Give @Monarch Country Products a call or PM and I am sure they will sort you out.
Otherwise Cutting Edge Services are excellent.

If you are dealing with roe and muntjac then you can get away with not much more than a Mora Roeing knife and a Mora 6" Boning knife. Add a butcher's steaking knife if you want to slice the haunches into nice looking steaks.

This. The steak knife gets used the least - flexible boning knife and a saw for most of butchery with tripe / roeing knife for skinning.
Victorinox and swibo are excellent.
Ive just taken possession of 3 Victory (NZ) knives.
They have an excellent reputation.
I was going to do a review but heres a link to butchers sets

This will be one of those 'it's the journey, not the destination' scenarios. It's such a personal thing, and you need relatively little equipment to be a competent butcher. I regard myself as being of a high standard when it comes to deer processing, and it's taken many years of purchasing 'fad' items, to finally settle on a good boning knife that suits you, a steak knife and a saw.
My personal preference are knives that are easy to keep an edge on, so they tend to be relatively inexpensive, and a saw of fairly good quality, and all of these items go into the dish washer, on a high heat. I use Victorinox knives, and they really do take some beating, in my personal opinion.
Focus on the butchering techniques, not the fancy equipment.

I assume your existing knives can take care of the tougher larder work - removing feet, head, skinning etc. Moras and scandi grinds are good and tough. You'll want something thinner and more flexible for butchery and filleting the silver skin from the loins, a 15cm Victorinox boning knife is ideal. I like something a bit stiffer for slicing and dicing, any 15cm chef knife is fine. Keep both of these knives away from bone, and prying out hip joints etc, use your mora for that. Then finally any old woodworking saw for sawing bone. Yes you can use a butcher's saw, but they are a pain to wash up. So to summarise I would recommend:
- Mora (which you'll have already)
- 15cm victronix boning knife
- 15cm chef knife
- Any old woodworking saw
And any sharp knifes deserves to be kept out of the dishwasher and washed and dried lovingly - the heat and steam is not good for them.
