Bump,

Any of the testers tried skinning with it?

LOL, ROTFLMAO... Remind me not to read the forum when drinking a soda...now I have to clean up a mess. But, it was worth it...

Thanks also to everyone who has been so supportive and the very positive support and kind words from you all in this thread. I'm getting ready to pack up and will be off to SHOT Show at zero-too-early tomorrow. Hopefully these will receive the same positive response from the buyers there.

Yes, but there were no photos, unfortunately. Just a couple squirrels is all. There's plenty of belly to it, which would be an asset. Wouldn't be my first choice for any substantial size game, but it will do in a pinch.

I can't make it, as usual, but a friend will be there, and he always brings me neat goodies. Maybe one of these this time...

I cleaned and skinned at least six deer with the original prototype. I completely butchered at least two of those. The original prototype, in fact, was designed with caping/skinning in mind. The index finger rests across the top of the blade adding a tactile feel to separating tissue without nicking flesh or skin. The lanyard knot goes between the ring and pinky finger to add a functional full handle effect. The thumb, in a number of cutting articulations, gains grip resting in one of the blade holes... Hope this helps.

Andy,

That's for your input. Forgot about that. Was focused on my own testers.

Thanks Andy.

Thought it looked like a good backup knife for that.
