I have always processed my deer with a combination of an old Sharpfinger, a cheap fillet knife and occasionally the Rada knives we have in the kitchen. My wife decided she was going to surprise me this year with a good knife set for Father's day. Luckily, after a little research she realized that it would be better to let me pick the knives she is going to get me. I am debating between upgrading the Rada knives with a good cooking knife set, or getting a couple of quality knives for processing deer. Maybe I can upgrade both with handful of knives?
I have read through a few older threads on here and other sites and it appears that Victorinox, is very popular. I also have read good things about Dexter Russel and the Dalstrong knives but the Dalstrong are more expensive and I am not sure if they are worth the additional cost.
What do you guys use? What knife styles/sizes do you recommend for processing? What knife sizes/styles do you recommend for cooking/food prep?
Edit: I'm also looking for suggestions on a quality bone saw.
