  1. Whats the difference between a "knife" a "skinner and a "drop point skinner. Remeber you are talking to a total newbie.

    The other thing I meant to ask is folding or fixed?

    I found this on ebay. Is something like this sufficient? Remember for the moment I'm just hunting pests: rabbits, foxes feral cats etc. Maybe the odd goat, but that wouldn't be very often.

  2. Hi guys,

    Yet again I say thanks for all the valuable info I've learnt in the short time being a forum member.

    This one is about the knives. Any informaiton I can get, positive or negative would be great.

    When you buy a knife, what do you look for. Lets start out by saying I haven't been on hunts yet. I have yet to get my .22LR and .17HMR, but when I do i'll be shooting pests: foxes, rabbits, feral cats, goats etc.

    I've seen so many different knives on the market, ranging from the 30 dollar ebay job, up to the 300 or 400 top of the line mega special knives in hunting stores.

    How do I know what is a good knife to buy. Things I am thinking are a consideration are size, type, material and life of blade, if it has extra funcionality on the rear of the blade, the handle type, construction and material.

    Anyone got some opinions, advice on what to get, what to stay away from?

    Thanks again,

    Jase
