New Argali MagnaCut Knives

[Billdoe]

I have a Serac in S35VN. I have large hands and have no issue with grip on it. The smaller handle allows you to he more precise with it as well.

I have an issue with my pinky locking up occasionally and a wider grip prevents that.

I have a Carbon and also have large hands, it is my "best fitting" hunting knife by far, ergonomically.

I was super skeptical of the handle when I first ordered, but it works like a champ in the field.

I hear you. It's not that we don't want to, we just get a lot of requests for custom colors and it takes time. If you're looking for a high viz option, the grey/orange handle does have a lot of visibility.

I totally understand that, but if you use the same scales and reverse the machining and put the orange outside it should be an easy swap. unless the liner isn't g10. just food for thought orange or the red would make it much harder to loose.

Any chance of a restock before BF sale on the Magnacut knives

unfortunately not. Looking at early '26 for those.

Okay, knife greenhorn here. I've done all my deer and elk butchering with a Buck Zipper knife or one of seveal Outdoor Edge solo knives or butchering kits picked up by whoever from wherever (mostly gifts, tbh). They work, though one needs to sharpen relatively frequently. I would like to get a nicer knife to use for gutting, skinning, and deboning medium and large game.

Let's set aside knife steel for a minute. I know that's a topic all it's own, but I'm not interested at the moment (I will likely just pick magnacut and be done with it).

My question: what are the different shapes of the blades doing and for? Specially comparing Argali's Carbon to the Serac to the Sawtooth. All of them say they are "do it all" kinives. Why should I choose one shape over the other? I think I appreciate the belly on the Serac is more of skinning knife style (and the description says that), but that's about all I think I know. Feel free to point me to another forum post or website for further reading if that's easier.

Appreciate the help.

More belly (Serac)= more better slicing

More drop at the tip (Serac) = more better at cutting things open and not cutting what is underneath

More straight and thin (Sawtooth) = more better at precision such as caping or boning

Personally, I like a knife with belly and a tip that drops and would pick that if I could only have one. I also prefer shorter blades.

From Argali's line up, the Serac would be my choice. The Carbon has less belly than I like, but still a pretty workable blade shape. The Sawtooth is too pointy to be the only knife I have for processing an animal. I view the Carbon as a hybrid between the Serac and Sawtooth.

I have no personal experience with an Argai blade.

We get this question a lot, and my honest answer to your question is it really just depends on your personal preference and what you like in a knife. Some people prefer a thinner blade, some prefer more of a skinning style blade (Serac), and the Sawtooth is really a different knife than either the Carbon or the Serac in terms of blade shape, handle and design. The carbon is great for deer sized game and for me personally, I use it a lot on deer sized game. It's my go-to a lot. We have a lot of customers that prefer the Serac for deer sized game though and think it is a better choice. And the Sawtooth is just a great all around knife. I'm taking it with me on an Elk hunt I leave on tomorrow, and I also use it to butcher at home. It's a great skinning knife. That's all a long way of saying, they all work well, and it just depends on what you like in a knife and how you butcher.
