Leatherman Selway Hunting Knife - Gut Hook, Lockback

A nice quality knife that comes very sharp on both the blade and gut hook. It's comfortable in the hand but it is also very large and a bit bulky. I bought the knife for hunting because it comes with the retractable gut hook, which is a nice feature, but was hoping for something a bit smaller and more pocket manageable. I never thought I would see the day that the Buck 110 look small next to another folding knife but it is dwarfed by this knife. I can't help but feel that they made this knife bigger than it needed to be and that they could have made the handle smaller than it currently is, especially given the blade length. This knife is just too big for pocket carry but does come with a sheath for belt carry. I guess I just feel that a folding knife should be able to be carried in your pocket because if I have to belt carry the knife I might as well get a fixed blade. If you can get over the size then it's a fine knife, otherwise find something smaller.

Buy this knife! you won't be sorry. I cleaned, skinned, and boned four deer without having to sharpen the blade. Lifetime hunter, and this is absolutely THE best knife I've owned.

I had been looking for a good knife to use while deer hunting. This knife fulfilled all my expectations. It appears to be well made, has a good, strong, sharp blade and the gut hook will make field dressing much easier. After purchasing the initial knife, and evaluating it, I purchased 3 more as gifts for son and son in laws.

5.5 inch handle. 3.5 inch blade. Large handle. Good grip. Fits nicely in your hand. Made from some rubberized material. Should be OK when bloody. Feels sturdy. Guthook does not lock. Should be OK. Blade has 1 1/16 inch spine. Sturdy. Nice sheath. Have not used yet but will keep for hunting. Could be used for just good all around knife.
