Post by: daddymonster on October 04, 2013, 02:34:00 AM
Hey guys i am getting into pighunting. I want a knife that would be good for sticking hogs and boning out. Is it impossible or do you guys have any suggestions¿
ps i like a non-slippery grip.

For sticking and boning.....hmmm...Take a look at the Alaskan Knife Works Jeager. I love mine, may not be long enough for a sticker though.

For skinning try a stripper blade.  Here is my hog dressing kit...tippit

You looking for a production knife or custom?  As far as production knives, the old timer 150T would work pretty well.  Here's a picture of an older one that I use quite a bit cleaning deer.  308 Win round for comparison.  Mine is an older carbon steel version but it is still available in stainless steel.  The link below will take you too it. There are a lot of "higher end" knives that would work well as well but this one's cheap enough that you won't mind getting it dirty chasing pigs.  For a custom knife, I'll let some of the other guys chime in.
