Kershaw blade trader is pretty much a 1 knife(handle at least) for everything. I have one as well I like it but I find the drop point doesn't hold a edge for a long period. The gut hook/skinneris a seperateblade-in a word LARGEbutfixed the problem I have with most gut hooks being to shallow to be useful(plug up way to easy on our deer and forget about them for moose or elk). This one no problem for any of the 3. Oddly unlike the drop point my skinner/guthook holds an edge awesome. I sharpenedthe gut hookonce with 400, 800 wet sand paper and a buffing attachment on my die grinder. The trader also comes with a saw blade, fillet/boning knife is seprate and really a whole kitchen knife set if you like.

As to the normal knife with a gut hook..no thanks. Ijust prefer using my 3.5" drop point forunzipping! Guess I just like "kickin' it old school"...[&:]
