Ahh yes but they're all in my possession already, I don't have to post on a forum saying I need to get more

I need an incredibly sharp hunting knife but there is a large selection on Amazon and I'm not sure which is the right one to get. Very sharp but not that long.

I have a few.

Gerber STL 2.5 Pocket Folder Folding Knife
An opinel no. 8 I think
And a cheapo 35 quid full tang camping knife from Whitby Knives used for wild camping wood things.

The Gerber comes sharp as a sharp thing.

Manly Patriot in RWL-34 steel if you want a real knife that is well under £100.

What are you hunting?

 

[slinxy]

What are you planing to use the knife for?

I have serval… but prefer an axe..

The harder the steel the better edge you can get on it, the longer lasting the sharpness but the harder it is to re-sharpe it.

Also there’s the different types of grinds for different usage.

It’s just like kitchen knives, you won’t use a pairing knife to de-bone.. but if your skill enough with the cleaver.. you can do everything with it.

Hmm, I have a Gerber paraframe and tbh the blade is ****.

I've sharpened it multiple times, but it just dulls really quickly.

As in - cutting up 5 or 6 cardboard boxes to put in the recycling - quickly.

Maybe just my sharpening technique needs work...

I have serval… but prefer an axe..

Not sure a serval is going to much good for chopping wood, but will certainly help with the hunting side of things (if you train it properly!)

Mora Companion. I have a stainless steel version.

This thread is not as good as OP's magnificent Does anyone pay for a milkman? effort.

I like spoons, maybe we can play a game of knifey spoony

Easy just make one yourself. Remember to follow all the steps exactly as shown.

I'm too scared to suggest that I'm getting psycho vibes but you do seem to be a very nice man

It's always a trade off between "easy to sharpen" and "keeps an edge". If you're not confident sharpening, get one of the latter (harder steel) and have it done for you.

I have an Enzo - both a folding EDC and a lock knife for camping etc https://www.brisa.fi/en/brisa-knive...folding-knife/brisa-birk-75-d2-sc-curly-birch
