Skinning Knife/ Skinner Knife- High Carbon Damascus Steel Blade- Red Discount Purchase

Skinning Knife – High Carbon Damascus Steel Blade with Red Wood Handle

The skinning knife, also known as a skinner, is an essential tool for hunters, designed with a rounded point to avoid damaging the animal’s hide during skin removal. This specialized hunting knife is perfect for tasks such as skinning game and preparing meat. Unlike knives designed for stabbing, hunting knives like this are optimized for cutting, featuring a single sharpened edge and a slightly curved blade, ideal for slicing and processing meat.

Some skinning knives, including this model, feature both a curved section for skinning and a straight portion for precise meat cutting. This versatile design ensures efficient handling in the field, with some versions incorporating a guthook for added utility.

American Heritage Design

Inspired by the classic Bowie knife, an iconic American fixed-blade knife created by James Black in the early 19th century, this skinning knife pays homage to the legacy of Jim Bowie and the rich history of Arkansas craftsmanship. Bowie knives are characterized by their robust construction, large size, and distinctive clip point. These traits make them not only highly collectible but also highly functional for hunting and skinning tasks.

The blade of this skinning knife, with its strong curve and broad surface, is designed for easy skinning, while the straight edge near the guard is perfect for cutting through meat. All Battling Blades knives, including this one, are crafted with exceptional quality, using thick steel to ensure durability. Whether for hunting or display, this knife is a reliable companion for any outdoor enthusiast. Additionally, its versatility makes it useful for other outdoor tasks, much like a camp or survival knife.

Blade Craftsmanship: Pattern-Welded Damascus Steel

This knife is constructed from premium pattern-welded Damascus steel, a material renowned for its hardness, strength, and durability. The blade is created using 11 pieces of steel, folded five times to form 352 layers, combining carbon steels like 1095, which provides the highest carbon content used in blades. The resulting Rockwell hardness of 55-56 HRC ensures that the blade holds a sharp, powerful edge, while maintaining flexibility and resilience.

Handle and Sheath

The handle is made from rich red wood with brass bolsters, offering both style and a secure, comfortable grip. A custom leather sheath is included to protect the blade and provide easy carry options.
