Nice looking knife, Its a little too big for skinning coyotes.

Blade is 2 3/4".
I'm building one now with a custom small game skinning blade. About 2" long and only about 1/2" deep, drop point skinner style. Not made to be pretty, looks silly, actually... but it'll sure peel 'em!

Wow!
That's a beautiful knife!

That's as good a work as I have ever seen.
My A G Russell catalog came in the other day. Damascus skinner with Mastodon bone handle, $900.00. I don't think there will be one under my tree this year.
It does not impress me like you're work.

Hell, I'm not even a knife kinda guy, but that puppy has me drooling. Nice work!

$900, Wow! I gotta raise my prices! (About 4x!)
Antler is prettier, but more readily available. I have some Mammoth I'm going to use soon. Ugly, but kinda neat!
Thanks guys, for the nice comments. This one had some stress, but it was really fun to do overall.
