[QUOTE="D$tring, post: 2570768, member: 114263"] ☝🏼This. I am also a backcountry backpacker and use the gutless method exclusively. Nicest fixed blade knife I have held. Good balance of light weight, and strong as well as sharp and holds an edge. Blade is proper depth and width to do great for all around gutless breakdown. I still carry an outdoor edge in my pocket for daily use, cord cutting, grouse cleaning etc. I have used havalon (only good for caping faces imo), benchmade altitude (struggled with grip a bit, but held edge well through a couple deer) argali carbon (good with better grip but struggled when cold/slippery and blade was a little large edge to back for my taste). However Used it for two deer two elk and a moose before needing sharpening. I feel the MKC speedgoat is perfect for all around backpack hunting. Only gripe — gotta be dang fast on the internet checkout when they are available. Sell out in 1-2 minutes every time; took me several tries to score one. [/QUOTE]
