I have puma IP with an olive wood handle I've used for 10+ years that's a booger to get sharp but stays sharp through 5 -6 deer dressing before needing Sharpening

I have probably in the ballpark of 100 knives because my wife and kids and everyone else that knows me knows how much I like knives.With that said;for skinning and parting out a deer I only use Old Timer Sharpfinger knives.I have every model they have ever made and have used them for at least the last 25-30 years.For me it's a no brainer for deer hunting.All of my other knives are just case candy.

My favorite too. I use a fixed blade buck knife with a gut hook and a serrated bottom third of the blade for my gutting and skinning.

Mora or knives of alaska

Spyderco.Benchmade.

I use a buck 110 and a schrade sharp finger.

Havalon

Mike Miller semiskinner

I have a Buck "Personal" model that I bought back in 1970 while stationed at Ft Benning, GA. I paid $6.00 for it at the PX. The MSRP on it is now $52.00. I still have it, and it will always remain my "go to" blade.

I'd like a Mike Miller....one day.

Gerber paraframe, Buck Paklite, Havalon Barracuda, SOG Field Pup, among others.

Custom knives are addicting. This guy is great to deal with and will try to find whatever you are looking for.

Old kershaw I bought about ten years ago. Holds an edge better than any knife I've had

I have the Outdoor Edge Swing Blaze, I like the knife as it holds an edge really well.

For skinning and trimming, the Outdoor Edge Razor Pro. I love that knife cleaning elk. For tough junk, I use an outdoor edge knife or one of my buck knives. Usually the hard blades are for separating large joints while quartering.

I have a knife almost exactly like the Swing blade, but it's a Leatherman. I've used to dress several hogs, no complaints. I also have a Spanish Muela that looks real similar to a Sharpfinger, forget the model, offhand, but it's the absolute sharpest knife I've ever had, not counting my Outdoor Edge Razor Pro. Depending on where I'm at in the dressing process, and how much I'm having to put my hands in the way, I might use 2 or 3 different knives while cleaning.

For skinning, I have a Wyoming Skinning knife. Works petty good for skinning.
