Hawkwing Skinner Knife 6" Purple Pinecone Handle Full Tang Western Cross Draw Sheath

The Hawkwing Skinner Knife continues a tradition of turning worn farrier tools into working blades. Old hoof rasps were reforged by skilled smiths once the original tool wore down from daily use, giving the steel a second life as a durable, textured blade. This practice gave old tools a real character you won't find in factory steel. That same tradition shapes every Drop Point Hunting Knife we forge today.

Purple pinecone resin handles became a distinctive choice among custom knife makers for their unique, layered visual texture. No two handles look exactly alike since each is cut from a different section of the resin block, giving every knife a genuinely one-of-a-kind grip.

Introduction

The Hawkwing Skinner Knife brings together rugged rasp steel with a bold, colorful handle. At 6 inches overall, it's sized right for controlled skinning work without feeling bulky in the hand. As a Precision Skinning Blade, its rasp steel construction carries the rugged character that only comes from reforged tool steel. The purple pinecone resin handle gives this knife a distinctive, layered look that stands out from typical wood or bone handles. As a Field Dressing Knife, the included cross-draw sheath keeps the blade protected and ready for quick, one-handed access.
