Knives of Alaska...great blades!

I’m looking for a skinning knife with a leather sheath. Anyone recommend anything that’s under 100.00?

Skinning Knife on a budget

I’m a taxidermist and these are the only knives I use. ALL of my skinning, fleshing, detail work, etc is done with these cold steel paring knives. LOVE them!!! Make a cheap sheath from kydex or just order one of those simple leather sheaths the whole knife will go in.

Not sure if you can find a Benchmade in that price range, but their quality is good and they use good steel.

Won't win beauty contests but butchers anything super quick, Havalon is a **** scalpel. Plus both are cheap, and when they lose their edge just pitch the blade.

Been killing deer since 1968 and more than 3/4 have been gutted, skinned and cleaned with an old Case 2 blade Trapper. Sure hurt to lose that old knife since it was made from 1095 carbon steel and would hold an edge thru several deer cleanings and re sharpen with just a few licks on an arkansas stone .
I make a few knives now in my retirement but nothing was ever any better than that old trapper knife. One of these days I will run across another one of those original Trappers NIB.

you can still find the original sharp knives on ebay. My favorite skinning knife.

Man, I know you asked for a skinning knife, and Lord knows I have about 5 or 6 good ones, but since I got my Outdoor Edge 3.0 Razor Lite EDC, I haven't touched another knife. It's in my pocket every where I go and will skin a deer as good if not better than any knife I have ever put in my hand.

Triple Edge archery in Dayton has some nice ones made out of files in that price range.

Bokker makes a great blade. I have several myself.
They are made in Solingen, Germany, an area which has a long history of producing quality knife blades. At this price point -you can't go wrong.

That knife isn’t made in Germany it is made in Argentina decent knife but not the same as the German knives

My go to knife is an old timer trapper folding pocket knife. But I have an assortment of others I just bought a little Buck fixed blade that's seems real nice for like $24 @ academy.

True, they are a good knife. No longer made in Germany. Bought one a couple months back, made in China, yep, I was disappointed.. The steel is still Solingen steel...I think. Holds a good edge, easy to sharpen. Mine cost $85.

They've gone up but are still reasonable, I have 3 or 4 of these and they're great:

This is a smoking deal on a nice knife...

That is for sure a heck of a deal!

My dad makes skinning/kitchen knives and is within your price range sir. He is retired and does it as a side hustle. Glenn 281330274seven
