When hunting, camping, or fishing, a knife is a handy tool that can easily become life-saving. Two years ago, I killed a big deer unexpectedly and did not have a knife to field dress the animal. As it was situated well back in the mountains, I was able to get a pick-up to the 200-pound carcass, yet could not get it in the bed of the truck. After working to exhaustion, I ended up pulling the buck down the mountain behind the truck, ruining the cape.

Knifes are only helpful as a tool if you have one with you and it doesn’t get lost. A camouflaged knife is any marketer’s dream, because customers keep buying new ones after they become lost. Personally, I love the orange handles of the new Steel Will Gekko knives. Not only are the knives easier to locate when dropped in the leaves or after field dressing a deer, but they are ultra-visible as a reminder to take them along, even on unexpected hunting trips. Here’s a quick summary.

The Gekko 1513 & 1533 both include a high-quality leather sheath that securely fastens the knife while in travel and allows quick and easy access when needed. The leather material is also comfortable to wear, dries quickly when exposed to the elements and is easy to maintain. Steel Will Knives realized ounces equal pounds and pounds equal pain, and developed the Gekko 1513 (6.8 oz.) and Gekko 1533 (7.37 oz.) to be as lightweight as possible without effecting their structural integrity.
