I am buying a new fleshing knife for beaver and otter. Any recommendations?

Lee Steinmeyer, he's on here. Get the best and don't look back. Yes x 100 the best period

Lee makes a great knife.  Personally, I use a Caribou knife.  It's light and easy on my body.  Put up hundreds of beaver and thousands of coon with it.  It's what I found best for me after trying most everything else.

It's what I found best for me after trying most everything else. I too use a Caribou.  I have never used Lee's knives but they look really nice.  I wouldn't mind getting one one of these days but I'm just quite comfortable with my Caribou so never got around to it.

Got one of Lee's knives a few years ago at Coyote Days.  Loved it so much, when the opportunity presented itself, I picked up a second one.

Way back before I started bladesmithing I used a Necker 700 and I liked the caribou as well.. These days I make my own..
