Knife Suggestions

[BigDuckHunter]

My BIL just returned from deployment and I want to get him a hunting knife for Christmas. He’s just started getting into hunting the last couple years and doesn’t have a nice one yet. It’ll be something of a do-all hunting knife for him to begin with. We have plans for a bear hunt this spring (assuming he doesn’t get deployed again in that time) but he will also do some bird hunting with me in the fall.

I want something that’ll be a nice tool for him and last a long time. I wish I would’ve thought about it sooner so I maybe could have looked into a custom knife. He wasn’t supposed to be home this soon so I hadn’t put much thought into it.

Anyway, looking to keep it under $150. What suggestions do you all have?

A Bark River Gunny may be a meaningful piece for him. The gunny is a very very good general purpose drop point and excellent hunting, bushcrafty and survival type knife. Although not a Randall, a common gift for service persons.

Folder or fixed? Buck 110 is classic. Spyderco Stretch 2XL is a great modern folder or the Military as a multi-purpose.
