I've toted a yellow handle Case 2 bld( I think they call it a trapper)But I use it for everything--I got skinning knives, gutting knives but always wind up using the Case--IMO cain't beat the steel that Case uses!!
I also found a diamond sharpener works best for me--But the name of the game is to keep the blade sharp--Touch it up after ever use--That way you want dull it so much and have to take off so much metal to get it sharp again!!
