•••


I have 3 versions of this skinner, identical except for the handle materials - the other two with black and multicolored pakka wood scales. 


Comments: The materials, workmanship and quality control of these skinners is very good for this price range. Solid construction for hard use. I expect you’ll be pleased, especially at this price. I take my own photos and measurements, add my own description. I’ve inspected and photographed every one of these I'm selling and I can recommend them. Some very minor flaws consistent with being handmade in Pakistan are possible. I only tell you this in case you're expecting to get a shiny factory manufactured knife. These are rugged. These are real. And sharp! I’m a collector and a weekend warrior, active in my local HEMA group and Renaissance Fair so I get lots of feedback. See my Seller ratings and buy with confidence, plus I ship fast!

Average 4.7/5 star reviews online for various styles including eBay and Blade Forum.


Blade ForumI've got several knives of this type. They're short, usually curved, with a short rounded handle, and a finger hole. IMHO, it's the best defensive design you can get in a mini-knife.


The small size, clip-pont profile and finger hole for precise control make this knife excellent for hunting, fishing (gutting, skinning and scaling) as well as wood carving. For self defense belt knife but also small enough for boot, neck or pocket knife (please be aware of concealed weopon regulations in your state) and effective for both cutting and stabbing. For home and office I have one I use as a box cutter and letter opener :)

A clip-point blade is like a normal blade with the back 'clipped'. This clip can be either straight or concave. The back edge of the clip may have a false edge that could be sharpened to make a second edge. The sharp tip is useful as a pick, or for cutting in tight places. If the false edge is sharpened it increases the knife's effectiveness in piercing. As well, having the tip closer to the centre of the blade allows greater control in piercing. The Bowie knife is a common example and usually has a pronounced clip point blade.
