➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

I used to use standard size EDC knives that lock when you flip them out, but I recently switched to a folding boxcutter, and I have to say, I really like it. I don't have to worry about sharpening the blades correctly or being careful to not chip or break them. Replacement blades are cheap. Plus, if you send it through the washer, it doesn't get ruined. (Want to wager a guess as to how my last knife got ruined?) Works well for butchering, wood carving, and anything in between.
Box knives are sharp and work. You do have to take them apart to clean them. I prefer a longer cutting edge. Slice as opposed to chop.

Played with a folding boxcutter. The blades are more tender, but easy to replace. Yes, I will sharpen a box cutter blade and have a box of 100 more in the drawer.

I definitely don't like using box cutters for, say, piecing a bird. I use fish knives for that.
