Camel Bone Handle Damascus Skinner Knife — Finger Choil & Black Leather Sheath

Damascus Steel Skinner with a Bone Handle That Stands Out.

This handmade Damascus steel skinner knife is built around a drop-point blade forged from layered Damascus steel — multiple alloys folded and welded under heat and hammer until the layers create a swirling pattern unique to every blade. A finger choil at the ricasso allows the index finger to choke up on the blade for precise skinning control. The stacked camel bone handle is built from sections of natural color bone with warm honey and cream tones, separated by black spacer rings that create a clean contrast between the bone sections. The rounded pommel balances the blade weight and completes the handle profile. The black leather sheath features multiple belt loop slots and black snap rivets for secure field carry.

The Damascus Blade

The blade is hand forged from layered Damascus steel — multiple alloys folded and welded under heat and hammer until the layers create a swirling pattern unique to every blade. The drop-point skinner profile gives the blade a wide belly for field dressing and skinning, with a controlled tip that reduces the risk of puncturing organs during field dressing. The finger choil at the ricasso — a small curved notch just ahead of the handle — allows the index finger to choke up on the blade for precise, controlled skinning cuts. No two Damascus blades are identical.

The Camel Bone Handle

The stacked camel bone handle is built from sections of natural color bone with warm honey and cream tones — each section showing the natural grain and texture of the bone material. Black spacer rings separate the bone sections, creating a clean dark contrast between the warm bone tones. The rounded pommel at the top of the handle balances the blade weight and provides a comfortable palm rest during extended field use. The natural variation in bone color and grain makes every handle unique.

The Leather Sheath

The black leather sheath is shaped to fit the drop-point skinner blade securely. Multiple horizontal belt loop slots allow the sheath to be mounted in different carry positions. Black snap rivets secure the sheath straps. Heavy stitching runs along the sheath edges. A practical, well-built sheath for a working field knife.

Knife Care Instructions

• Dry the blade immediately after any moisture contact
• Apply mineral oil to the Damascus blade regularly to maintain the pattern
• Clean the camel bone handle with a soft dry cloth
• Condition the leather sheath with leather conditioner

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a finger choil on a skinner knife?
A: A finger choil is a small curved notch cut into the blade just ahead of the handle at the ricasso. It allows the index finger to choke up on the blade — moving the grip closer to the blade for more precise, controlled skinning cuts. It is a practical feature on working field knives.

Q: What is camel bone handle material?
A: Camel bone is a natural handle material with warm honey and cream tones and a distinctive natural grain texture. Each bone section has unique natural markings — no two camel bone handles are identical. It is durable, lightweight, and has been used in traditional knife making for centuries.

Q: Does it come with a sheath?
A: Yes. Every knife includes a black leather sheath with multiple belt loop slots and black snap rivets for secure field carry.
