FOR BOAR HUNTING I USE COLD STEEL MAGNUM TANTOS RECON TANTO TRAIL MASTER OR APPLEGATE SMATCHET ALTOUGH BOKER IS MARVELOUS FOR THE TASK .ALWAYS USE A BIG KNIFE WITH STRONG POINT.I DONT LIKE OLD STYLE BOWIES OR FACONS FOR THIS USE.JUAN

I'll never hunt pig with a knife but I'm curious.The knives you mention have blades 10 -12" long.Wouldn't a longer knife be better to reach the vital organs ? Exactly where is the best place to thrust the knife ? Would a double edged one be better ? The old leaf sword design with a blade about 22" comes to mind.

NO THE KNIVE CANT BE A SWORD BECAUSE ITS TOO DANGEROUS FOR THE DOGS SO NO MORE THAN 15'' DOUBLE EDGED NOT BOWIES I PREFER A STRONG DROP POINT.JUAN THE LOCALIZATION OF THE ZONE IS BEHIND FROTN LEG AS IN NORMAL HUNTING SHOOTS

By 'behind front leg' you mean into the heart as the photo shows.Now it's clear but still not for me !
