Thanks a lot for all the good in put fellas. My brother in law hunts deer for the most part. So I think I'll try to track down a Muk for him. I fear the tip of the Bird Dog may be a bit thin for cleaning and gutting a deer. But I know nothing as I'm not a gun guy....strictly fishing and I use a fillet knife for that. Once again I appreciate the help with this. Maybe I'll buy the Muk soon and the Bird Dog in a year. Just typin what I'm thinkin.
