Thread: Recommendations for a folding knife for field dressing.

The mercator is a cool old school knife. Plenty of more modern options:
Ontario RAT I in D2 steel (or the RAT II for a smaller knife)
Gerber Gator is a classic hunting folder
Cold Steel Ultimate Hunter
Check out the benchmade hunter series folders if you have plenty of coin.

I have used the RAT I and the Gerber as a hunting knife both are great. Currently running a small benchmade fixed blade which is nice knife. I use to use the mercator a lot but wouldn't bother with one now, but that is just me.
