After 14 years as a custom knife maker, I finally took the step into production. I've partnered with White River Knife and Tool out of Fremont, MI to build my hunter design. The knife is 7 3/4" long with a 3 1/4" blade of CPM S35VN with various synthetic handles. This is basically the evolution of what I had in mind as the "perfect" deer hunting knife. Works for me, anyway.

That said, where the point falls in relation to the spine of the knife does make a difference. I personally like my tip about 1/4" below the spine, but other folks like a straight back or upswept tip.

It's obvious guys, you remove the folding part from the knife and it has no moving parts anymore 
Jokes aside, I had horrible experience when using folding knives for skinning/gutting so I'm never touching those ever again. Using folder as EDC, sometimes for backpacking, but ain't using it as hunting knife ever again
