Built for the field, finished like a showpiece.
This compact skinner features a striking 1084 carbon steel and copper Damascus blade, forged from a billet crafted by Iron Beak Forge in Idaho, an Army Veteran-owned forge known for producing steel with both performance and story behind it. The blade carries a deep, blackened etched finish that highlights the layered Damascus pattern like smoke frozen in steel.
The handle is made from stabilized black ash burl, bringing durability and a rich, organic grain that feels right at home in your hand. Accented with brass pins and a mosaic bear pin, this piece walks the line between rugged utility and heirloom craftsmanship.
Paired with a custom-fit Kydex sheath, it’s ready to ride with you wherever the work takes you.
Hand-forged Damascus blade (carbon steel & copper)
Blacked-out etched finish
Stabilized black ash wood handle
Brass pin hardware
Mosaic bear pin detail 🐻
Compact skinner profile
Includes Kydex sheath
Billet forged by Iron Beak Forge (Idaho, USA, Army Veteran)
This blade is made from high carbon steel, which means it requires regular care:
Keep the blade clean, dry, and lightly oiled to prevent rust
Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or humidity
The blackened etched finish can scratch with use — this is normal with carbon steel finishes
The blade can be re-etched if desired; feel free to reach out and we’ll walk you through the process
This isn’t a “set it and forget it” blade. It’s a tool that rewards attention and use.
