Chevron Wood Handle Rasp Skinner with Zigzag Wood Handle

The Chevron Wood Handle Rasp Skinner wears a genuinely distinctive handle. Strips of light and dark wood alternate in a classic chevron pattern. Each angled strip meets the next in a clean, pointed zigzag. Cross-hatch texture covers the blade near the heel, carried over from the rasp. The edge past that section runs bright and fully polished.

This skinner carries a moderate belly shaped for real field work. You get real control from that curve during skinning and camp work. Chevron patterns come from cutting wood strips to meet at a precise point. That technique takes real skill and produces a genuinely striking result. No other handle in the shop uses this exact construction method.

A two-tone leather sheath ships with this knife, tooled in a basket-weave pattern. A leather lanyard already threads through the handle's butt end. This build earns real attention through pattern alone, blade aside.
