Your jack-of-all-trades food prep knife

[DangerZone98]

Let's try something a little different. If you could only have one knife for all your food prep needs, what would it be? Ideally, this is a knife that you would be comfortable carrying around whether for EDC or the outdoors. If you want to include hunting/field dressing applications, feel free to do so. The only restriction is that this one knife will handle all jobs related to food.

Pics would be highly appreciated!

Looking forward to seeing some examples. I have to admit, my latest I have used is a generic plastic handled serrated steak knife, cutting up chicken for stew, and some celery, not at the same time, of course, but handy all around.

Probably my Benchmade Puukko 200. Ergonomic handle, very tough steel, and long enough to reach the bottom of the peanut butter jar. Would also do fine at field dressing big game and general camp chores.

My EDChef from David Mary . Equally at home opening concrete bags, dressing rope, spatchcocking poultry, and dicing vegetables. This bad boy is my go to sheath knife for everything.

He, he, you said food processing and EDC carrying ! I would probably choose this one, the shortest of my gaucho knives (bottom one). Although I'd prefer the medium one (middle) for its perfect balance but it would be a bit long for peeling garlic...

Those are lovely... Who is the maker?

The Aurora 2.

This is for red meat, what Moses is for the Red Sea.

Beautiful blades. Really like the handles.

David makes awesome knives. Thanks for sharing this.

Those are all made by Galin Donchev from Bulgaria. He went by the handle of "limonad" here on BF's Knife Maker's market.

Nice! I like a Mora Kansbol for my food prep needs. Love the grip of that one, and the entire package with the sheath included is lightweight.

In all honesty , these two knives do just about anything I most commonly need from a knife.

Interesting shape. What's the steel on that?
