Full-tang Damascus skinning knife

This 8.5 inch overall hunting knife carries a 4.5 inch full-tang blade forged from 1095 and 15N20 high and low carbon steel. The twist-pattern Damascus steel runs approximately 4 mm thick and is heat-treated to 56 to 58 HRC. A two-tone dollar wood handle scale measures 4 inches and includes four brass pins for strength. It ships new with a thick leather sheath that has a belt loop.

Upgrade from partial-tang or stainless field knives

A full-tang construction removes the handle-break risk found on rat-tail or hidden-tang designs when prying or batoning. The 200-layer Damascus forge weld gives a harder edge than basic stainless while still allowing field sharpening on simple stones. The jump is worth it for hunters who process multiple animals per season and need a blade that holds a keen edge through hide and bone without chipping.

Belt-carried fixed blade for field dressing

The leather sheath secures the knife vertically on a belt so the handle sits ready for a strong grip. Full-tang balance keeps the point controllable during detailed caping work around joints. Because the high-carbon steel rusts if left damp, the sheath must not be used for long-term storage; wipe the blade dry, coat it with oil or wax, and store it separately after each outing.

Questions about this item

What is the overall length and blade length of this knife?

The overall length is 8.5 inches with a 4.5 inch full tang blade.

How should I install or attach the leather sheath for carry?

Slide your belt through the integrated belt loop on the sheath until it sits securely at your waist.

What ongoing care does the Damascus steel blade require?

Clean and oil the blade after each use, never store it long-term in the leather sheath, and apply oil or wax before storage to prevent rust on the high-carbon 1095 and 15N20 steel.
