If you need a sheath knife for everything, look at the CS SRK (Survival Rescue Knife). I've done deer, rabbits, everything with it, plus chop down trees and open canned goods. Indestructable.
I dont know how I've been passing this up, but for some reason, I couldnt get the lik to open?

This knife cut rope, cardboard, carpet, and one finger better than any knife I ever owned (although my Buck Special, after being sharpened on a lansky did seem to enter my leg rather effortlessly and with no intent on stopping).
The Cold Steel Pro Lite comes serrated and non. The serrated is just a wonderful knife, heck, it can pass as a small spade. I've had it for 7 years, used the heck out of it, and it doesn't need sharpening. It's still scary.
anyway, thats my opinion.
That's some fine knives you have there jstgsn!
I'm not real set on the serrated baldes but do have a few. A here while
back I bought one of the Gerber BG Ultimate Survival's with the serrated
1/2 blade and like it.

Went out shroom hunti'n today with a few friends and walked about an
hour to get to where they were up and had the Gerber on me. Had it out
a time 'er two back there and noticed it was gone out of the sheath about
3/4th's of the way back.
Needless to say, I went back with no luck as a few I was with was running
out of time and had to go. I got back to the house as it was weighing heavy
on my mind, and walked back there myself and found that knife!
Even had one guy tell me, "your walking all the way back there for that knife?"
"I'll buy ya another one to save the walk and the heat!"

I just looked and said, I'll be back! (wasnt gonna make that knife another
lost one on the list!)
