MY current favorite hunting knife
29/10/11 07:02 AM

http://www.eka-knivar.se/en/products/2/hunting/

A Swedish brand that makes all sorts of knives, including this "swingblade".

I bought one with a yellow handle for me, and one with an orange handle for my wife. Just so we know who's knife is who's.

The bright handle colors make them easy to find in the undergrowth when you have to put it down for a minute while gutting an animal. Not to mention if a pile of guts or intestines cover it, as I know several guys who have had a hard time finding their knives in such situations when it's getting dark in the late afternoon.

The quality of the knife seems to be high, yet is decently priced compared to similar products. The gutting blade also works like it should, with virtually no chance of nicking the gut open. So far I've gutted a half a dozen moose with it, and haven't had a single complaint.

The scabbard is the one weak point IMO, as it seems a little flimsy. But no problems so far, so it might work out fine. Time will tell.

It might not be a beautiful handcrafted collectors item, but as a hunting tool, it's great. I've come to appreciate synthetic handle materials for knives like these that get covered in blood and guts.
