The knife is the timeless tool in service to nearly the same extent today as it was in the primitive ages. In modern times, some purchase them for practical uses such as camping or other outdoor activities, and some collect them as a hobby. And an ever-expanding hobby it is: in both the United States and other countries spanning the globe. Not only is it fun and a challenge, it remains a great investment. Antique knives have a competitive market that notches up in intensity consistently.

Charles May Knives are a popular, high-quality brand of collectible hunting knives. Not every hunting knife is even remotely the same, though, and it's important to do your homework before purchasing. An essential prerequisite to purchasing your hunting knife is the interrogation of your dealer with relevant and delving questions. Keep in mind what you intend to be using it for, what situations you foresee it being utilized in, what you will be hunting, where you will be hunting, and so on and so forth.
Know what kind of animal you intend to be hunting and shop accordingly. If you're aiming more towards large and thick skinned animals, a drop point hunting knife will most likely be your best bet, sporting a fat steel blade. A drop point hunting knife will use its edge more than its point, and is ideal for a great skinning job while sparing the meat quite nicely.
Along these lines, and quite similar, is the skinning knife. The skinning knife generally is used as its nomenclature suggests, and is reliably efficient for the job.

For a multi-purpose knife, the clip-point knife is ideal, primarily because of its slightly flatter blade. For the diverse outdoorsman or woman, this is a good buy because it is not limited to hunting. When considering this knife, one should be sure to research the various available blade materials, their strengths and weaknesses, and the extent of care required. These materials include titanium nitrate, stainless steel, and carbon steel.
Pay close attention to the length and breadth of your prospective knives. Purchasing in person is particularly preferable, to ensure that the grip is pleasing, and easy to handle. The material of the handle is crucial on this count. Another important consideration is that of fixed blade vs. folding knife. Fixed blades are generally more durable for the die-hard hunter, while the weekend warrior will be better off with a large folding knife.
For an absolute beginner with little experience on the knife market, an all-purpose knife is a good starting point, from which to gain a feel for the market and do some more research.
Specifically, Charles May Knife blades are heat treated in Charlie's shop, and are checked for consistency on his Wilson Rockwell hardness tester to ensure the consumer receives a properly treated blade. Handle materials are available in a plethora of styles, with or without liners of various colors, with hand-rubbed or bead-blasted finishes, by request of the consumer.
