Measuring approximately \u003cstrong\u003e7.5 inches overall\u003c\/strong\u003e, this handmade fixed-blade knife is designed for hunting, skinning, field dressing, ranch work, and general outdoor utility. Its polished D2 steel blade, blue epoxy resin handle, distinctive cowboy artwork, and tooled leather sheath create a practical knife with a memorable ranch-inspired appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe approximately \u003cstrong\u003e3.5-inch D2 steel blade\u003c\/strong\u003e features a compact drop-point profile with a gently curved cutting edge. Its broad belly provides useful edge contact for skinning, while the defined point supports controlled cuts during field-dressing work. A satin-style finish gives the blade a clean appearance. The circular cutout design depicts a cowboy beneath a cross, adding a distinctive Western and faith-inspired detail without overwhelming the functional shape of the blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe approximately 4-inch handle features blue epoxy resin with lighter swirls and darker sections that resemble a night sky or mountain ridgeline. Slight variations within the resin create visual depth and give every handmade handle an individual appearance. Two brass-colored pins secure the handle material, while a lined lanyard hole at the pommel allows the attachment of an optional wrist cord or hanging loop. Its curved profile and finger recess near the blade help establish a natural hand position during careful cutting tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA handcrafted \u003cstrong\u003ecross-draw leather belt sheath\u003c\/strong\u003e is included. The sheath combines black leather borders with a warm brown center panel, dark stitching, and detailed Highland cow artwork. Multiple belt slots allow it to be threaded for convenient horizontal or angled cross-draw-style carry, depending on the wearer’s preferred setup. The broad pancake construction is designed to hold the knife close against the belt. Natural leather grain, tooling depth, and color can vary slightly and will develop additional character over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Blue Ridgeline is a strong choice for hunters who prefer a manageable fixed blade for close, precise field work. It also makes an attractive gift for ranchers, outdoorsmen, and collectors of handmade Western knives.

Apply a thin coating of suitable knife oil before storage. Although D2 steel offers practical corrosion resistance, it is not completely rustproof. Keep the leather sheath clean and dry, condition it occasionally, and avoid storing a damp or unclean blade inside it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eProduct Name\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBlue Ridgeline Cowboy Skinning Knife\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eHandmade fixed-blade skinning knife\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eApproximately 7.5 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eApproximately 3.5 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eHandle Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eApproximately 4 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eD2 steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBlade Profile\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCompact drop-point skinning profile\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBlade Detail\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCowboy and cross cutout artwork\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eHandle Material\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBlue epoxy resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eHandle Features\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBrass-colored pins and lined lanyard hole\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eSheath Material\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLeather\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eSheath Style\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eTooled pancake cross-draw belt sheath\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eSheath Artwork\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWestern Highland cow design\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eRecommended Uses\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eHunting, skinning, field dressing, ranch work, and outdoor utility\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSHAM Knives\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the dimensions of the Blue Ridgeline knife?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt measures approximately 7.5 inches overall and has an approximately 3.5-inch D2 steel blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the cross-draw leather sheath included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
