az4life Report post Posted February 2, 2010 Love those sharp edges. I started using a Z Blade Disposable Caping knife which is a smaller blade in a disposable knife for about 6-8 bucks. Lightweight and It comes in bright colors so you can't lose it very easily. Dressed, and Skinned 2 antelope and mine is still pretty darn sharp. No replacement blades so just toss it when it dulls. Love those sharp edges! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CouesWhitetail Report post Posted May 12, 2010 Skinned a wolf and a bear in Alaska, works great! Love the interchangeable blades. KRS Were you able to do them with one blade or did you change them out while doing the bear? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
COOSEFAN Report post Posted May 12, 2010 These are the best knives I've ever owned! I still carry around my skinnin' bag filled with Alaska knives, John Toner knives and an assortment of others, but I only use the Havalon. I've done several entire bull elk with one blade, and only because I didn't have an extra blade with me. I like to change out the blades often because when they get dull you start having to apply too much force to the knife, and that's when bad things happen! One thing, and this is the only drawback, the blades are weak if you aren't running it straight, and you twist the blade and apply much pressure it will snap and sometimes go flying! This is no problem if you are paying attention and not trying to show off! (which i've been guilty of ) The back of the neck on a ruttin' bull is the worst and best place to use the Havalon, it works great but you have to be very careful not to twist the blade. Coues deer are like butter to a Havalon, they make it amazingly easy, especially when caping the head! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
