Huntspoint - Boning is rated out of 5 by 2.Rated 5 out of 5 by Wilderness from Solid Backcountry Hunting Knife This is the best hunting knife I own. I own a variety of knives of many types and prices and this is the one I choose to take with me when I hunt. When I took my buck this year it was also the only knife I had to choose from -- all my other knives and tools were far away in another vehicle. It wasn't a problem, I was able to gut, skin and debone the entire animal with just the huntspoint. It needed resharpening a couple times during the process but that is to be expected for such a task. The leather sheath performed well enough, but I would love to see this knife offered with a kydex sheath that attaches to a Molle system. Thanks SOG!Date published: 2015-01-19Rated 5 out of 5 by Malcolm from Well designed Knife I've only owned the huntspoint boning knife in aus-8 steel for 3 days but am very happy with it. The knife arrived sharp and after testing it cutting some hard leather it was still sharp. I gave the edge a light strop and then compared it with some of the knives I've made using N690 AND d2 WHICH i CONSIDER GREAT STEELS. I think the heat treatment and blade design must be top notch because the sog held it own with these other great steels on a variety of materials. The knife felt very light in the hand and balanced a little further back up the handle than I usually like. apparently THE BLADE WAS MADE IN TAIWAN AND THE SHEATH MADE IN THE USA. CONS: THE RETAINING STRAP HAD A LACK OF DYE ON THE INSIDE AND THE DOME WAS DIFFICULT TO ENGAGE UNTIL THE LEATHER MOLDED IN.(JUST BEING PICKY) pros: Great Ergonomics, BLADE DESIGN AND steel for an all round medium/big game knife.

SOG Unconditional Pocket Clip Warranty
Pocket clips can be broken if they are accidentally caught on foreign objects while wearing. To help prevent such occurrences, SOG recommends that you wear your knife in your front pocket, with the knife inside your pocket. If, for whatever reason, your clip bends or breaks and you would like to receive a replacement, fill out the Clip Request Form, or email/call SOG's warranty department. Damage to a knife handle because a clip has snagged is not considered "normal," and any such damage will be assessed under warranty. Learn more about replacing pocket clips in Knife & Tool Care.
