This is the one I use. I do have the cheap blue single side ones I use that for skins like mink and rats .All other furs I use the Necker 600 .Like Beav stated of get it down to a science. It take a few skins before before I need to sharpen it . When I first got the 600 ,it took some getting use to. but now I would not part from it.

ZEPH makes a good one too. Blade is a little thicker and stronger than the others. Good for the heavy pushing like on a big tough coyote.

I have a Necker, I like it! There is some comments on matching the knife to the beam, my PVC beam system and the Necker works well for me.

The Post Fleshing knife is all I use. Great lite weight wood handled knife with great steel to hold an edge.

I have 2 Neckers and bought a Post from Jim Bethell, I have fleshed a couple hundred coyotes and cats with it, If something happened to it today I would have a new one on the way today

I have had a sheffield for about 40 years, never have "sharpened" it, hit with a steel a couple of times a year you are good to go. I have scraped 1000s of coon and beaver with it, some of my own and custom work. I like the looks of Lees knife, about like the Sheffield, but if I bought one I don't know if I could get it dirty, It's to pretty.

I used to use a Knecker 600 until I bought one of Lee's parallels now the knecker just hangs out.. Something about the angle and the steel he uses takes a lot of the work out of the equation.
