Custom gut hook knife?

[TimberHunter]

Was considering MKC but read some less than ideal things on here. Currently use outdoor edge with replaceable blades that also has a foldable convex “belly” blade that is great for zipping under the hide when skinning. 99% of the time I go gutless but a gut hook could be very useful for me when skinning

Anyone on here made such a knife?

Have you looked at the Dixie Zipper RS helped me me design?

The geometry of the blade makes it zip under the hide better than a gut hook.

I just use the Gerber E-Z zip I think it's called. Uses replaceable blades used in carpet knives. I've been using this forever, works fantastic.

I wouldnt use an actual gut hook.

Dixie zipper is sweet.

Bought a number of MKC but only one in my regular rotation is their little bird knife.

I have found none better than the Outdoor Edge Zip Pro. I use it on every animal, regardless if gutting or the gutless method. I've spoke to a few builders about creating a custom, but haven't had much luck. Everybody who's ever been around me processing an animal now owns one.

That’s the convex belly blade I was referring to, very useful!

I can't figure out how to copy and paste the file correctly, but if you search Outdoor Edge Zip Pro you can find the model I'm referring to. The Zip Pro is the folding model that has OE's best steel for that style of blade.

I have a Dixie zipper knife and I dont think its as slick as a gut hook for that specific task.

I think gut hooks get alot of hate because its like training wheels, but man they do make opening up a body cavity easy.
