Wave Damascus runs through the blade in flowing, contrast-etched lines. The spine curves upward toward the tip rather than dropping like a standard skinner. That upward sweep gives the trailing point profile more surface area along the cutting edge, which suits long skinning strokes better than most blade shapes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe handle is built from red pinecone resin, where each embedded pinecone cross-section creates a dark, branching pattern through the red material. No two handles carry the same grain arrangement. A steel bolster caps the blade end, adding front weight and protecting the wood-to-steel junction. A single brass pin secures the handle to the full tang blade beneath.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe knife comes with a brown tooled leather sheath built for belt carry.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.jwsteelcrafts.com\/collections\/handmade-skinner-knives?srsltid=AfmBOootu_n4oS8cDbSqAGYNHOzzr4tY1VVIiTjGjFNBwsRiqrualRaB\" style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003ePinecone Trailing-Point Hunting Skinner\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eat JW Steel Crafts with a red pinecone resin handle, steel bolster, and wave Damascus trailing-point blade.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe History Behind This Blade\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTrailing point skinners were developed for hunters who needed maximum edge length during field dressing.

The trailing point profile delivers more cutting surface along the belly than a drop point shape. Full tang construction keeps the knife balanced and controlled during close field work. The steel bolster adds front weight that makes sweeping cuts feel natural and steady. High-carbon steel benefits from a light oil after each use to stay rust-free.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHandle Construction\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRed pinecone resin covers the handle in a warm, deep tone with dark natural branching through the grain. Each embedded pinecone creates a unique cross-section pattern that shifts from piece to piece. A steel bolster separates the resin from the blade, protecting the junction under repeated use. A single brass pin locks the handle firmly to the full tang blade beneath. The resin material resists moisture better than untreated wood, making it practical for field conditions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBest Used For\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis knife is built for hunters who skin and field dress game regularly. The trailing point edge handles long, clean strokes better than most compact blade shapes. Collectors are drawn to the red pinecone resin and wave Damascus pairing — a combination that reads as much as display art as a hunting tool. Few fixed blades at this size carry this level of handle detail and blade variety together. As a gift, it suits hunters, outdoorsmen, and Damascus knife collectors equally well.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAdd this handcrafted Pinecone
