I started with a Kabar off of Amazon, the model with the olive green rubberized handle. I put an edge on the first 3” of the top of the knife to make it double edged and it has been a great knife, It’s killed a lot of pigs and never been sharpened since that first time.
Now I use a Schrade SCHF21 which I will post a picture of. It’s a needle point and double edged. It’s a great knife as well and a lot more compact, I think the blade is 5.5” or around there. My Only complaint is the sheath. It sits a little too high for me, I would prefer one that I could mount on my belt on the back and have the knife held in a horizontal position. But it’s rare for me to kill a pig these days. I almost always let my hunting partner or a guest kill the pig. I like to stand back and video the dogs working.
I was in Afghanistan with a guy that makes customs knives and sheaths, some of them look pretty sweet. One day I may get him to make me something custom. A double edge is a must for me, and I like a handle that keeps a good grip in any conditions since I hunt around a lot of swamp and water. It’s pretty common for us to catch pigs in nasty mud.
