[QUOTE="jpndave, post: 2570722, member: 5437"] I have a ton of tabs open looking for a similar solution. I have the mentioned Cold Steel Master Hunter (mine is older with the gut hook) It's a good knife but heavy. Tyto finisher - Kifaru one in orange/zombie green obnoxious color combo, but it's less likely to go unnoticed and left on the mountain. Love this little knife and it's staying in my pack! The scalpel blades are great for what they are but not rigid enough for everything. I had the previous ti version, my son now owns that. I prefer the shape of the finisher. [URL unfurl="true"]https://kifaru.net/store/accessories/knives/kifaru-logo-tyto-knife/[/URL] For me it's going to be the Tyto Finisher plus a fixed lightweight knife (currently searching to buy) in the kill kit. I also have the GRÄNSFORS SMALL HATCHET which may not be in that kill kit but available to break down bone, etc. [URL]https://www.gransforsbruk.com/en/product/gransfors-small-hatchet/[/URL] So, here are a bunch of links for reference.
