I use a folding crossman that my dad bought me for my birthday 15yrs ago. I have cleaned & skinned every thing I shot since then with that knife. Last year I field dressed a deer for a buddy using his knife which had a gut hook. I do not remeber what brand it was but after using it my next knife will have a gut hook for sure. I really like the Buck or Kar-bar line.

A buck zipper has gotten most of the use the last severaly years. Very satisfactory. I've also had great luck with various gerbers and kershaws. I am a real fan of gut hooks--I no longer feel the need to pack around a wyoming knife. I prefer fixed over folding for a primary knife, but always keep at least 1 extra folder with me for Murphy's law. There's nothing like walking up on a downed animal to find your knife is back at the truck or atv a mile down the mountain!

Old timer 3 blade pocket knife. When sharpened correctly, you can't beat them in my opinion. It fits in my pocket daily and serves well for deer, turkey, and small game. When I butcher game, I use a Gerber fillet knife.

hiawatha,
those make some handy knives. I personally use the buck folding hunter. But i'm like Hiawatha. I got a whole set of tools I've made and scalpal I use for caping clients animals. I been to taxidermy school and believe me taxidermists really hate hacked up capes.

I use a Helle "Eggen" just a great, practically unbreakable piece of steel. U can use it as a razor too.
another knife I use daily is an Eka, model Nordic hunter. Handy little knife.
