Default RE: Help me pic a new knife

What is the main use you are going to be using it for ?
That is something to consider, as a taxidermist ,I want a knife that is light, has a very thin tip so that I can cape around the antlers, and one that will keep sharp for a long time.
None of those qualify in my book as a good skinner.
check any taxidermy supply house for a 4" Vitorinox knife should cost you $4 to $6, remove the handle and make an antler handle for it, then you'll have yourself a skinner, the other ones here might be good for gutting and other stuff.
