Who is Ron Spomer
For 44 years I’ve had the good fortune to photograph and write about my passion - the outdoor life. Wild creatures and wild places have always stirred me - from the first flushing pheasant that frightened me out of my socks in grandpa’s cornfield to the last whitetail that dismissed me with a wag of its tail. In my attempts to connect with this natural wonder, to become an integral part of our ecosystem and capture a bit of its mystery, I’ve photographed, hiked, hunted, birded, and fished across much of this planet. I've seen the beauty that everyone should see, survived adventures that everyone should experience. I may not have climbed the highest mountains, canoed the wildest rivers, caught the largest fish or shot the biggest bucks, but I’ve tried. Perhaps you have, too. And that’s the essential thing. Being out there, an active participant in our outdoor world.

I usually carry an Old Timer 150T that my Dad used for years. He gave it to me when I got my first deer at 13 along with a Model 99 in .300 Savage that I carried that day, and it's comforting to have a little piece of him with me in the woods 28 years later, even though he's gone now.
Lost a knife my grandfather gave me while hunting in utah . Leather sheath was very dry rotted & fell off my belt while elk hunting in a blizzard . Broke my heart when it got back to camp & realised that it was gone. To this day , can’t bring myself to tell my dad that I lost grandpas knife.
The first knife you picked up was my first hunting knife too. My dad got it from an old fisherman. He dropped it in a deep creek and left the sheath for him. "If you can dive and get it, it's yours". I handed it down to my son now.
The Morakniv Kansbol is the best bush/hunting/survival knife for the money in my opinion. Check it out and maybe some of your listeners haven’t used or seen one. Like 45$ still. Some like the Morakniv Garberg, I believe it’s spelled because it’s full tang. However the reason I like the former is because it sooooo light. And love the grind. Also this knife grew on me. Wasn’t immediate love.
🤠 A Smaller Blade Insures More Control Of The Knife And That You Won't Puncture/Cut Anything That You Don't Want Too - Like The Intestines, Pee Sack, Or Cape! 🤔
Buck 105 Pathfinder. I've had one for almost 25 years and it's been my big game knofe forever. Glad to see you have one as well- your brother had great taste!
As a full-time custom knife maker it’s great to see this type of content from you!
If you like the flexibility of a fillet knife but want a little more stoutness...use a Victorinox boning knife... very excellent knife for the after field meat cutting jobs...only about 25-30 dollars...
Dog says: My employee REALLY knows his knives! Ok, it’s time for my feeding dad! Let’s go.
My dad broke his bayonet in WW2. He wrote home saying that he broke the tip off by a " Practice throw" into a tree after hand to hand fighting in the Hedge row country. He asked to have him send a hunting knife with a 6 to 8 inch blade. His parents couldn't but actually thought he was hunting where he was 😳
That dog was so cool I was focused on him most of the time when I fist watched your video. Because of him I had to watch it a second time. Very nice and informative video. It was nice to see a true outdoorsman talk about knives for a change and not some urban EDCer talking about how his Benchmade Bugout is the coolest knife to open amazon boxes or envelopes. 👍
I prefer the old tried and true Buck knives for all of my needs. Another great episode. Thanks!
I saw the Knives but i could not take my old eyes off Covey
Been using a buck 110 folder for 30 years..still holds a great edge many critters dressed with it..
I agree , on the throw away knife. I just like the sharping of a knife. And heritage of passing them down .
My Dad started me off at 6yrs old with a basic Jack knife, a block of wood and an old worn out wet stone. By the time I learned how to carve a wooden knife and a chain from those blocks of wood I was pretty good at sharpening a knife. Sure wish I had that old Jack knife today. I took it to school one day for show and tell,, never got that one back... Too bad.. I came up just after the time when kids would hunt on their way to and from school, stuff their 22's in their locker and all was right in the World.. Wish we had those days back too.. Thanks for the great videos.
Paws up for Cuvvy what a well behaved dog, I must confess I was a bit nervous with knifes in the table. Love ur channel fisherman here. Last time I hunted was as a kid with a bow and arrow and we jacked Guinea fowls that grandpapi let us harvest, he choose the wood for my bow, those were the times.
My personal favorite hunting knife is the helle eggen I've had for about a decade now. Used it to dress game from quail to whitetail, and plan on using it for many more. The skandi grind is easy to get a good fine edge on, and the laminated steel holds that edge very well. I can fairly easily break down a deer with it, plus a boning knife for the more precise work. Given I haven't really taken a lot of deer, I feel that's a fair testament to its qualities.
I’ve carried. Swiss Army knife since I was in the military. It’s great, not very expensive, multiple uses. If lost a replacement won’t hurt your budget to much.
I have carried the same little hunting / fishing knife for 48 years now. My father served in the merchant marine from 1942-1950 and he picked it up on his first trip to Europe during ww2 and used t as his sailor / hunting knife until the late 1980’s when he finally passed full ownership on to me.
