9" Full-Tang Skinning Knife

This hand-forged Damascus steel knife measures 9 inches overall with a 4.5 inch blade and full-tang construction for strength. The natural bull horn handle scales feature a brass bolster and mosaic inlay secured by two brass pins. It is supplied with a thick cow-hide leather sheath that includes a belt loop for field carry. Designed for hunters and outdoor users who need a durable fixed blade for skinning and general camp tasks.

Build Integration

The full-tang blade runs through the handle as a single piece, eliminating the joint weakness found in partial-tang designs. A 5 mm blade thickness adds rigidity for heavy cutting without requiring additional reinforcement. The included leather sheath protects the edge during transport and allows immediate belt mounting, so no separate carry system is needed. Users should note the high-carbon steel will rust if not dried and oiled after each use.

Thermals Noise Power

The 465-layer Damascus blade is heat-treated to 56 to 58 HRC, giving it a hard edge that holds sharpness through extended field dressing sessions. High-carbon 1095 and 15N20 steels require regular wiping and a light coat of oil to prevent surface corrosion in damp conditions. No powered components are present, so the tool generates no heat or noise during operation. Maintenance is limited to cleaning, drying and occasional stropping to keep the edge serviceable.

How hard is the 4.5" Damascus blade on the Rockwell scale?

Does the full-tang construction make the knife heavy for all-day carry?

The 5 mm thick blade and solid bull horn handle add noticeable weight, so expect a substantial feel on the belt.
