The cleaver-style skinner traces its roots to the heavy working blades carried by frontiersmen, trappers, and butchers who needed one tool that could chop, skin, and process game in the field. Its wide belly and forward-weighted profile were born out of necessity a blade that could power through hide, joint, and bone without switching tools. Over time this rugged form earned its place as a trusted companion for anyone working far from the comforts of a kitchen.

As outdoor culture grew, makers refined the cleaver-skinner into a precise hunting tool, pairing carbon steel blades with full-tang construction for maximum strength and balance. The sweeping curved edge became prized for clean skinning strokes, while the broad blade kept its chopping power. This knife carries that working heritage forward — a modern, hand-forged take on a blade shape built for real work in the wild.

Introduction

This handmade Cleaver Skinner Knife is built for hunters and outdoorsmen who want one blade that does it all. Forged from solid carbon steel and ground into a wide, sweeping skinning belly, it delivers controlled cutting power and clean strokes in the field. The full-tang construction runs the entire length of the knife, giving it the strength and balance to handle hard, repeated use without flex or failure.

It belongs to our hunting knives collection, where every blade is shaped, ground, and finished by hand. The skeletonized black Micarta handle keeps weight low while locking your grip in place, wet or dry. Whether you're skinning game, breaking down camp, or processing meat, this cleaver skinner is ready to work straight out of the sheath.

Blade

The 7-inch blade is forged from high-carbon steel, prized for its toughness, easy field sharpening, and excellent edge retention under hard use. Its wide cleaver-style profile with a deep, sweeping belly is purpose-built for skinning and slicing, while the upswept tip gives precise control for detail work. With enough mass to chop and enough curve to skin, it bridges heavy and fine cutting tasks in a single blade.

Handle

The 5-inch handle is crafted from durable black Micarta a layered composite known for its strength, moisture resistance, and rock-solid grip in any weather. Its skeletonized full-tang design cuts weight and improves balance while keeping the blade's strength running end to end. Secured with sturdy fasteners, the handle stays comfortable and locked-in through demanding hunting and camp work, season after season.

Leather Sheath

This knife ships with a hand-stitched genuine leather sheath, fitted to the blade's wide profile for secure, protected carry. The leather shields the carbon steel edge from moisture and impact while keeping the knife at your side and ready in the field. Built to last as long as the blade, it makes the cleaver skinner easy and safe to transport on every trip.

Uses

This cleaver skinner is a true field workhorse: skinning and processing game, slicing and portioning meat, chopping through camp tasks, and general bushcraft and outdoor work. Its broad belly excels at hide work, while the carbon steel edge holds up to repeated heavy use. It's a dependable choice for hunters, campers, and survivalists. For a similar heavy-duty build, the Carbon Steel Tracker Knife offers another rugged hunting and camping option.

Care Instructions ✅

Carbon steel needs simple, regular care to perform for a lifetime. Hand-wash and dry the blade immediately after every use never leave it wet or put it in a dishwasher. Apply a light coat of food-safe mineral oil or blade oil after cleaning to guard against rust and patina. Store the knife in its leather sheath away from humidity, and touch up the edge on a whetstone or honing rod when needed.

My new favorite summer sandal!
Size: 8.5, Color: Bay Fog
I am loving these shoes so far this summer! The color is so cute, perfect for a light summer palette. It's the perfect light purple that doesn't make me look pale or washed out. For reference, I have fair to light neutral skin tone. They are SO comfortable - a little too comfortable for a shoe, it's more comfortable than my ugg slippers! They do take a second to put on as you have to either force your ankle in without unstrapping the back - don't judge me - or undo them. Thankfully they have a strap to help get them on easily. I love these shoes. I am a medium width, but I think these have some wiggle room since both the straps are velcro and adjustable somewhat. They are easy to walk in, hold onto the foot, have been more balanced than some others I have had in this platform style, and are very cushioned to walk in. Slight arch support to me but I have somewhat high arches so if you are more flat footed or standard arch these will give you even better support. Really impressed with these. They are more casual but work with many different outfits from sundresses to jeans. For me, these were a great buy and I will be wearing them all summer.

Style, Comfort
Size: 9, Color: Sand
If I could give a Ten Star review, I would. Hands down the most comfortable pair of sandals I have ever owned. I wore them 16 days straight while touring Italy. Comfortable and goes with all of your outfits. They pack well in a suitcase too. Light weight.

Wonderful
Super comfy and easy on and off, yet stylish imo! I could walk miles in these as a 56 yo and have worn them for three years! I hope they never stop making them. The only tweek I would suggest is to cover the footbed with leather or suede not cloth so they would last longer!
