The cleaver-style skinner traces its roots to the heavy working blades carried by frontiersmen, trappers, and butchers who needed one tool that could chop, skin, and process game in the field. Its wide belly and forward-weighted profile were born out of necessity a blade that could power through hide, joint, and bone without switching tools. Over time this rugged form earned its place as a trusted companion for anyone working far from the comforts of a kitchen.

As outdoor culture grew, makers refined the cleaver-skinner into a precise hunting tool, pairing carbon steel blades with full-tang construction for maximum strength and balance. The sweeping curved edge became prized for clean skinning strokes, while the broad blade kept its chopping power. This knife carries that working heritage forward — a modern, hand-forged take on a blade shape built for real work in the wild.

Introduction

This handmade Cleaver Skinner Knife is built for hunters and outdoorsmen who want one blade that does it all. Forged from solid carbon steel and ground into a wide, sweeping skinning belly, it delivers controlled cutting power and clean strokes in the field. The full-tang construction runs the entire length of the knife, giving it the strength and balance to handle hard, repeated use without flex or failure.

It belongs to our hunting knives collection, where every blade is shaped, ground, and finished by hand. The skeletonized black Micarta handle keeps weight low while locking your grip in place, wet or dry. Whether you're skinning game, breaking down camp, or processing meat, this cleaver skinner is ready to work straight out of the sheath.

Blade

The 7-inch blade is forged from high-carbon steel, prized for its toughness, easy field sharpening, and excellent edge retention under hard use. Its wide cleaver-style profile with a deep, sweeping belly is purpose-built for skinning and slicing, while the upswept tip gives precise control for detail work. With enough mass to chop and enough curve to skin, it bridges heavy and fine cutting tasks in a single blade.

Handle

The 5-inch handle is crafted from durable black Micarta a layered composite known for its strength, moisture resistance, and rock-solid grip in any weather. Its skeletonized full-tang design cuts weight and improves balance while keeping the blade's strength running end to end. Secured with sturdy fasteners, the handle stays comfortable and locked-in through demanding hunting and camp work, season after season.

Leather Sheath

This knife ships with a hand-stitched genuine leather sheath, fitted to the blade's wide profile for secure, protected carry. The leather shields the carbon steel edge from moisture and impact while keeping the knife at your side and ready in the field. Built to last as long as the blade, it makes the cleaver skinner easy and safe to transport on every trip.

Uses

This cleaver skinner is a true field workhorse: skinning and processing game, slicing and portioning meat, chopping through camp tasks, and general bushcraft and outdoor work. Its broad belly excels at hide work, while the carbon steel edge holds up to repeated heavy use. It's a dependable choice for hunters, campers, and survivalists. For a similar heavy-duty build, the Carbon Steel Tracker Knife offers another rugged hunting and camping option.

Care Instructions ✅

Carbon steel needs simple, regular care to perform for a lifetime. Hand-wash and dry the blade immediately after every use never leave it wet or put it in a dishwasher. Apply a light coat of food-safe mineral oil or blade oil after cleaning to guard against rust and patina. Store the knife in its leather sheath away from humidity, and touch up the edge on a whetstone or honing rod when needed.

Great saddle bag item
Style: Face Stick, Size: 0.45 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I love the size! This small sized product is handy for the outdoorsman. Very convenient to keep in pocket or saddle bag. Product kept my ears, face and back of neck from sun burning. Easy to apply and rub in and was actually not oily feeling like most others. And an added bonus it help to keep nats and mosquitoes away from face, ears and neck!

Love the stick! I’m not a baby.
Style: Face Stick, Size: 0.45 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I don’t have babies anymore just teens, but I keep one of these in the car for back of my hands. It doesn’t either freeze nor get hot melty and gloopy and separated like a cream. Withstands both extreme summer and below freezing winter temps. Also you easily swipe it on in 2 seconds, avoiding getting palms slimy to facilitate driving. However I drive less than I spend time on my screened in porch. I’m not in direct sun, only shade, but by now we know that it’s uva light even hitting you on cloudy rain through windows that is aging and causing cancer. So I’m getting TONS of uv light. Every time I go out there, I swipe it on the back of my hands, since spf wears off quickly there from dishes hand washing etc. Since I’ve been doing this, age spots have faded off my hands. Hands age very fast. It doesn’t clutter and look sloppy on porch, and again, doesn’t freeze or melt! And a whopping 19.2% zinc is CRAZY!! I could of course see this being perfect for babies faces since it wouldn’t run into the eyes and it’s gentle as heck on skin. It is like totally thick and white though, if that matters to you or your baby. I also keep the adult sun bum stick (not mineral) in my purse. Takes up no room. It is less white/more cosmetically elegant than baby mineral one, and I touch up my face with it. I reapply sunscreen every 2 hours (don’t wear makeup). These things are perfect!!!! They last forever too.

Small small size but nice to carry around in purse or beach bag.
Style: Face Stick, Size: 0.45 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This sunblock works really well. I like that it is only mineral based and it glides on easily . Due to its compact size I can carry this in my makeup bag. I placed sunblock every 2 hours on my face while I was in the swimming pool and I never got a sunburn. Pricey but easy to apply and compact size .

Great product, just wish I had read the description better because this stick is TINY. On the flip side, its easy to carry around and doesn't gulf my baby's face.
