I believe the answer to the best combat knife question can never be found. So, I like to approach this in a different manner.
Let say I got drawn for bull elk this year (I am still waiting for the result). And let say I saw a trophy bull elk with a 7x7 rack in the wood and he is coming straight at me. Of course I will let him have a round of 300WM out of my Winchester Sharpshooter. But, what if he does not go down and still coming at me full speed and my gun is jammed (God forbid).
The question is: which knife currently available that will let me perform a "one cut stop" on this bull elk. I would like something that is above the 90% chance with a correct cut placement. Any opinion is welcome, but an actual/similar situation is even better. Remember, I want a knife to backup my gun, period. It will not be used to pry, cut wood, built shelter, cook dinner, etc.
