The "Hunter" model was Bo's favorite blade shape, although I believe his model preference was the Model #7, Fisherman/Hunter. Makes sense: A great all-round blade shape for a multitude of uses..."BUT"...For gutting a deer, etc. a drop point does a cleaner job and allows you to pull the keen edge towards you, while "skating the skin" and opening that critter up like a "zipper". A Model #20, #21, #22, etc. gives you more of a cutting edge for "skinning that hide"...just sayin'. If we were have a "do-anything-purpose" build, I'd all over the #3 or #7 like white-on-rice! Stay Sharp, Capt. Chris
