PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Pinecone Trailing-Point Hunting Skinner puts a trailing-point blade and a one-of-a-kind resin handle into a compact 6.5-inch field knife. Wave Damascus runs through the blade in flowing, contrast-etched lines. The spine curves upward toward the tip rather than dropping like a standard skinner. That upward sweep gives the trailing point profile more surface area along the cutting edge, which suits long skinning strokes better than most blade shapes.
The handle is built from red pinecone resin, where each embedded pinecone cross-section creates a dark, branching pattern through the red material. No two handles carry the same grain arrangement. A steel bolster caps the blade end, adding front weight and protecting the wood-to-steel junction. A single brass pin secures the handle to the full tang blade beneath.
The knife comes with a brown tooled leather sheath built for belt carry.
Pinecone Trailing-Point Hunting Skinner at JW Steel Crafts with a red pinecone resin handle, steel bolster, and wave Damascus trailing-point blade.
The History Behind This Blade
Trailing point skinners were developed for hunters who needed maximum edge length during field dressing. Wave Damascus forging dates back centuries and is valued for its strength and layered pattern. Pinecone resin handles bring a natural, organic texture that no two pieces share. JW Steel Crafts forges this blade by hand, keeping the trailing point geometry intact for real field performance.
Blade Performance
Wave Damascus holds a sharp edge through repeated skinning and outdoor use. The trailing point profile delivers more cutting surface along the belly than a drop point shape. Full tang construction keeps the knife balanced and controlled during close field work. The steel bolster adds front weight that makes sweeping cuts feel natural and steady. High-carbon steel benefits from a light oil after each use to stay rust-free.
Handle Construction
Red pinecone resin covers the handle in a warm, deep tone with dark natural branching through the grain. Each embedded pinecone creates a unique cross-section pattern that shifts from piece to piece. A steel bolster separates the resin from the blade, protecting the junction under repeated use. A single brass pin locks the handle firmly to the full tang blade beneath. The resin material resists moisture better than untreated wood, making it practical for field conditions.
Best Used For
This knife is built for hunters who skin and field dress game regularly. The trailing point edge handles long, clean strokes better than most compact blade shapes. Collectors are drawn to the red pinecone resin and wave Damascus pairing — a combination that reads as much as display art as a hunting tool. Few fixed blades at this size carry this level of handle detail and blade variety together. As a gift, it suits hunters, outdoorsmen, and Damascus knife collectors equally well.

Let customers speak for us
I'm very pleased with this tent after having it for two years I've been in the rain I've been in the snow and it's held up pretty good but the cover that covers it did not hold up that good but the tent is perfect
Really enjoy the awning. Easy setup and got a little rain on the first trip. Easy to adjust for the run off. Very happy with the purchase!
I am one of the earliest customers Astrodome, I bought it and didn’t set it up for almost a year. By the time we set it up, we were blown away by the beauty of this space we purchased it on a mountain ledge in our glamping retreat in Lake County California two hours north of San as much as I love this space there are definitely some challenges with it in our location. It might work better than other locations, but we have had problems with the stakes, slipping and collapsing in the ground beneath and with the prevailing winds, it did stay up and it stays dry, even in tornadoes, but because the wind hits it from One Direction coming from the coast, this is definitely been a challenge for us we are going to try adding some weight inside it. The guests absolutely love this space keep in mind that with those skylights it’s going to get hot in the summertime but what’s nice is in the winter. It heats up almost passive solar. it’s also wonderful with a woodstove. A very cost effective alternative to a geodesic dome! If you want to experience it stay in ours, on Hipcamp.
I bought one of these at Scheels and absolutely love it. Great design, has everything you would ever need in a first aid/trauma/survival kit. Have one in all of my vehicles now. These guys truly thought of everything
A complete coverage of possibilities for my project and needs.
I love my new tent stove. Costumer service was also attentive and great to work with. Thank you.
The mounts work perfect with the truck bed rack I have on. Thank you for the excellent line of communication. You guys never kept me in the dark. I will ordering from you guys again.
I was wondering if you are able to sell just two extra mounts or do they just come in a set of six.
The color was even better in person. For well, looks well made and was easy to fold up and put into the carrying case. There was a bunch of colored plastic pieces from manufacturing on the mat, but I was able to vacuum it right up so be careful pulling it out.
Although it took a little extra time the delay very of my OVS Truck Topper was great. Good price too!
Fully engaged with customer, helped me get the crossbar I needed on time!
Product worked out great for my rack setup.
Order was delayed due to manufacturer delays, but my questions were answered and expectations on timing reset along the way. Cross bars were in perfect condition and work great!
I was in the market for a 3/4 length roof rack for my 4Runner as I wanted an upgrade from the OEM rails but still wanted to retain a somewhat OEM look. I am very happy that I went with the Sherpa Needle. It is a high quality rack with the best install method out of all the racks I looked at. I like that it is designed so you don’t have to deal with a mess of silicone when mounting. It is also nice that the fairing sits just above the roof instead of resting on it so that the paint does not get scratched. I was worried about wind noise because of this but I am happy to say there is no added wind noise at all.
I am also glad I purchased this rack through Live More Outside. I shopped around and they had the best pricing considering I was able to get a discount code, shipping was free, and they don’t charge sales tax. Shipping was prompt and I received the rack sooner than I thought I would.
Overall I am very pleased with this purchase and I will definitely come back to Live More Outside as I continue to build my rig.
By far one of the best customer service! Nathan has been a huge help on any questions and quick to respond! Live more outside is top notch. We are getting ready to hit our first outing with our new RTT. Cant wait to test it out. We also just purchased a 270 awning. I found one on another website but wanted to keep my business with live more outside. Nathan price matched and beat their price! We will continue to keep our business with this company!
