Steel Blade

Best Steel For Hunting Knives
A high quality steel-hunting knife will be made of either a carbon steel or stainless steel. There are advantages and disadvantages to both. With carbon you get the rust and only through regular use or waxing can you prevent it from happening. If you are not a prolific hunter, the carbon blade will not get much use, meaning it will rust and need to be replaced more often. The carbon steel blade has to its advantage: primarily the fact that it holds its sharp longer and is easier to hone.
Stainless Steel on the other hand is highly rust resistant and requires no extra maintenance. That is one of the reasons hunters who hunt in extremely humid or rainy areas prefer them. They are more expensive to purchase than carbon blades and also a lot more difficult to get sharp, but once sharpened they hold the edge a very long time.
Most hunters prefer carbon but there is one really good stainless steel knife that can handle any situation it is the ATS-34. When hunting you have to plan for any contingency. You need to be able to use the knife at your side for more than gutting fish and dressing game.
You may be required to spend the night in the woods unexpectedly or worse. What if you get lost, this happens to hunters more than they are willing to admit. The knife you take with you can mean the difference between surviving alone or surviving in comfort. You will want to take a blade that can be used to build a shelter if necessary.
A good hunting knife blade will be called upon to handle the stress of being used as a pry bar, a hack saw and a means of preparing food. A stainless steel blade can withstand all of the stress and continue to be sharp for a long time.
A good stainless steel Bowie is an excellent choice for hunting. If you must get lost in the woods this knife will help you to survive in style. The blade is long enough to be used in the manner needed to hack away at the branches, dress game, open cans or pry away rocks.
When it comes right down to it, choosing a hunting knife is a matter of preference. For survival in the woods you have to consider all of the possible things that could go wrong and what type of knife can help you through a bad situation. A Blade is not just a blade, and it is certainly of no help to you if it breaks when you need it most. With a stainless steel blade this is not ever likely to happen.
