9-inch full-tang skinning knife with gut hook

This hand-forged Damascus steel knife is built for hunters and field dressers who need a durable, full-tang blade with a gut hook for efficient processing. The 9-inch overall length and clip-point profile suit skinning tasks on medium to large game. It comes with a thick cowhide leather sheath that includes a belt loop for carry.

200-layer Damascus steel forged from 1095

The blade contains approximately 200 layers of high and low carbon steel, giving it a distinctive twist pattern and a hardness suited to holding a keen edge. Because the steel is high-carbon, it will rust if moisture is left on the surface. The supplier advises cleaning and oiling after each use and warns against long-term storage in the leather sheath, which can absorb water.

Camel bone handle scale with mosaic brass pins

One handle scale is natural camel bone fitted with a mosaic brass pin and an inserting hole for added strength. The bolster is also Damascus steel. Buyers should verify that the handle materials and full-tang construction meet their preference for grip texture and balance before ordering. The knife is very sharp out of the box and intended for users aged 18 and over.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 4.5 inch scale or a different handle length?

This knife has a single 4.5 inch camel bone scale with a mosaic brass pin and inserting hole; no alternative handle lengths are offered.

What does the 200 layer Damascus blade mean for skinning performance?

The 200 layer forged 1095 and 15N20 steel gives a hard edge that holds sharpness through field dressing, while the twist pattern resists chipping during heavy use.

How does the full tang construction affect strength?

The full tang runs the entire 9 inch length, so the handle scales are pinned directly to solid steel, eliminating the weak point found in partial tang knives.
