Warm lacewood grain and a turquoise accent give this D2 steel Western skinner knife a distinctive place in the SHAM KNIVES collection. Measuring 7 inches overall with a 3.5-inch blade, this compact fixed blade combines a broad skinner profile with traditional Western styling. Its dark blade face contrasts with the bright cutting edge, while the patterned wood handle and tooled leather sheath bring texture and color to the finished presentation.
Broad D2 Steel Blade
The 3.5-inch D2 steel blade features a broad face and a curved cutting edge that sweeps upward toward the tip. A dark matte appearance gives the blade a restrained look, allowing the narrow, brighter edge to stand out. Small notches appear along the spine near the handle, adding another visible detail. The defined blade shape complements the rounded handle and creates a recognizable silhouette within a Western knife collection.
Lacewood and Turquoise Handle
Lacewood brings a detailed grain pattern and golden-brown tones to the handle. A narrow turquoise spacer interrupts the wood with a bright blue accent and contrasting dark veining. Slim borders frame the spacer, keeping the transition clearly defined. Brass-tone pins complement the warm wood coloring, while a lined opening near the rounded rear section provides a point for attaching an optional lanyard. Together, these details create a coordinated and individual appearance.
Tooled Leather Sheath
The accompanying reddish-brown leather sheath continues the Western theme with a basketweave front panel and decorative border tooling. Golden stitching follows the outline and adds contrast against the darker leather edges. Two elongated belt slots appear in the extended backing. The sheath covers the blade between uses and completes the presentation with a traditional accessory that echoes the warm tones of the lacewood handle.
Compact Size and Distinctive Materials
At 7 inches overall, this model offers a compact format for shoppers comparing Western fixed blade designs. The 3.5-inch blade and contrasting handle materials give it a clear visual identity without elaborate ornamentation. It makes a thoughtful gift choice for someone who enjoys cowboy accessories, patterned wood handles, or coordinated knife and sheath combinations. The turquoise spacer provides a small but memorable detail beside the richer lacewood grain.
Care and Storage
Clean the blade after use, dry it thoroughly, and apply a light coat of suitable knife oil before storage. Wipe the handle with a soft cloth and keep moisture exposure brief around the material joints. Keep the leather sheath dry and allow it to air dry naturally when needed. Store the knife separately from its sheath during extended storage. Wood grain, spacer veining, and leather coloring may vary between individual examples.
