The Damascus Skinner Knife by JW SteelCrafts is a handcrafted hunting blade built for clean hide work. It measures 9 inches overall with a curved skinner belly and a Damascus steel blade that shows a flowing, layered pattern. A mirror-polished blade finishes and a steel bolster add a premium look, while a hand-engraved leather sheath completes the package.
This piece suits hunters, outdoor users, and collectors who value real craftsmanship. Because each blade is hand-forged, the Damascus pattern is unique on every knife.
The skinner knife earned its place as a specialist hunting tool, shaped with a deep, curved belly that glides under a hide for long, clean sweeping cuts. Hunters and trappers refined the form over generations, valuing control over puncture risk during field dressing. The gut hook later joined many skinners to help open the hide quickly without nicking what lies beneath. Damascus steel, with its layered structure and strong edge, became a prized choice for these working blades. This handmade skinner carries that heritage forward, pairing a proven hunting shape with the beauty of folded steel and a hand-finished leather sheath.

Not bad so far
Size: Small, Color: Light Yellow
mixed feelings about the quality... only worn/washed once and there are some dangling threads which I had to cut off which might lead to further degradation of longevity etc. The fit is a bit snug between S and M, I chose small regarding the closest fit to my chest size but it's ok. The fabric is thin so if you are a guy that doesn't mind showing off your form and fitness this shirt is flattering. The fabric is texture, light and thin so there is comfort regarding the lightness of wearing it. One could go a size larger for looser fit and more comfort but I actually like the tighter fit.

Perfect summer shirt...
Size: 3X-Large, Color: White
I am one that ALWAYS look at the 1 star reviews first. When I brought this shirt I did not... I brought 4 more in different colors. I have now looked at the 1 star reviews and I have to disagree.. Most say they are too thin. When it's 90 - 100 degrees outside this shirt is PERFECT.. It is airy and relaxing. I found it to be also perfect in size. I came back to order more but they don't have a few colors I am looking for. This worked for me all the way around..

Flattering and classy
Size: Medium, Color: White
Thin but I love it that way. Is not overly wrinkled after ironing but wrinkles terribly when washed. Fits well not tight or too loose. Buy your exact size. The white is very classy.

Very Thin, low quality, runs small
Size: Medium, Color: Light Green
Way too thin. It's completely see-through, and the fit runs small. I forgot to return it and wound up giving it away to Goodwill.
