Elk and Osage Skinner-
11"overall with a 4" blade. The Elk and Osage Skinner is a long handled knife with a medium length blade. The "knapped steel" blade is hand forged in a real coal fire. The steel is high carbon alloy from a leaf spring. Once the blade is fashioned it is then hand ground and facetted to give it the look and feel of a knapped flint or obsidian blade. The handle is from a New Mexico Elk metatarsal leg bone and is extended with a piece of Osage Orange wood (Bois' d Arc). The blade is pinned and glued and then wrapped with soft white tail deer skin. The leather on the handle is burn etched with a Eagle feather. This knife comes with its own custom sheath that is made from a thick cowhide inner sheath and covered with soft whitetail deer skin that was tanned at Duck Creek Forge by Craftsman/artist, David Tatom. The inner sheath is riveted with copper rivets to protect the sewn edges. The sheath has long, hand cut fringe with antique trade beads tied into the fringe. A coptic cross on the front with three cowry shells give this custom sheath a look like no other. This knife is sure to get the attention on your belt, but it is hard and sharp and ready to use. $290
