Key Features of the Red Pinecone Skinner Knife
- D2 tool steel blade: excellent edge retention and wear resistance, in a classic skinner shape with a curved belly and a strong tip.
- Fixed blade design: no moving parts, so the knife stays strong, simple and reliable in the field.
- Black powder coat finish: a dark, low-glare coating that gives the blade a rugged, tactical appearance.
- Red pinecone handle material: red with dark swirls from the pinecone, so every handle looks a little different.
- Brass bolsters: polished brass at the front of the handle adds strength and a warm gold accent.
- Included sheath: black Italian leather with a basket-weave front, red edge stitching, a belt loop and a brass snap strap.
- Handmade: shaped and finished by hand.
Product Description
Red against black is a strong combination, and this knife uses it well. The fixed blade has a flat black powder coat that cuts reflection in the field. The red pinecone handle has a deep, layered look that stands out against the dark steel and the gold of the brass bolsters.
The blade is made of D2 tool steel, popular with knife makers for how long it holds an edge. The skinner shape, with its broad, curved belly, is made for long, smooth cuts when working a hide. The handle is fixed with a pin and shaped to sit comfortably in the hand.
The included sheath is made of black Italian leather. The front has a basket-weave pattern, the edges are sewn with red thread that matches the handle, and a brass snap strap keeps the knife secure. It protects the fixed blade and carries easily on a belt.

What Is Pinecone Handle Material?
Pinecone handle scales are made from real pinecone pieces set in colored resin, then cut and polished. The result is a layered pattern that is different on every handle. It is a popular handle material for custom hunting knives because it looks distinctive and gives a smooth, comfortable grip.
About D2 Tool Steel
D2 is a high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel. It keeps its edge for a long time and resists wear, which makes it a great choice for a fixed blade hunting knife. Because it has less chromium than most stainless steels, dry the blade after use to avoid spots.
Care Instructions
- Wash with warm water and mild soap, then dry right away.
- Do not soak the handle or use a dishwasher.
- Do not store the knife in the included sheath for long periods.
- Condition the leather now and then.
- Avoid abrasive pads on the powder coat.
