What  kind of knife and size blade is the best for sticking large boar . brand, just your 2 cent

I've found some on trueswords.com they real cheap and do the job the one I use has a 10 1/2 in.blade called the pigsticker but they have others boarbuster,Alabama slammer they all made of 440 gag stainless and if you loose them you can sleep at night cause like I said they are cheap

[slimpickins]

6 inch, sharp point, full tang with finger guard so it don't slip if you get on top of a rib, cheap. In that order.
Also, I like nylon scabbard over leather for these, better air to dry.
Leather holds moisture (blood) and the acids can ruin it (leather and steel both) if you forget to wash/dry it everytime.

i use a kbar knockoff.  i don't remember what i paid for it but it wasn't much.  so pretty much what slim said

I use a ColdSteel Boarmaster, 8  3/4" blade, finger guard, overall a nice knife!

When I do stick it is a home made out of a big file works like a charm if u have a little time it is sure rewarding when u stick one with something u have made ur self

Boar Spear Point Defender from Wild Boar USA/Ugly Dog Ranch. It gets the job done and at $12 if I drop I am not worried. If you are looking for a family heirloom and want to spend more money go ahead. I do also have a Winchester knife that was about $35. But I like the cheap knife because it used for sticking pigs.

Wow dude. I need you until I can get a solid catch dog! ;

[Purebreedcolt]

I don't have the patience either that is why it is nothing more than a sometimes hobby hog hunting and work takes up most of the rest lol

 What ever you do choose as a sticker make sure that it is as sharp as you can get it before every hunt.

[treeingratterrier]

I like to use those kbar klones or something similar with ablood letter, i usually take a grinder wheel and ruff up all of the metal and handle and finger guard, then i prime it with rustoluem, then paint it hunter organge and bake it in over for 3 or 4 hours, that way if u drop it at a hog stick or at night you have a chance of finding it in the mud or grass, i also took one and drilled a hole in it and got  snare wire and put one of those led tiny flashlites from Walmart so if skiing a hog i can stick the knfe in the dirt and see its light blinking to find it after loading up dogs and hogs, we used to buy the real Kbar from Col Bubbys Strand Surplus for $10 each pure usa surplus, omg those were the days!!!!

Kabar USMC survival knife with the 6 7/8" blade. Sharpen the blade and the top side of the blade about 1 inch starting at the tip. This knife is bad to the bone and lasts forever if taken care of. I soaked the sheath in lins seed oil to water proof it and this also keeps the blade from rusting.

Overall length is 12 inches and not heavy or bulky. I have cut saplings 2" in diameter and the knife still holds an edge.
