Over many years I have found a 3" to 4" blade ideal for all types of hunting and fishing.

When I was much younger, I thought 6" to 8" Bowie style knives were cool. but I learned from experience that they are unweildy and hard to use. No one I know has ever been in a knife-fight, so those long blade relics have very little use.

It is really hard to beat a Leatherman (or a clone) for all around utility and convenience. Then, it you need a pliers, bottle opener, screwdriver, etc. - it is all right there on your belt.
