    +1 for the opinels for a field knife. I use a little number 8 and a number 10 and find them perfect for anything from skinning possums to processing deer in the hills.
    Both have the point ground down to more of a drop point and the handles rounded at the ends so they're more comfortable to hold. No matter how wet they get I have always been able to open them by turning them around and smacking them on something hard.
    Just found the Mercator's not quite as comfortable to hold and the edge didn't last as long as the opinels.
    At home for processing I have an assortment of victory and victorinox skinning and boning knives.
    Also a couple of custom made knives and several other bits and bobs such as the bacho ones.
    Always seem to reach for the same ones though.
    viper and caberslash like this.
