CSFIF Hand Crafted Skinner Knife Ladder Damascus Mixed Material Sports Closeout

A Skinners Knife, sometimes known as a skinning knife, is a professional tool used by skinners. A skinner knife usually has a wide, short blade. The edge is rigid and has no flexibility or spring. Knives for skinning are more of a hunting tool than a weapon.

Damascus is a mixture of 1095 and 15N20, they are heated and then folded over and over to get the desired layers. The blade is burned in acid and it turns the layers into different colors. The layering process also results in a blade that is harder and durable than a single type of steel.

The ladder pattern in this Damascus steel is an exquisite display of precision and elegance. The alternating bands of metal create a ladder-like effect, with each rung perfectly formed and polished to a mirror-like finish. The pattern is clean and crisp, with sharp lines that catch the light in a dazzling display. The ladder pattern adds depth and texture to the steel, giving it a sophisticated and refined look that is both understated and striking.
