This model has no gut hook — a practical skinner profile suited to camp and hunting use. It's forged in a layered process using J2 with 1095/15N20 steel but finished plain rather than etched, giving it a clean, working-tool look distinct from our patterned Damascus skinners.
J2 is a carbon steel and should be kept dry: hand wash only, dry immediately, and apply a light coat of food-safe or knife oil after cleaning and before storage. Skip the dishwasher and prolonged soaking.
