what is the best value skinning knife? I am looking for a fix blade that is sold at a premium that will skin everything from deer to squirrel and possibly even birds.
 
The very best skinning knife I've used, for the price, is in the Marttiini Condor series. I use a Little Classic. They cost around $20. They come sharper than Moras out of the box. A heavy duty skinner, for around $50, is the Buck Vanguard with a rubber grip. The Bucklite Max, in orange, is half the cost and just as good.

I'll second the recommendation on the Buck Vanguard. I just did two huge goats with it. We took the legs off with larger knives (Becker BK-5 and Bark River Fox River Magnum), but all the dressing down of the meat once we got home was done with my Vanguard and it's still crazy sharp after working through six legs and about twenty kilos of meat. :thumbup:

(Oh and it started raining half way through, and the rubber grip rocks)
 
Just bought a Buck Paklite 141, so far I'm loving it. One piece of steel, skeletonized handle. I cord wrapped it and good to go.
 
Muela makes more than one skinning knifes with real stag handles with gut hooks and they are good price too. Here is a picture of one and I think the going price is around $90.00 with warranty

To each his own.

Im partial to this Rob Scheppmann knife.

It works great for both small and bigger sized animals - size of the knife is not too small and not too big.







 
I believe that would be Bark River Fox River
