secretagentmole 1,701 Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 My hunting knife keeps getting appropriated for various odds and sods in the kitchen. I would not mind but when you come to sit down and do a quiet spot of rabbit gutting when out in the field, the fact that your knife is lurking somewhere in the food preparation area is a bit of a damned bind. Local auction had a few knives going in the latest sale, so I stuck a bid in on a few Hultafors Survival Knives, 5 green and one orange handled. The shop that was selling them had £15 per knife on the green ones and £10 per knife on the orange. Picked up the lot for under £52, Now 2 have instantly been commandeered for the kitchen (5 left) and 1 for the caravan. Leaves me 4 and I have not even been able to get out yet! Quote Link to post
porkycrook 466 Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 Whatever is going on here............................you expect to get out, who is going to protect us from the "G's" Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted April 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) So what? I have knives to test but not the opportunity to get out and test them (flu, real flu, damned awful if you have type 1 diabetes). Roger, there are others on here, like Archie, who are also accomplished Graham spotters! Edited April 27, 2013 by secretagentmole Quote Link to post

Craig Fosse 286 Posted April 28, 2013 Report Share Posted April 28, 2013 So what Nice haha What are the blades like mate? I'm looking for a decent blade at the moment I have a very sharp electricians fold away but it's getting onto its last legs, could do with something a bit better Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted April 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) The Mora Clipper is a superb knife, picked one up for a tenner at a game fair, they are very sharp, keep an edge well and get pinched at the earliest opportunity by blasted home chefs.... When I do get my hands back on it, it is a superb knife to use. I might have one of these Hultafors left by the end of the week so that I can use it. They are high carbon steel survival knives, not the sharpest out of the box, but a good keen edge, that with the extra carbon should last a while!

Craig Fosse 286 Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Sounds like something to keep an eye open for I think !! Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted April 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 A Clipper is a superb knife, these one I have just bought are more for field work, but sharpened properly they will do the job! Quote Link to post
woodcote1 88 Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 My hunting knife for the last few years. Fantastic for rabbits and pigeons. Quote Link to post
