Trappers needed a curve that followed the animal rather than cutting into it. Pattern-welded steel reaches much further back. Smiths in Persia, India, and Northern Europe stacked and folded bars for centuries. Divine Knives builds that layered stock into a graduated hunting group.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUpswept Damascus Skinner Knives in the Field\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePick the size to match the animal. The 11-inch blade opens and quarters larger game. The 9-inch pair works close around joints and hooves. Keep the edge angle shallow and let the curve travel. Force ruins a skinning cut. Patience saves the hide. Every pommel carries a lanyard hole for a wet hand. The two sub-hilt grips lock your fingers in two places. That matters late in a long session. The other three ride on a single flared guard.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003ePieces:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 5\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eOverall Length Range:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 9 to 11 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eLargest Knife:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 11 inches overall, 6.5-inch blade, 4.5-inch handle\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eSmallest Knife:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 9 inches overall, 5-inch blade, 4-inch handle\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eBlade Material:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Forged Damascus steel, high-carbon and nickel layer stack\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eBlade Pattern:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Wood grain\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eBlade Finish:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e High polish, acid-etched\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eBlade Shape:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Upswept trailing point skinner\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eHandle Materials:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Black horn with cream bone on 2, jigged striped bone on 1, cream striated bone on 1, flame walnut on 1\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eGuards:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Sub-hilt double guard on 2, flared Damascus single guard on 3\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003ePins:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 5 per sub-hilt knife, 3 per single-guard knife, solid silver finish\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003ePommel:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Damascus, flared, with round lanyard hole on all five\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eTang:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Full tang with exposed liner on all five\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFull Tang Damascus Skinner Knife Set Construction\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEvery tang runs the full length of the handle and shows along both scale edges.
