Purpose-built skinning knife

The Damascus Depot 9" Skinning Knife is a hand-forged full-tang tool designed for hunters and outdoorspeople who need a dedicated blade for field dressing. Its 4.5" blade and overall 9" length give precise control when working around hide and bone. The camel bone and buffalo horn scales with a Damascus bolster provide a secure grip in wet conditions.

Capacity and headroom

The 4.5" full-tang blade made from 465-layer 1095/15N20 steel handles deer-sized game comfortably and holds a keen edge through extended processing sessions. Thicker bone or heavy joint work will exceed the blade's leverage and 4 mm thickness, so a dedicated boning saw or larger chopper becomes necessary for those tasks.

Build quality and daily implications

Twist-pattern Damascus steel forged from high and low carbon layers delivers strength and edge retention, while the red fiber and brass spacers add structural reinforcement to the handle scales. Four silver pins lock the scales to the tang for lasting durability. The included thick leather sheath has a belt loop for carry, but leather absorbs moisture so the knife must be cleaned, oiled and stored outside the sheath to prevent rust.

Questions about this item

Will the 4.5 inch full tang blade fit my existing 9 inch sheath?

The knife measures 9 inches overall with a 4.5 inch blade and includes a thick leather sheath with a belt loop, so no extra sheath is needed.

How do I confirm the 465-layer Damascus blade is performing correctly after first use?

The twist-pattern blade should hold a sharp edge through field dressing; clean and oil the 1095/15N20 steel after each use to prevent rust.

Does the camel bone and horn handle come with the leather sheath or must I buy it separately?

The knife ships with a robust cowhide leather sheath that has a belt loop; the handle scales and bolster are already fitted.
