Hand forged CUSTOM CARBON BLADE Gut Hook SKINNER knife with rosewood handle and brass pins

Quiet confidence

A compact skinner with a sure rosewood grip and a hooked spine that means business—then disappears into a dark stitched sheath.

Field notes

Made for the clean, certain cut

Hand-forged intent

Long days in the field ask for a blade that feels natural the moment it’s picked up. The Titan TC-017 answers with a 4-inch edge of 1080 carbon steel and a gut hook shaped to work cleanly. The rosewood handle sits comfortably in the palm, anchored with brass pins for a steady hold. Compact at 8 inches overall, it’s easy to keep close without extra bulk.

What you notice first

The Gut Hook Skinner isn’t ornamental—it’s purposeful. When the job starts, you want a dependable edge with real retention and heat-treated strength. The balance from blade to handle keeps motion controlled and fluent. It’s a tool you reach for without thinking, and one you trust to finish what it starts.

For those who carry with care

Hunters and outdoorspeople who value a sharp, manageable fixed blade with a dedicated gut hook and a warm, solid grip.

In practice

Keep it in the sheath on your belt or pack and use the hooked spine to open game cleanly, then switch to the primary edge for precise skinning.
