Compact bone saw for deer

[Tnman@13]

What do you guys use on the pelvic bone ?

I don't cut the pelvic bone, but I use my porter cable cordless recip saw with a bimetal blade for cutting the legs.

Nothing but a knife. I carefully cut around the hip bone and get to the socket, You can pretty much do it all with a knife, but I have some small Fiskars clippers to remove the lower legs, it's just faster.

I keep a Milwaukee folding sawzall in my pack. Works for small limbs when climbing a tree too.

I have one similar to this but most of the time end up just cutting the butthole out and pulling it back through. Make sure your knife is sharp and don't bust the bladder.

Either cut around the socket, or use a hatchet to split

I use the old fashioned butchers saw. Some day I'm get a Sawzall and get it done quick and easy

This is me! I cut around hip sockets, and remove the hip joint whole. If Im butchering out at home I use my limb loppers to quickly nip lower legs. It's way faster and easier.

If Im in the woods doing a gutless method, I have a folding limb saw that will get used to remove lower legs.

Same device and I split the sternum too with it….. (reminds me of doing it on humans with a $10,000 stainless steel electric jig saw)! Ha!
