The Muskrat: A Double-Edged Skinning Champion

It might have a funny name and an unusual shape, but the Muskrat is a powerhouse when it comes to precision skinning. Specifically designed for efficient and safe skinning and fleshing, this knife has earned the trust of professional outfitters, guides, hunters, and taxidermists alike.

Unmatched Skinning Efficiency

• Double-Edged Design: A razor-sharp edge wraps around the rounded tip and continues one inch along the top side, allowing for controlled cutting in both directions with a simple flick of the wrist.
• Safe for Valuable Capes: The rounded point reduces the risk of accidental punctures, making it ideal for preserving hides destined for tanning or mounting.

Built to Last

• D2 High Carbon Tool Steel: Tackles demanding skinning jobs with ease and holds its edge through repeated use.
• .080″ Thin Blade: Minimizes friction during cuts and simplifies sharpening.
• Suregrip Handle: A checkered, rubberized grip available in black or hunter orange ensures secure handling in all conditions.

Secure and Convenient Carry

• Oiled Leather Sheath: Provides reliable protection and easy access in the field.

The Muskrat is not your typical knife, but for those who prioritize safe, efficient skinning, it’s an invaluable tool trusted by professionals.   Sharpening Tip: Hold the blade steady over a table edge. Use small circular motions with your sharpener, following the angle of the bevel. To maintain consistency, mark the bevel with a marker—removing it evenly means you’re sharpening at the correct angle.
