Western Pair Damascus Skinning Knives – Pine Cone Handles & Sheaths

Western Pair Damascus Skinning Knives – Pine Cone Handles & Sheaths

This Western Pair is a handmade two-piece skinning knife set created for hunting, field dressing, ranch work, and suitable outdoor cutting tasks. Each fixed-blade knife measures 7 inches overall and features a 3.5-inch Damascus steel blade, a pine cone resin handle, and an individual cross-draw leather belt sheath. Matching blade profiles and contrasting handle colors give the pair a coordinated yet distinctive presentation.

The photograph shows both knives included in the set. Each has a broad blade with a curved cutting belly, defined point, patterned steel face, and decorative guard-style transition near the handle. The compact dimensions provide a substantial working edge without the length of a larger hunting knife, making the pair suitable for users who prefer controlled fixed-blade profiles.

Two Damascus Skinning Blades

Each knife has a 3.5-inch Damascus steel blade displaying flowing layered and oval-shaped patterns. The rounded cutting bellies provide useful edge length for controlled slicing and skinning motions, while the defined points support careful detail work during field preparation. Patterned sections continue through the blade-to-handle transitions, complementing the decorative profiles. No unconfirmed layer count, steel composition, hardness rating, blade thickness, or edge-retention period is stated.

Contrasting Pine Cone Resin Handles

The two handles combine natural pine cone structures with resin in different color treatments. One displays earthy brown, olive, and cream tones, while the other features bright turquoise-blue coloring with dark natural details. Visible pins secure the handle scales, and lined openings near the rear provide attachment points for customer-supplied lanyards. Pine cone placement, resin color, and natural markings may vary between handmade sets.

Individual Cross-Draw Belt Sheaths

Both knives include their own brown leather sheaths. The pictured pancake-style sheaths feature light contrasting stitching, stamped basket-weave center panels, and decorative borders. Elongated belt slots are positioned on both sides. Depending on belt width and the wearer’s setup, these slots may support horizontal or cross-draw positioning while keeping each covered knife close to the belt.

For Hunting and Field Dressing

This Western Pair offers matching compact blades for hunters who want two coordinated field knives or a set that can be shared with a hunting partner. Its colorful natural-material handles and tooled sheaths also provide strong collector and gift appeal. Browse related designs in our handmade skinning knives and hunting knives collections.

Care Instructions

Hand-clean each blade after use and dry it completely. Apply a thin coating of suitable knife oil before storage. Avoid dishwashers, abrasive cleaners, and prolonged moisture exposure. Wipe the resin handles with a soft cloth and condition the leather sheaths periodically. During extended storage, keep the clean, oiled blades outside their sheaths to reduce trapped moisture.
