World Knives

Hunting knives were the very first knives. Like most things knives developed out of necessity and our need for food has always been high on the list of things necessary for our survival.

There have been countless versions of the straight edge hunting knife over the years and contemporary knife makers are still honing the design.

Hunting Knives

At World Knives we have a variety of contemporary hunting knives that represent diverse designs and a variety of materials from around the world.

There are some types of knives that are made specifically for hunting practices. The use of a "skinning knife" is obvious. They generally have a short, tough, razor sharp blade that is designed to easily separate hide from flesh.

Skinning knives will sometime have a dull, barbed hook on the tip of the knife for eviscerating game. This is often referred to as a "gut hook".

There is no perfect "hunting knife". The 'right' knife will be determined by the specific use, kind of game, and hunters preference of materials and style.

At World Knives we carry a variety of hunting knives from around the world. We have hunting knives from several prominent makers. We offer hunting knives from EKA of Sweden, Joker of Spain, Linder of Germany, Aquila of Indonesia and many more.

Linder of Germany's hunting knives are outstanding in quality and design. Linder has been making knives since 1870. They manufacture their knives in Solingen, Germany, the undisputed home of fine European knives. Check out Linder's Special Cocobolo Hunting Knife. It is a skinning knife of supreme quality.
