So I Broke down, and bought two cheep CHINA made knives. A Mossburg Field Dressing Knife (16.00) and a Boker Magnum Classic Hunter, (19.00).

The Magnum, is a little nicer looking, a little tighter, and a little heaver, (9.8 oz) and a little narrower. (3/4")

The Mossburg, 9.4 oz, 7/8" wide.

Both have VERY small laynard holes.

Both are, 'bone' saw blades, not wood saw blades.

The Mossburg has the blade releases, in the middle of the back of the knife, the Magnum has them at the back. However the, 'hook' for the gut hook blade, the point sticks out. So if you are using one of the other blades, it can poke your hand.

Will try them, and see how they work. How well the edge holds up. How well the bone saw works.

Very Surprised, at the quality, for 16 & 19 bucks. But I suppose if you pay someone .50 cents a hour !

My opinion, a gut hook blade is a answer to a question no one asked.

Yes I have used them. But can do just as well with a straight blade, and my finger.

Don't need the extra blade, and the width & weight that goes with it.

Still looking for C1068 (
