Little Hidden Gems

I was picking up some goat feed at Tractor Supply about 3 months ago.  As I was browsing the little bins while waiting in line, I found this little hidden gem for $10



The blade is 3 3/4" long with a overall length of 8 3/4".  The point I like the most of this workhorse is that the blade from butt until about 1 1/2" from the tip it is a full 1/4" thick.


The finger grooves provide more that enough purchase to really crank on it and not worry about your hand losing hold.




The knife is butt heavy, but easily utilized.  I have used it pretty heavy for the past 3 months and have not had to resharpen it since I put a razor edge on it when I bought it.


There is no name on it.  There are no markings as to the steel used for the blade.


It is a simple and stout  workhorse.  This fall I will see how well it skins deer & pigs.

      One must get up early to beat me to the tomfoolery.

    Re-stretching some barbwire fence is what got my thumb; this time.

    But, I have sliced my fingers up on sharp blades to many times to count. :)
