Pretty fancy Browning there Watchmaker!! Nice. I kinda got a thing for knives, though I haven't bought any in a while now.

I have a folder (similar to Puma, German Solingen type) that I carry on my belt, does the job for most of what I need it for. It has the field knife, saw, gut blade, and a bird hook. I basically only use the field blade and sometimes the saw blade on larger animals to get thru the pelvic. And then in the truck I have a larger fixed blade, I think a Schrade, which has good weight to get thru the rib cage on larger animals. I do have a drawer full though, just those are the ones I'm using now. I was up in the Yooper (Michigan's Upper Peninsula) several times, got a nice Marble Hunter and also a couple Wolverine Knife Works blades. Kinda have collected a few, but there's really only so many I can use!! I must have a small pocket folder in every shooting vest I have, just to have one handy. Most I've won at shooting competitions, so don't remember what all I've got.

Speaking of how to field dress a deer, yes you can do it in a suit and tie and not look like a butcher!! Anus to snout, can be pulled out, wash your hands and you're done, Waidmannsheil, Dom.
