RE: Butchering Knives,
Or you could just go for the gold now and just get a kit for the entire process. Some of my relatives bought me a skinning/butchering set for me for Christmas last year. Comes complete with a gambrel, hoist, 5 knives and a saw (multiple blades). I think the cost is between $80 and $90 though I have not honestly looked lately. It definitely made butchering my deer a heck of alot easier.
