left.
 My wife gave me the one on the right when we
lived in Alaska in 1973.
 My daughter gave me the folder in the middle.  She found it in Italy.

My next one is in my shop about ready for scales.
