CRKT Minimalist cleaver vs Rill Simple Tools Gut Hook Knife

Opinel, Mora, CRKT minimalist, traditional folders like Case or GEC, Spyderco Salt, hawkbill knife (MKM makes a pretty neat one).

It remains to be seen how the ABS plastic holds up, but these (hopefully) won't see much use in our kits, so we should see pretty good life. Make sure that you get it in the sheath properly so that it can't rotate and expose the cutter opening..

My priorities are towards concealeable fixed blades. I highly prefer belt carry knifes as while i exchange pants and thus pocket sizes and arrangements regulary (office jeans at work, cargos in my free time, bike pants on the bike), my belt always gonna be my belt and on every pant, be it summer, winter, walking or riding my motorbike.

Let's look at the most budget-friendly knife in today's list: [ Music ] number 10 outdoor edge gut hook knife this full-legged deep-bellied skinner is...

Great knife, except it just falls out of it sheath. And after weeks of this happening it finally fell out and i didnt feel it. So now its gone. Was a good fit and sharp durable, just sheath was no good and now a waste of money because now its gone!

TLDR: A must have for hunters, but I would pay 3x the price for a sturdier, slightly better designed version of this. I have been using these for a few years, and before it was using Gerber’s EZ Zip until it was discontinued. In my mind, this is an essential piece of kit for field dressing and makes the process much faster. The best part is that you can get the replacement blades at any hardware store for pennies, so there’s no reason not to have a fresh blade, which helps it do it’s job

The sheath adds so much value to the product and I am already looking for my next variant to get. I would recommend this to anyone that in the market currently.

There are two negative things about this product is the sheath. It's circular and does not full cover or fit the knife well, and the other is the pocket to store the extra blade. It's too small to place the extra blades with its container inside unless you insert the container a perpendicular manner. If you do, you can't close the pouch

Here lately, I’ve been sitting on the porch in the evenin working on making little feather sticks with it for lighting fire with. I have to say it does indeed work pretty well for that. Maybe I’ll take this little cleaver with me the next time I go deer hunting out in West Texas and see how she holds up in a camping sort of situation. I have to be completely honest here though

He said all three items worked great when he used them after getting 2 deer. Stayed sharp and did what they were designed to do.
