The Light Hunter Combo by Knives of Alaska is a two-knife set designed for efficient field-dressing of medium-sized game animals. It is designed for hunters who are weight conscious but need the benefits of having a mini-cleaver that can chop through bone when field dressing. Here’s a breakdown of the components:
Light Hunter Mini Skinner/Cleaver:
Skinner and Cleaver Combination: Provides versatility for different field-dressing tasks. The sweeping curve of the edge makes skinning an easy and efficient process. The thickness of the blade provides the heft of a cleaver and is useful for chopping through bone or cartilage during processing. The large gut hook won’t clog up with hair when skinning.
D2 Tool Steel: Renowned for its durability and edge retention, important for handling various cutting tasks.
Cub Bear Caping Knife:
D2 Tool Steel: Matches the Light Hunter for consistency in performance and durability.
Small and Precise: Ideal for detailed cuts required during field dressing. Finger grooves provide total control.
Combo and Sheath:
Combination Leather Sheath: This high-quality sheath offers secure and convenient storage for both knives.
Suregrip Handles:Checkered Suregrip handles provide a comfortable and secure grip even in wet, slippery conditions.
Overall, the Light Hunter Combo is a popular choice for hunters who target medium-sized game and value a lightweight and functional two-knife set for field dressing. The combination of the Light Hunter’s versatility for skinning and cleaving, along with the Cub Bear’s expertise in caping, provides the necessary tools for complete processing tasks.
