I have been looking for a dedicated skinning knife for over a year. Looked at lots of different models by tons of makers: Bone Collector, Condor, customs, all sorts. Never saw anything that was quite what I was looking for. Lots of promise in custom makers, but very little in anything stainless. Well today I went in to see my favorite local blade pusher and found exactly what I've been looking for.

Enter the White River Knife and Tool Knucklehead:

Sorry for the crappy cell shot, camera batteries are dead.

Skeleton design so I don't have to worry about blood getting in anywhere (important when dealing with pigs), S30V so no worry about it rusting in the swamp (I've had rust form within a couple hours on a misty day with high carbon), should have good edge retention as well. Insanely comfortable grip. And hey, even a built in bottle opener (the little tab in the rear circle). I can't wait for hunting season so I can try this bad boy out!

I had never seen WRKT in person but they have some very nice looking knives. I may be picking up one of their edc models.
 
I'd love to hear what you think of it once it gets some use, they have a few designs I'm interested in...never pulled the trigger though:)
 
Well I tell you what, their edc knives look very nice. The grinds look very clean and the finishes are great. I'll do a review on it next time I drop something. Might be a while though, I don't have access to private land and public land doesn't open until around Thanksgiving. Too bad I discovered this bad boy in the off season huh?

Sounds good! I'll be looking forward to it:D and yeah, it seems like every time you get a knife you can't seem to find any thing that needs cut:p
