I like it a bunch! Nice to see the deep gut hook, too many are made shallow and they seem to cut through and tear out before completely making the cut.

Frank,
How about making me a nice skinning knife similar to this? Any handle you like, I just want a nice, functional skinning knife that holds a nice sharp edge.
Thanks, BowMike.(Mike Tibbits)

Nice blade! I used a gut hook for the first time yesterday and really liked it. What is the best way to resharpen a gut hook?  Thanks, Ben

I use a rod wrapped with 240grit and work it  upto 600 grit. slide it in the slot and should sharpen fine. If it is real dull use q 120 grit to start.<><
