That's my mom in the very first photo. I like her expression and pose, obviously related to the size of the beast that my dad just shot. :thumbup:

Your mom looks stunned.

You may have said this before, but I'm too lazy to go look for it. What is the knife on your dad's belt?

She's no doubt thinking about their freezer situation, as in a severe lack of space.

What he was carrying, and what he used to dress his elk, was the larger of the two knives shown below:

It is made by Bob Ham, and has a six-inch blade. My dad's definition of a proper knife handle is that it is made out of stag or stag, and if stag isn't an option, then stag is acceptable.

My grandfather sounds exactly the same, he has a few hunting knives and there all stag. Along with most of his slipjoints, He said he'd like a Busse if they came in Stag
