I like to travel light. So my hunting kit is designed to allow me to hunt with a very small fanny pack. In it is this knife that can't weigh more than a couple of ounces. It is made of D-2 tool steel and is wicked sharp. Dresses pigs or deer and just needs a few swipes on a stone to have it razor sharp again.. It came from a knife makers supply. There are several on the internet.
This one cost about $25.. I chose not to put scales on it to keep it light and very easy to clean. I have a few different blade shapes, all of them are outstanding. Check it out.

Good idea, Pat.  That one will do the trick.
Good judgement comes from experience.  Experience comes from bad judgement.

If your going to use a kit blade,  BE SURE that it is as Pat described, D2 or another good quality steel, properly heat treated.  Many of the kits have import blades, mystery steel, mystery h/t etc... do proper research.

After watching a Native friend take apart five caribou with a fifteen dollar knife my views changed...pretty is as pretty does

I set out a while ago to reduce my herd of 40 bows...And I am finally down to 42

I have a small neck knife that I keep in a small pack as well. I added a small loop of orange paracord so if I set it down in the dark it wouldn't disappear in the leaves or brush. X2 on the steel also. Make sure it's quality steel.

Yep nice knife.
I also like skeleton knives. (No handles or scales).
Good heat treated carbon like 1095 is easy to sharpen super durable and great steel.
I love esee knives.
