This 8-inch Damascus skinning knife pairs a warm light-wood section near the blade with a polished black horn pommel section, set off by a brass spacer and pins, with decorative filework and cutouts on the exposed tang continuing into jimping on the spine.

Specifications

Unlike our grey-handle 7-inch skinner and the other skinners in the collection, this knife's exposed, fileworked tang is a visible design feature rather than a hidden full-tang build. There's no gut hook on this model — it's a broad skinning profile built for hide separation and general field trimming.

Keep the Damascus blade clean and dry after use, wipe on a light coat of food-safe mineral oil, and store it outside the leather sheath for long-term storage. Hand wash only.
