A hunting knife serves more than one purpose. These include, but are not limited to, skinning animals and splitting through the ribcage and bone. Consider how you will use your knife and what type of game you plan to pursue. Big game hunters will use a different kind of knife than those preying on rabbits and squirrels. Large knives can be cumbersome when working with small animals. The risk of getting cut also increases.
You have to take into consideration how often you plan to use your knife. Occasional hunters, that use their knife for more than one purpose, tend to purchase knives with smaller blades that fold. Avid hunters are more likely to purchase a fixed blade knife.
"To sheath or not to sheath?" is the next question. Of course, fixed blades need a sheath. Folding knives might better serve you without a sheath.
