I'm shopping for a new one now since I lost my ESEE AGK. Looking at a Benchmade Saddle Mountain in S90V, but following this thread to see what gets recommended

 

[shane45-1911]

For general woods use, or a dedicated skinner-type knife?

I have lots that fill both roles nicely. Becker makes several good "camp" knives, and I have used my BK18 extensively for skinning - it works great as it is all belly.

BK18 (ignore the .45 rounds - it was for another thread):

Buck Paklite Skinner is my current hunter. use it for field dressing, skinning, and quartering. fits easiily in my pack and my hand.
This is one knife I'd be interested in upgrading as it does start to dull fairly quickly working around a lot of hair and bone.

I don’t hunt as much as I did in my 20s and 30s, but it would depend on what kinda game I’m after. Buck fixed blades were/are always my choice.

Case Slab Side. A Christmas gift from my first employer, and the knife that started it all.

Edited to add: I haven't been out in pursuit of NY white tails in several years, but when/if I ever get out again, this knife will be on my hip. Despite having several knives that are probably better suited to the task at hand.

I only hunt rabbits and really you don’t need a knife to clean those but being a knife guy.

My hunting knife of choice is either my Buck 105 or my Cold Steel Pendleton Lite. Hopefully, I will have better luck this year. We didn't see any deer last year.

Spyderco Bow River Hunting Knives are very good. You will sharpen between field dressing to keep them sharp. They are easy to use when field dressing just about any game.

Ahti Vaara

Probably an old buck 102 great little hunting knife.

these two go together to make my favorite. One is very thick for the heavier stuff, the other extremely thin for skinning.

That’s a nice looking blade. I overlooked that one.

I love this 6-3/4" oal A. G. Russell Gents Hunter for the small game hunting that I do.

 

[Ryan Thompson]

I made my own for peeling and gutting rabbits.
And as always a swiss army knife

 

[Bob Denman]

I carried a Buck 112 for over 40 years, and it never let me down.

 

[J. Doyle]

Something like this is ideal a well rounded hunting knife for me.

Like most folks here, I have way more knives than I actually need, but I like my Buck119's for general hunting use. My favorite is my Buck 119Pro, Really don't need a knife quite that large to just skin a deer, but cutting up some camp meat, or a fish, or whatever I need to do, it does it just fine. Of course I nearly always carry some kind of trapper style or large stockman folder on trips, too.
