Beyond its superior functionality, the Swedish Field Dresser is built with hygiene and durability in mind. The knife and sheath are constructed from materials that resist weather, moisture, and other fluids, ensuring easy clean-up after every use.
Developed with direct input from experienced hunters and game butchers, this knife addresses the real-world needs of those who rely on their tools in challenging environments.
KEY FEATURES
Superior Steel Made from Alleima (formerly Sandvik) 14C28N, a recycled Swedish stainless steel. The optimized chemistry provides a top-grade knife steel with a unique combination of excellent edge performance, high hardness, and good corrosion resistance. Casström blades are all cryo-quenched as standard too, which enhances wear resistance and fulfils the true potential of the steel.
Reversed Blade Design Edge and spine are inverted compared to a standard knife, which allows for better control when unzipping an animal, using a steady, forward pushing action.
Rounded Tip This prevents puncture damage to organs during gralloching, and reduces the risk of injuries.
Easier Sharpening The straight-line blade is easier to sharpen than conventional curved gut-openers, maintaining its edge with minimal effort.
Jimping, Deep Thumb Grip, and Finger Groove The knife has been designed with safety in mind, and there are a number of features allowing for a safer grip for better results.
Full-Tang Construction Provides robust durability, ensuring the knife can withstand demanding tasks in the field.
Weather and Fluid Resistant Handle Available in orange G10, black micarta, or stabilised curly birch, the handle is designed for a secure grip and long-lasting performance in harsh conditions.
Versatile Usage Beyond field dressing, the blade is also suitable for carving wood and preparing food on the fly, making it a versatile tool for outdoor activities.
Tough Kydex Sheath Comes with a durable kydex sheath for secure storage and protection, with optional leather hangers available for added convenience.
Not used on deer yet but fab design and build quality. Time will tell but I'm sure the twins will be great.

Field Dresser
I have dozens of knives, some very expensive (£400+) and some very cheap(£12+) and they're all good at what they were designed for but I have to admit that the Field Dresser is my favourite. It is small, lightweight, easy to use and even easier to sharpen. It takes a bit of getting used to, being basically an upside down cutting edge but what a great idea! I used it for the first time last weekend on 3 Roe deer that I'd shot and it was flawless..without being too graphic, it processed all 3 deer perfectly up until a more dedicated butchering knife was needed.. 10/10 from me.

Useful accessory
I already have one of these danglers for my RM bushcraft knife, but I wanted to modify the leather sheath for my Fallkniven A1 Pro to make it quick release. I removed the old belt attachment and rivet, fitted the dangler attachment and replaced the sheath rivet with a Chicago screw. It makes the whole thing much more user friendly, I don’t know why Fallkniven don’t fit these as standard.
No.3 Dangler

Good for skin conditions and cuts/grazes
I thought I would try this for a natural salva for my hands and skin, I get cut hands through work and sore patches, spots on my forearms which just don’t heal for months. Look unsightly and itch, I tried this and covered the area with salve, within a few days the skin red patches and soreness started to lessen and now after a couple of weeks they are nearly gone, my skin/arm doesn’t itch all the time and the skin is going back to normal. Before it would take months and have a patch of raised red skin scars tissue.
I also used it in a bad cut with a bahco Laplander saw, on my finger, I was distracted for a moment. Anyway, the salva filled the cut gap and stopped any infection and pain, that was 2 weeks ago, it is a lot better, healthier and cleaner now. It’s made a world of difference to my skin and cuts/grazes.

A solid, versatile and beautifully made Knife
Bought to replace my old workhorse. Very impressed so far, a brilliantly versatile and Hardy knife, holds an edge well and can handle heavy duty tasks like battening but equally suited to fine work. Together with the ferro rod, they've made easy work of firelighting

Fantastic knife
I have had my knife about 18 months now and last year I used the knife on a Ray Mears Bushcraft course for a week. I used the knife all day everyday, it was a joy to use, it did everything comfortably it was required to do. It was much admired on the course.
I do a lot of spoon/bowl making, bushcraft skills and fire lighting with my blade. It does everything I need, up to needing to get an axe out.
It feels a big knife at first, I started with a smaller different company Swedish knife brand, when I moved up to this knife it was a bit intimidating. But after respecting the knife and learning it, it actually feels perfect size in my hand for bushcraft use. Solid dependable, comfortable and easy to use. It really is a beautiful knife and a joy to use.
The sheath is well made, I got the one without the fire starter, it polishes up beautifully with the casstrom Lapland leather was, a lovely deep rich colour. It holds the knife well and does not slip out.
I am very happy with the knife and sheath, I will use and treasure them for a very long time. I made the right choice when purchasing this.
In the photo, the blade is currently being resharpened with Japanese water stones, after damage from a hidden nail in a bit of wood.

Great pocket knife
I wanted a EDC knife I could carry out walking/hiking/bushcraft or in my hand bag, just a good solid dependable blade that was good quality, a beautiful product that I would cherish and look after. It has exceeded my expectations, it’s a beautiful handle and blade. Oiled the wood and blade and shines its lovely pattern, it is a joy to use, very sharp. The blade is good quality sturdy design and compliments the larger Lars Fält fixed blade knife.
I also got the leather belt pouch for it, it fits like a glove and compliments the knife beautifully. Very happy with both items. I don’t use the leather strap - personal choice.
I cannot recommend this knife enough, money well spent.
I purchased this useful belt hook to hang my, Hestra Skulman ,outdoor/gardening gloves to keep them close to me when I’m working in the garden. The belt hook has been ideal for this & for keeping keys , a folding saw & various other items close & secure on other occasions while outdoors. I find the stud fastening very useful to easily attach & detach the hanger from my belt, without the need to undo it. I am pleased I came across this practical item.
If you have a 10 you need an 8 and if they ever bring out a bird/small game and a fillet knife its all you would ever need.
Those 4 knives would do all your meat processing.
I can and have made many knife blades but i cant make a blade better than Casstrom .
And not for the money.So why bother.
And boy do they last and take some hammer.
I shoot a deer a week(also many bunnies and duck/goose) and 3 years down the line my 10 is like new.
You cannot beat Casstrom blades ,don't fall for silly price,s ive done it there is no better blade just more expensive.
The No8 is superb.
Bring on the Fillet and trout&game PLEASE.
