Havalon Piranta Quality
While we were very impressed with the quality of the Havalon Piranta, it is not a structurally strong knife.
It is very light and much too flimsy to take on heavy tasks, but for field dressing and skinning it can't be beat.
The handle is blaze orange, which we love for field dressing, because the knife is easy to find when set down on the forest floor.
The blades are crazy sharp and more like a scalpel than a knife blade.
It is perfect for making short work of any skinning job.
The Piranta comes complete with a nylon sheath which contains a pocket for storing the replacement blades for ultimate convenience.
