Elkbow from the Mathews forum hooked me up with these knives last year when I was looking for a folding knife to pack in. He packs in a few and can do a whole ELk with 3-4 of them. Well I finally used one last week when processing my buddies deer. I have never skinned out a deer faster. There is something about the combination of flexibility and sharpness/thinness of the knife that just lets you fly through it. So I bought a dozen, this way it comes to $4 a piece with shipping. I'll tell you I pulled those backstraps off effortlessly.
