My
Skinner may be a little unconventional but I have designed this knife to
cover a wide range of tasks relating to skinning as well as around camp
and even in the home. The cutting edge is rugged enough to take a lot of
punishment but, if properly sharpened, will do the most delicate cutting
tasks.
The
name which I like for my skinner is "Ubejane" which in Zulu (the native language of the area in South Africa where I
grew up) means Rhinoceros. The Rhino is a large, powerful animal with a
strong up-tilting horn--my skinner echoes those attributes!"--Chris
Reeve. (1990)
The
leather sheath supplied with the Skinner has a strap closure which
passes from left to right around the cross guard. To ensure that the
knife does not fall from the sheath should the strap become unfastened,
there is a nylon stud in place above the cross guard on the right hand
side.
