Anyone use this combo knife where one side is a piranta blade and the other is a baracuta blade?

Upon realizing my pocket knife sucked for field dressing a deer I thought I'd get a better tool for the job. Haven't found any reviews of this other than "it's bigger than I expected" (that's what she said).

Anyone have experience using it on deer - the piranta style blade for dressing/gutting, and the baracuta side for bone-sawing?

I haven't used mine yet this year, but I did one doe last year. Works great..just make sure you don't accidently touch yourself...otherwise you will have to make a field expedient pressure dressing. Take my word for it...

I've used my piranta a bunch for field dressing deer. Both traditional for dragging and gutless method for packing one out that was way in deep. It is awesome, just be careful it is stupid sharp.
