S35VN steel and approx. .100" thick stock. Thanks Tim PS: I believe that colodog talked me out of that one. It was a first off that I was playing with before making it a permanent pattern.

OK here are the latest two from Tim The one you inquired about Tim calls the "Lite Semi Skinner" I am very impressed with it, to put it mildly, and expect it to get quite a bit of use in the future. The second Tim calls the "Snub Nose"knife. I have not used it yet. Best, GWB A Kill Artist. When I draw, I draw blood.

I have not yet had a chance to field test the Lite Semi Skinner but I figure it to do multiple jobs very well.
