RE: Field Dressing Kit - Revised
I have the gerber exchange a blade for field dressing. Use the gut hook blade to cut skin over guts. use blade to cut out heart, lungs, esophagus, and guts. If you shoot a mature deer it may be hard to cut the breast bone with knife blade so I switch to the saw blade and cut the breast bone and then cut the pelvis bone. switch back to knife blade and cut around rectum and remove all guts including lungs and heart in one smooth pull. Field dressing done. Now for processing I use a cheapo fillet knife it get the job done for me. Just make sure to get the smallest fillet knife so you can make more precise cuts. Also I will use a sawzall if available to cut legs off which is easier and faster than finding the joints and cutting there. I Really think the kits are worthless and probably filled with crap cutlery unless you would get a really expensive kit. Save the money and skip the kit and buy a nice meat grinder and sausage stuffer.
