What we forge

Skinners are the deepest category we forge. The line covers drop-point and trailing-point skinners, caping knives for detail work, and gut-hook skinners, in 3 to 5 inch blades that give a hunter control at the hide. Blades are full-tang in Damascus, Wootz and D2 tool steel, ground with the belly a skinner needs, and each ships with a hand-stitched leather sheath.

A workhorse dealers reorder

Skinning knives are a consumable in the best way: hunters, outfitters, meat processors and taxidermists buy them, use them hard, and come back. For a sporting-goods or gun-shop buyer, skinners are a dependable seasonal reorder, and a mixed lot of hand-forged USA skinners at a working price point outsells the imported gut-hook combos on the peg wall.

Steel for the field

D2 gives a harder, semi-stainless edge that suits wet, bloody work and low maintenance. Damascus and Wootz give the figure and the story for the buyer who wants a keepsake skinner. All blades are heat-treated to hold an edge through a full field-dressing job.

Skinning Knives: Dealer FAQ

What is the difference between a skinner and a caping knife?

A skinner has a broad belly for removing hide efficiently; a caping knife is smaller and finer for detail work around the head and cape. We forge both.

Do your skinning knives have a gut hook?

Gut-hook skinners are available alongside plain drop-point and trailing-point models.

Are they finished in the USA with a sheath?

Yes, hand-forged and shipped with a hand-stitched leather sheath.

Can I buy skinning knives in bulk?

Yes, at a 10-piece minimum with dealer pricing set with your rep.
