A retired butcher mate told me, "a knife for show on the belt, and real knives for butchering ...".

These are the knives I use the most for butchering animals especially at home. They live in a butchers knife roll with a small axe.

Two Victorinox butchers knives and a F-dick steel.

A knife I use a lot, one reason it was not in the photo as it was in a jacket pocket. I use it from everything to cutting large round hay bales string nets, to rabbits and deer.

A Jones Custom knife. (corrected from "James" - need to get glasses I think)
