The Fairness and Effectiveness of Knife Hunting

TLDR Knife hunting is considered by some to be the fairest way to hunt, as it maintains the principle of fair chase and avoids giving the hunter an unfair advantage over the prey. It is mostly used for hunting wild boar and involves using dogs to startle the boar and then getting close enough to stab it to death, making it a fairer method compared to being up in a tree.
