I have gutted deer with this. I have had NZDA members process Red deer with it. The blade is small, but it is functional. I wouldn't want it to be the only knife I had on a hunt, but I make sure I have one with me on every hunt.
I am not so keen on paracord wrap on a High Carbon steel knife, it is likely to stay wet and form rust. I do dip the handle part in rust kill primer before wrapping in paracord though. But to be safer, I mainly do this knife in AEBL.
