Had a friend that I just couldn't talk into using a knife. The method I like best. But he ended up picking up a Zulu Spear from Africa. Man on man did that take out the hogs. Makes real short work of a mean ole boar. Watched him put down a 360 pound boar one night. This was several years back. I'll look for the picture of him with the hog and spear. If I find it I'll post it. Didn't have a digital back then.
