An 8.5-inch skinner with a 4.25-inch Damascus blade, finished with a bone handle in red, black, and white tones and a mosaic pin set into the grip — a small decorative detail most knives at this price skip entirely. It’s a working skinner knife dressed with more craftsmanship in the handle than the price tag would suggest.
The Blade
Hand-forged from 1095 and 15N20 steel into a twist Damascus pattern, hardened to 58-60 HRC. That hardness range holds a real working edge — this isn’t a display-only piece, it’s built to actually skin and handle field tasks.
The Mosaic Pin Detail
Most handles in this price range use plain steel pins to secure the scales. This one uses a mosaic pin — a small decorative insert that adds visual interest without adding to the cost in any meaningful way. It’s the kind of detail that separates a knife someone actually thought about from one built purely to spec.
Built for Regular Use
At 160 grams with a half-tang construction, it’s light and easy to handle for extended field work. It ships with a brown leather sheath built with belt space for real carry.
