This trailing point skinner is one of two that I forged in February of this year in hopes of offering it to the folks on my notification list who have so patiently waited for the chance to own one of my pieces. Its damascus steel blade has a very keen edge for fine slicing cuts and has a very light in the hand feel. All work on my creations is done entirely by me and painstakingly forge welded the blade steel from a mix of high-quality tool steels that I have rigorously tested and studied for years now.
The handle is a piece of very nice sambar stag with plenty of character and grip, lending a very classic elegant look to this piece.
The fittings are something I have wanted to try for a while, they are 1018 steel that were bead blasted and heat blued before engraving. After I engraved the floret-acanthus design I re-heat colored the bright cut engraving to a rich golden color for a look that I was quite pleased with.
The leather sheath is made and tooled by me with a forward release to match the blade style and keep the retaining strap clear of the very sharp edge.
