Hunting is probably one of the oldest crafts in the world. Even our predecessors thousands of years ago practiced hunting to feed themselves, and history shows impressively that the better developed the hunting tools used on it, the more successful the hunt was.
In the beginning, stones, both unhewn and hewn, served man as primitive hunting tools. As we all know, an enormous historical development took place in terms of the hunting weapons used, so that nowadays we can practice hunting with the most modern firearms and other things.
Regarding a tool that is indispensable for man in hunting, there are particularly interesting observations to be made. Although the production method and material properties of knives have been improved over time, their function has remained virtually unchanged. This may be due to the fact that our ancestors, who still used stone knives, already realized that this tool is probably one of the most important achievements in the history of mankind and the physical laws of our earth probably do not allow a better tool to perform the activities for which we use knives.
Knives, or cold weapons, are still an essential of hunting today. Without hunting knives, deer hunters, boar spears, pry knives, bush knives, boning knives, butcher knives, etc., the process of hunting and the subsequent extraction of meat from the kill could never be guaranteed as we know it today.
Therefore, it is worthwhile to pay more attention to this small and, compared to firearms, inexpensive hunting tool.
