I've been waiting for someone else to give this a kick start. The model 113 first appears in the 2010 Catalog as part of the Boone & Crockett Collection. It was called the Small Elk Skinner. The 2011 Legacy catalog shows a Yellowhorse Wild Mustangs Skinner. The regular 2011 catalog then introduces the standard 113 Ranger Skinner with a Macassar Dymondwood handle. The 113 has had a successful run in the product line with many variations. Here is the August 2022 BOTM iteration in Honduran Rosewood and CPM154 steel.

This is the only one I own, bought it in 2012 at a Dick’s Sporting Goods in Jacksonville NC (long before they got out of guns and hunting). As I recall, the first place I ever saw reference to one was in a NRA advertisement, a certain size donation would get you one. Anyone else remember that (or do I have it wrong?). Should have some sort of NRA engraving or etching on it. OH
