Hey fellas. Thought I’d post up a really nice skinning knife I had made up by Clint Chisan, a Canadian maker. His knives have really nice grinds and craftsmanship. This is his skinner model, 3.5” cutting edge. I had him make it from .094” Magnacut @ 64 rc, and with a full flat grind. I really liked Hank Hammond’s Canadian Skinner, as well as Charlie May’s Buk 95, so when I saw this design of Clint’s it was a pretty easy decision. The blade profile is super duper close to both of them, and exactly what I was wanting. I could not be happier. Commissioned him to make me a second knife right away.

I like that!

Thin and sharp.

Been reading that with the Magnacut , 63-64 is the sweet spot for hardness.

That's a sweetheart of a knife.

Is that a standard pattern for him or your specs?

Thanks.

Hi Frank. No, that is a standard pattern of his. He calls it his Skinner. He also has a 3.5” Semi Skinner, and a 4” Drop Hunter. It really is a lovely knife, but so are the other two models I reference. You can see em all on his instagram account. He is just a short drive north of Montana. The exchange rate on our dollar is sooooo bad against yours that it makes it punitive to buy on you fine folks’ side of the border, so I thought I’d give him a try as I know many guys who loves his knives. Happy like hell I did.

Grats dude that looks really nice. Look forward to hearing about you getting it bloody.

Also did you reorder the same knife or did you change a variable?

Thanks. I really like that knife. I’ve seen him mentioned on other forums and will contact him. Enjoy your new knife, it’s a beauty.

That is a nice pattern. I have not tried Magnacut as of yet, but would like to, but I'm not a steel snob.
