[QUOTE="gcamp54, post: 334618, member: 16056"] I have a box filled with knives but lately I've narrowed it down to 3 I presently use for hunting. There are a lot of great knives out there which is almost as fun as guns. I have found that you get what you pay for in knives just like anything else. It's all about the steel and how it's heat treated. I have a custom knife with an ATS34 blade by Juda that I skinned and boned two antelope this year without loosing any edge sharpness. I also have a Cold Steel Woodsman which has an excellent edge and is a great all around hunting/butchering knife. So far I've only used it for butchering. It keeps an extremely sharp edge. The Buck mini Alpha Hunter I have as a back up and is a great knife to carry because of it's size. I never know it's on my belt. The ATS34 blade on this Buck keeps a good edge. I plan to use my new Bark River Gamesmen next year which I already know I'm getting for Christmas. Bark River uses a convex blade so I've already had to research how to sharpen that blade design. It doesn't seem very difficult at all. The A2 steel and heat treatment they use has a great reputation. I don't anticipate having to sharpen it that often.
