I got this as a wonderful Christmas gift from my daughter & son-in-law.  What a heck of a knive by Schrade - with imitation stag handles, and wickedly sharp too!

Schrade Uncle Henry Elk Hunter 182UH.

That’s a nice one. I like the height of the blade. Nice a beefy.

Kephart pattern. 4-4.5”, leather stealth. Many knife vendors offer a Kephart-type knife with their own unique twist.

I have a couple of older Ruana knives.  Made in Montana. When I worked at Microtech the owner sharpened both of them and was very impressed with the steel.  It is very hard and keeps an edge a long time.  Ill try to post pics.

I’ve got an old Western sheath knife I got as a young scout.  

Light construction but a good slicer.  It’s a nostalgia thing for me so I carry it in the woods a lot.  

Like my Gerber Strongarm as a general blade and still like my Buck 119.

I’ve enjoyed my Becker BK 7.   It’s a monster but fun.  

Overall, I still really like my first one, the Western.  Upswept clip point, thinner blade for slicing.  Not the greatest steel but just fulfilling to me to use it.

A pair of ancient Buck's, A 102 and 103.

Those two have skinned and processed everything from squirrels to deer. They're not sexy,expensive or cool but they've done the job for a couple of decades without fail.

I actually got that as a Christmas present. Those blades are no joke.
Also, for heavy duty my ESEE 6 is great but wish I also got an ESEE 4.

I have two Ruanas that my great grandfather bought from the maker.  I dont take them into the woods though.  A buddy from the Marines makes knives (Grit City Knives in Tacoma) and I have two of his.

An older DH Russel Canadian Belt Knife.  Last season I used my friend's replaceable blade scalpel style knife and it worked really well; I might end up buying one for next season.

Only fixed blades I own. The cheesy one came free with a pair of boots, the other I bought. I carry a lock back blade, generally.

I think it's likely my Puma White Hunter in Pumamaster Steel & stag handle. My Dad used the Bowie version  when I was growing up & gave me the White Hunter.

It's my typical woods carry.

I've been very happy with the Gerber Strongarm

I've got a few cheaper Buck fixed blades that have been serving me well for years. They get regular use on the farm and sharpen nicely when its time to butcher deer and goats.

I also like my Puma but I lost so many knives that i typically use cheap ones these days ....
