Forged Skinner - Whelen / DeWeese inspired
Scandivex Grind, brute de forge finish, Rosewood/Bubinga over white G10 over black G10. Copper / Stainless mosaic pin and copper tube.
Firesteel inclued at no charge due to a small crack in the wood on the firesteel handle. Hardly noticeable and does not effect function.
No sheath.
The shorter handle is intended for a palm grip when skinning. It's still long enough to get all 4 fingers on for most guys.
4 3/16" blade | 4" trip to choil | 7 3/4" overall | 3/16 80CrV2 blade stock | 4/5 handle thickness


Kydex and hand made leather sheath options are available.


I began making PL knives in 2016. I've done leather work for over 20. I added kydex to my repertoire in the last 3 years. The heat treat on all of my carbon steel knives is done by me in a thermostatically controlled Evenheat knifemaking kiln. Each blade goes through a 3 stage normalization process, followed by heating to austenitic temperature and quench in Parks 50 oil. Then it goes through a 2 stage tempering process. Hardness is 61-62 hrc. Scales are glued with West Systems G-flex epoxy. My aim is to produce heirloom quality tools with excellent craftsmanship that will provide a lifetime of enjoyment and service.
