Pecos Rider 4″ D2 Skinning Knife – Epoxy Handle & Belt Sheath

Pecos Rider 4″ D2 Skinning Knife – Epoxy Handle & Belt Sheath

The Pecos Rider is a handmade Western skinning knife created for hunting, field dressing, ranch work, and outdoor cutting tasks. Measuring 8 inches overall, it features a 4-inch D2 steel blade, a colorful epoxy resin handle, and a floral leather belt sheath. Its compact fixed-blade construction combines a functional hunting profile with bold materials and traditional cowboy styling.

The product image shows a broad blade with a gently curved cutting edge and a defined point. This practical profile provides a generous working edge for controlled skinning and field-dressing cuts. A dark cowboy figure decorates the polished blade face, adding a recognizable Pecos Rider theme without overwhelming the knife’s clean appearance.

Four-Inch D2 Steel Blade

The 4-inch blade is identified as D2 steel and displays a bright polished finish. Its curved belly is shaped for steady slicing motions, while the compact point supports more detailed cutting. A pronounced finger area beneath the blade-to-handle transition helps visually define the grip position. No unconfirmed hardness rating, edge-retention period, or blade thickness is stated for this knife.

Colorful Epoxy Resin Handle

The shaped handle features blue, purple, white, and brown epoxy resin patterns. Its layered appearance gives the knife an individual character, and the pattern may vary slightly from one handmade piece to another. Visible handle pins secure the scales, while a lined opening near the rear can accommodate a customer-supplied lanyard. The curved underside and shaped profile complement the knife’s compact Western form.

Floral Western Belt Sheath

A light brown leather sheath is included with the pictured knife. Its front panel features floral and scorpion-style tooling with bright blue accents that coordinate with the handle. Stitched edges reinforce the sheath’s outline, while multiple elongated belt slots provide flexible positioning. Depending on belt dimensions and personal setup, its pancake-style construction may support horizontal or cross-draw carry.

For Hunting and Field Dressing

The Pecos Rider is sized for hunters who prefer a manageable fixed blade for skinning, field dressing, and suitable campsite cutting. Its polished D2 blade, colorful resin handle, and decorated sheath also make it an attractive addition to a Western knife collection.

Care Instructions

Clean the blade by hand after use and dry it completely before storage. Apply a thin coating of suitable knife oil, particularly after exposure to moisture. Do not use a dishwasher or leave the knife soaking in water. Wipe the epoxy handle clean with a soft cloth. Periodically condition the leather with an appropriate product, and store the blade outside the sheath during extended storage to reduce trapped moisture.
