About 20 years ago I bought a Craftsman work knife for $17.  Not the best knife, but a good knife.  My son borrowed it and naturally broke the blade.  I took it to Sears and they gave me one of their new $39. knives with no questions asked.  I probably cleaned 30 deer and many fish with that knife.  I cut roofing and any thing else needed with that cheap knife.  Just something to think about.
