Sorry to do this to you guys, but this indeed, is another knife buying topic. :foot: I'm buying a HI Khukuri to serve as my camp knife, specifically the 15 inch Ang Khola.
As such though, I want a smaller knife 3 1/2-4 1/2 inches, preferably on the smaller side, to serve as a hunting + skinning knife for smaller game. VG10 Seems to be the cheaper but still effective steel but if there's a better type available for my price, I'm not going to complain
My price range is around 100 dollars and I don't want anything like a C36 Cold Steel. I was looking more at Bark River, A.G. Russel, Benchmade, etc. I like the rounder blades and it def. has to be a fixed blade. Aesthetically it can vary.
The problem for me is that there's just so much available and honestly I don't know that much about steel grades and such.
