Overview

Built for hunters who want a dedicated tool for skinning work, this compact knife is aimed at the demanding jobs that come after the shot. Its purpose-built design reflects a focused approach rather than a do-everything profile, making it well suited to backcountry use where efficiency and control matter. Developed with Cameron Hanes, it carries a hard-use, no-frills character that fits serious field carry. For hunters who prefer a specialized skinning knife over a general-purpose blade, it offers a clear, task-specific option.
