Overview
Built for hunters who want a dedicated skinning knife without extra bulk, this ultralight design pairs a trailing point profile with a larger belly to support careful hide work. It keeps the compact, portable feel of the original concept while aiming to reduce the chance of unwanted punctures during field use. The 2.0 update adds an integrated finger guard and a slightly longer, thicker skeletonized handle for added strength and easier lanyard wrapping. For hunters who value a lightweight fixed blade with a purpose-driven shape, it offers a focused option for the pack or belt.

| Long Description | Ultralight Skinner - Belly without bulk. Our knife owners love the MKC Speedgoat for its combination of lightness, toughness, and versatility. While there';s very little the drop point blade design can';t do, some hunters prefer a larger blade belly for skinning purposes. You spoke. We listened. The Stoned Goat was born. If our Stonewall Skinner and Speedgoat had a baby, this would be it. The Stoned Goat 2.0 combines the skeletonized, paracord-wrapped handle from the Speedgoat with the trailing point blade shape from the Stonewall - resulting in a knife that reduces the risk of unwanted punctures without sacrificing versatility or ultralight portability. This 2.0 version takes the original design a step further by incorporating an integrated finger guard and a slightly longer (1/8"), thicker skeletonized handle for improved strength and easier lanyard wrapping. |

Considerations & Trade-offs
- The trailing point profile is oriented toward skinning and puncture reduction, so it is less of a general-purpose shape than a drop point for some tasks.
- The skeletonized, paracord-wrapped handle keeps weight down, but it offers a more minimal grip format than a full handle design.
- The integrated finger guard adds control, but it also changes the feel compared with the original Speedgoat-style handle.
- The 2.0 updates include a slightly longer and thicker skeletonized handle, which may improve strength and lanyard wrapping while changing the compact feel of the original design.
