Overview
Built for hunters who want a dedicated skinner with minimal bulk, this knife focuses on controlled work where a larger belly can be useful. Its trailing point profile is intended to help reduce the risk of unwanted punctures while still keeping the overall package ultralight and easy to carry. The 2.0 update adds an integrated finger guard and a slightly longer, thicker skeletonized handle for added strength and easier lanyard wrapping. It suits backcountry and field use where portability matters, but it remains a purpose-driven design rather than a general all-around blade.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- The trailing point profile is oriented toward skinning and puncture control, so it is less of a general-purpose shape than a drop point for some field tasks.
- The skeletonized, paracord-wrapped handle keeps the knife ultralight, but it does not offer the same full-hand fill or bulk as a more substantial handle design.
- The 2.0 update adds an integrated finger guard and a slightly longer, thicker skeletonized handle, which improves security and lanyard wrapping but still keeps the knife in a minimalist carry format.
- This model is positioned as an ultralight skinner, so hunters wanting a larger blade belly or a more all-around knife may prefer a different profile.
