Tried out my new waterfowler knife!

[Stinkyrat]

Howdy all,

Decided a couple weeks ago to stop using my huge fillet knife and get something more practical for dressing birds. Went out hunting today and bagged a couple birds and low and behold my knife was delivered at the doorstep when I got home! Almost like they knew I would need it 

Works great, I like the shorter blade. Seems to give it more control when I'm breasting out a duck. I ended up with the build up waterfowler made from 154CM steel off their website. All in all super happy!

Looks like the perfect knife for ducks. How much Stinkyrat? Send me the link. I might need one.

Great knife. I have one of the original prototypes of this knife. I would have preferred it to not change at all from the one I tested for them but it changed some. Yours is very nice looking!!!

Thanks guys! Think this one is a keeper!

Sako here is the link, they don't have the 154CM steel ones now but they do have the 420HC steel versions for a little cheaper at $40:

quite a few good deals on there, I would have grabbed the caping knife too just because its $15 but basically does the same thing the waterfowler will do.

Just put in an order, very nice knife.

I may need to order me one of those... Or I may just attempt to make one. My brother made something somewhat similar.

If your open for options.  About the best and easiest thing to use for ducks and geese is a small fillet knife.  I have tried all sorts of various knives on birds over the years.

I use a paring knife, razor sharp off my Worksharp sharpener. :-)

I use the havalon piranta and it works perfectly.  But, it certainly doesn't look as nice as the Buck.

You know that's exactly what I felt this knife resembled was a paring knife... but I talked myself out of that thought. I NEEDED a new knife specifically for duck hunting.... atleast that is what I told the wife and it worked

I've got a small woodsman buck knife my mom got me for Christmas last yr. She asked what I would like, so I said a new duck hunting knife. I really like it and it zipps through them birds
 Really like it

If that's what it takes.       It's a nice looking knife.  I've used the Havalon as well, but won't blow a new blade on ducks.

Got mine in the mail today with a surprise, 154cm on the blade. Way worth the $40.

That's awesome, and saved ammo money to boot! Good work!

Used mine on about a dozen birds so far and worked through them without a hitch, think you'll really like that knife!

Meant to ask 92 but how did you end up getting to test the prototype model?
