No way. Did we just agree on something?

Anyone like this design or something similar?

Does that swing blade knife lock?

Havalon Piranta or Havalon Baracuta...uses replaceable scalpel sharp blades that you change when they get dull (4-5 deer for me). Blades cost like $8 for 12.

Yes it locks.
I like them.

i have one very similar. i use the guthook on it but always seem to go back to my Puma game warden for skinning

I always liked a short blade on a skinning knife.

The problems I'd have w/ a knife like are 2:
1. W/ a blade that broad, it's tough free up the anus if I'm going to completely gut the deer.
2. I don't like the handle to be so thin.
I also like rather short blades, usually 3-3 1/2". I'm not excited about gut hooks, but my son really likes his gut hook knife.

Dont' know whether you're looking for a fixed blade or a folder, but I find myself turning to a fixed blade more and more. Here are two of my favorite fixed blades for skinning a deer.
Cold Steel "Roach Belly." Really like the knife, but hate the name. Can be found all around the 'net for bout $15.
Kissing Crane "Classic Hunter." Cost 'bout $45.
As far as folders, it's hard to beat the classic "Buck Hunter."
