RE: Want to purchase a new Knife
There are so many good kvives out there. A few of my favorites are the Cold Steel Master Hunter. It has a carbon Five blade which will rust if you don't keep it clean and lightly lubed but its a great knife. I use the Gerber Gut hook that uses the Stanley drywall blades(replacable) It works great. I carry the little Sagen saw with the protective plastic tip to keep from rupturing anything inside. I always carry a Bucklite folder as well. Another good set is the Kershaw Alaskan Blade Trader which has an upsweep hunting blade, a skinner with a Hugh gut hook and a good saw blade as well. Model 1098AK. It all fits in a good leather sheath.
Perhaps the best knife going is the Grohmann Original. Made in Canada. Holds an edge like few others. The best 70.00 dollar knife I have seen.. Do a search for Grohman Knives. Its a Russel design.
