This 9-inch Damascus skinning knife with a gut hook pairs a true 512-layer Damascus blade with a solid dark polished wood handle, secured by two brass pins — a single, deep wood tone rather than the two-tone handle used on a related model in this line.

This is the dark wood handle version, distinctly different from our Damascus Gut Hook Skinner Knife 9" with Two-Tone Wood Handle & Finger Ring — this knife uses a single solid dark wood handle rather than a two-color handle. The finger ring and jimping carry over across both for a secure grip.
Wipe the blade clean and dry after use, then apply a light coat of food-safe or knife oil. Keep the leather sheath dry and let it air-dry separately if it becomes damp.
