        I decided to try a different brand because of the high marks I have read on it. I just ordered this one from Cabela's.

          Maybe a little overkill but I usually have a Gerber Gator folder on my belt and a Buck 110 and Leatherman in my pack. I can't get another knife as sharp and stay as sharp as the Buck!

            I've had lots of good knives over the years. I used a pair of Benchmade folders for many years and love the size and build of those knives. I especially like the Osborne designs from this company, though I think most are discontinued.

            Today I carry a BladeTech. I'll admit that they are expensive and that the first one I own was given to me as a gift from the owner with my name laser engraved on the blade, so that one means something to me. However, they are the best edge holding knives I've ever owned, bar none. Ever skin a giraffe? We shot two big bull giraffes this summer in Zim within 5 minutes of each other. Both had to be skinned and loaded on a trailer before dark. The PH I was working with tried to "forget" to give my knife back, said it was without a doubt the finest knife he had ever used. (BladeTech Wegner Pro Hunters model) That says a lot if you ask me, those guys see a lot of knives come through camp. They know good cutlery when they see it.

            My newest BladeTech is the smaller Ganyana model. I carry it every day. I almost lost it back in September at the airport, left it clipped to my pants. Thankfully the TSA agent let me run it back to my checked baggage that had not been scanned yet and I stuck it in there! That would have been a heart breaker.

                I had a Kershaw that was my favorite knife my grandpappy gave me.
                I lost it at a fair a few years back .

                Man, I sure would like to have it back.





























                j/k .
                I now own 2 open assist Kershaws.
                I left all of my skinning knives at the skinning rack at my ET lease last week. I won't be back there for 2 weeks to see if someone returned them to my camper so I had my wife pick me up a Skinning knife from walmart today to get me through this weekend.
                We'll see how good the chinese can make them.
                I wonder if my meat will get lead poisoning?

                  That Big Game one looks like a good choice.

                      I ought to be wiped for all the Benchmade knives I have lost over the years. My best friend's dad was a sales rep for him and he gave a ton to me. I keep telling TC that when I grow up and old enough to care for a good knife I want him to make me one.
