I've been using a Tyto for years. I love them.
But looking at being one of the cool kids and getting a MTK.
I really have learned to like the tiny 3" Tyto blades. So I'm thinking the Mini Speedgoat.
Any others that work great for boning out? I see they've got a lot of skinning blades. Just afraid they're not nimble enough for meat work.

Other one I'd be interested in is a bush knife. I've got a Bradford 4.5 and it's a work horse. A beast of a blade. But it's a little heavy. I see MTK has a few bush blades. I really love having a blade I can abuse and use for prepping fire word and cutting cigars. Just a good work horse.
 
I picked up a speedgoat last year, but haven't really used it yet. Looks like a really nice knife. It'll replace my Havalon this season. Alas It'll be just deer here in OK as I didn't draw anything out west.
 
Mini speedgoat is a great utility knife if you find the guy making scales for them. Personally I’ll never regularly use a paracord handle knife just because the paracord gets covered in crap and ends up nasty.

I have been able to handle most of their blades. The best field hunting knife is the west slope. Good point, good sweep, not too long that I can’t reach the tip. Not a huge fan of most of their other hunting designs.

I like their Westslope for meat work; I prefer the tip of it over their Goat series.

Yeah cord gets gross.
 
Gonna try the stone goat ultra this year. I think its a bit more of a functional shape than the speedgoat.

I really enjoy my mini speed goat for detail work. But with the paracord handle I decided it’s not the knife I’m carrying in the field. Same goes for my full size speed goat. They will rewrap the handle for free but I ended up just not liking it when cleaning game. One deer on my speed goat was enough.

The sharp tail and freeze out may be worth visiting. Both are small pointy blades like the mini but they have scales. I’m just not sure about the handle angles.

Or you can save a few bucks and explore the Argalli knives. You get scales for the same price as a paracord MKC knife. The sheaths are equally Ok.
 
I like the Speedgoat, Stonewall Skinner and the Elkhorn Skinner. Only thing is I hate G10 so I get all of mine with new wood on them.
