They might work okay as skinning knives, but since they are made for kitchen use I don't know I would trust them for other hunting/camping chores.
For an all around outdoors utility knife I would go with a Mora.

First, are you looking for pretty or functional? If pretty, Mora makes some real classy looking fixed blades, I have a Mora Forest Exclusive, this is a high-end version of the Mora Classic and is above your price range as a result at 90ish$, the Mora Classic doesn't look quite as fancy, but they are essentially the same knife (I linked you to the birch handle model, there are many more models of the classic that come in red ochre wood handles as well). At 70ish$ you can get a Kellam Puukko, I don't own one but I've heard good things about these, and more importantly, they look nice. All the knives I have suggested this far are Nordic/Scandinavian style blades, if you want something more "American" looking, Buck has some nice fixed blades for a good price, the Buck Vanguard, Ranger Skinner, Fronteirsman and Skinner are all below budget. Ka Bar makes some knives in this style below your budget as well. The CRKT Hunt n Fisch is beautiful imo, and its about 50$. If you are, in fact, looking for more functional type blades feel free to ask, I kind of assumed you were looking for nicer looking knives since they're formal gifts.
