I used these four everyday when I worked as a guide on a hunting preserve. The top one was my EDC, the wee one was great for delicate skinning (for trophies that clients wanted stuffed by our taxidermist).
A classic US made Marble's, great knife for a very good price (the sheath sucks, though).
Some Barkies. The Settler doesn't go hunting. Surprisingly (at least for me) the Mountain Man is the one I use the most.
A couple of Fallknivens.
This leuku-inspired attemptnife was my atempt to come up with an "everything" knife and I've got to say, it workechopping well from choping wood to skinning and butchering mountain goats (I love to chase goats around the mountains). It also carves some mean spoons (the one in the picture is from a tree that has toxic sap... live and learn).
A classic trailing point skinner by one of my favourite Argentine bladesmiths. I used to handle some sales for this maker and sold this particular knife to a fellow from a far away province, he somehow ran into my dad and sold him the knife, my dad then gave it to me.
A 5" D2 Tusker by Scott Gossman.
My first good hunting knife (my dad bought it from a local bladesmith when I returned from boarding school). It's full of scratches, but the edge is perfect. It's been with me all over South America.
