I’ve got a Havalon Piranta replaceable scalpel blade knife that I picked up off here a few months back. My thoughts- amazing for gutting & skinning. Good for butchering so long as you avoid use on or around bone & the blades will last for ages. Because they’re not designed to be sharpened they make em out of pretty tough steel so I was pleasantly surprised how long they’ll stay sharp for, but they will dull on bone & can snap if you try flex em around joints
In the field I tend to use it primarily for gutting & skinning & I’ll use my Mercator for everything else. With the back legs I’ll butterfly them in the field to remove the bone & keep meat in one piece. At home I’ll then use the Havalon to seam out the individual cuts.
