Skinning knife reccomendations

[jg556]

Im getting married soon and my brothers are my best man/groomsmen. We all just recently got into hunting and wanted to get them all a solid skinning knife as a present for it. Looking for reccomendations for something fairly high quality, but under $200ish. Bonus if its a leather sheath, but not required.

Benchmade Steep Country. I think it's a great bang for the buck. Gets very high praises.

Special occasion deserves a special knife. If it were me I would be looking to get custom made. there is a few guys on here that do great custom work. I looked for them but I lag, hopefully someone can link them up here. I would also get the recipients name or nick name engraved on the blade. If this won't work for you, check out BladeHQ they have tons of great skinners under $200 and they will do the engraving and it is very reasonable.

If you need help shopping holler, I like spending OPM

Congratulations!!!

I have two of the Steep Country’s by Benchmade, nice knives for the money.

My wife got me a bladesmithing class. Made a really high quality knife (I wanted a boning knife). Memory + tool = win

Alternatively, I really like my Canadian belly knives. Good pair with my havalon. I have an MKC Jackstone and it’s great, but my Grohmann is actually slightly preferred. https://grohmannknives.com/index.php/products/outdoor/1-original-design-182-detail
