Loppers. Can be done with just a knife with a little practice. But we use poppers to save time/headache by the end of season we do it with just a knife.

Cordless sawzall works like a charm!Comment

Pair of good brush loppers and a box cutter is alll I need for whitetail and hogs. I just got finished with a couple elk and needed the sawzall.Comment

Wyoming saw. It's like a small, compact hacksaw. Much more sturdy.Comment

love my Wyoming saw.....the battery never runs low.Comment

All I need is a knife to quarter. Use a sagens field saw during gutting for sternum and pelvisComment
-
Only use a Buck 110, unless the deer is large enough to do some ribs, then just use the old hacksaw. Never used a saw for field dressing or quartering.........Comment

No saw for me . Do everything with a knife and loppers . If keeping the ribs ,very rarely happens I use a large meat cleaver .Comment

Loppers work great. I originally got the idea from seeing workers at Midway Processing in Katy use loppers to remove the lower legs at the joints before taking the deer inside for processing. They have their intake system down like an efficient assembly line. Not necessarily vouching for their quality, just commenting about how quick and easy loppers are to use. I am also not knocking a cordless sawzall, just don't own one.Comment

The only thing you need a saw for is to cut the horns off. Everything else can be done simply and cleanly with a knife. No sharp bone edges or fragments to deal with that way.Comment

Best saw for field dressing/butchering?
Yup... Sawzall or loppers. Did it with a knife for years. I have it out for the head anyway so zip zip zip and I'm doneOriginally posted by Seacoal View PostI can do it with a knife, sawzall just makes it way easier
