Field dressing game during a hunt was seamless with this tool. The gut hook slices through hide cleanly, and the grip feels natural even after hours of use. It holds its edge well but benefits from a quick sharpen after heavy skinning. The sheath keeps it secure on a belt. Shipping took four days. The bone handle looks great but needs occasional oiling to maintain its finish.
