The last update changed the way tools work. Skinning knives give meat now, cleavers give hide, etc. It looks very much like a bug, but is apparently intentional? It makes no sense. These are specialized tools that have(had) a purpose. Now, no matter what tool you use you just get random drops.
In-game description of the cleaver:
“The cleaver, a tool perfected by butchers for slicing through flesh, muscle, ligaments and bone, allows the luxury of harvesting more useable flesh from every creature killed. And removing heads without damaging them.”
I have used a cleaver on an animal and got hide and no meat at all. None.
If you’re using a cleaver, you’re using to get meat. Ok, maybe a trophy, but you get my point. If you’re using a skinning knife, you’re using it to get… skin.
Please consider reverting these changes. They are baffling.
