SOLD
Backwoods mini skinner, cold blued finish (it will wear as you use it, but eventually becomes a nice light patina)
OAL 6 inches
Blade is 2 5/8
15n20 approx 1/16 stock
Handle scales are osage orange with linseed oil
10 degree primary edge bevel with a 15 degree edge, cuts really nice.
Pins are old 1/8 drill bit sections.
Sheath is a bit rough, but it works okay.
MUCH large photo http://sietchtabr.googlepages.com/skinner-full.jpg
Deliberately rough finish again, with some aging and bluing for a good patina. Just a take it out and use it knife. I first encountered this style in new england and still think of them as "new england utility razors" as much as skinners.
Asking $55 shipped for this one. paypal or ??
