Skinning Knives are used for skinning and field dressing game, and OpticsPlanet has several of the top skinning knife brands, such as Outdoor Edge Cutlery, Titan, Damascus, and Benchmade. When you need to remove the pelt or skin and debone an animal, you need a skinning knife that works for you and is durable, ensuring you make clean cuts. Most outdoorsmen opt for skinning knives for boning game animals because the thin, flexible, and sharp blades separate meat from hide quickly.image

FAQ:

What parts of a skinning hunting knife make a difference?

Size of Your Blade: The right length of your skinning knife depends on the type of game you are going after. For example, if you are focusing primarily on small or medium fish, you need a shorter blade. For larger fish or big game, like when boning a whitetail deer, you need a longer blade to cut through thick tendons and meat.

Blade Weight: A quality skinning knife will be slightly heavier than a poor quality blade. This is because high-quality, full tang blades use more metal than cheaper versions.

Metal: The type of metal used in blade is extremely important. Most people opt for stainless steel, as this resists corrosion and holds an edge better than other options.

Should you get a fixed blade or folding skinning knife?

This largely depends on your preference. Some people prefer folding knives if they are going to be hiking long distances, as you can put the blade in your backpack and not worry about damaging your other equipment. Alternatively, if you are going on a boat or don’t need to adventure far to your hunting spot, you may want a lightweight, fixed blade skinning knife that you can put in a sheathe on your belt.
