Title: Gnat Skinning Knife
Post by: 4est Trekker on May 16, 2012, 02:45:03 am

Here's a micro skinner for dressing and caping gnats, skeeters, and spiders :)  Actually, it's a handy little "bugger."  It's forged from 1080 with a leather handle wrap that has been glued and Massey-finished.  The leather thong is leather and bone.  The neck sheath lanyard is hand-laid linen.  Thanks for looking!
