THE KNIFE for HUNTING WITH DOGOS ARGENTINOS The knife is the perfect weapon for hunting with dogos argentinos and knife. It must finish in quickly with the wild boar, avoiding unnecessary sufferings, but also must be usefull to skin the animal and the later function of quarter. After
using some different type of knives, I realized that I might have one
" to my measurement ". On a transition between a North American Bowie and the Hispanic Falcata, I made several tries until I found the one that satisfied me and on the basis of that group, I asked a man to make me one of a single piece, a leaf of 30 cm with a thickness of 5mm, double edge in the end for good penetration, end curved to skin, generous bronze, balanced weight, and with a hole where it could pass a tape in case I wanted to have it subject to the wrist or for some other utility.
