The Damascus Skinner Knife by JW SteelCrafts is a handcrafted hunting blade built for clean hide work. It measures 9 inches overall with a curved skinner belly and a Damascus steel blade that shows a flowing, layered pattern. A mirror-polished blade finishes and a steel bolster add a premium look, while a hand-engraved leather sheath completes the package.
This piece suits hunters, outdoor users, and collectors who value real craftsmanship. Because each blade is hand-forged, the Damascus pattern is unique on every knife.
The skinner knife earned its place as a specialist hunting tool, shaped with a deep, curved belly that glides under a hide for long, clean sweeping cuts. Hunters and trappers refined the form over generations, valuing control over puncture risk during field dressing. The gut hook later joined many skinners to help open the hide quickly without nicking what lies beneath. Damascus steel, with its layered structure and strong edge, became a prized choice for these working blades. This handmade skinner carries that heritage forward, pairing a proven hunting shape with the beauty of folded steel and a hand-finished leather sheath.

Cute? Yes! Durable? Not so much…
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Color: Green Gecko, Size: Large (Pack of 1), Color: Green Gecko
Upon opening this toy I was hopeful that it would last my dog (medium size beagle mix) quite a while. While he enjoyed it, he was able to start ripping it up less than 24 hours after getting it. Now 10 days later, he’s completely destroyed it. He was able to rip open all layers of material, pull them apart, and tear all the squeakers out. While the squeakers are large, they could be a choking hazard for a large dog. Based on the advertised “durability” of this toy and how little time it lasted my dog, I would not purchase it again.

We've been playing with this lizard for a month now and the fabric has been ripped off within first few days but my dog hasn't got to the squeakers yet.

Cute, soft, quiet and durable
This stuffy is HUGE! I was expecting it to be half this size. We're happy to have a stuffy that does *NOT* have a squeaker. We're finding it to be very sturdy. My 4 month old puppy is a terrier mix and she loves to attack and shake stuffies and you can't tell this thing has been abused at all. Looks the same a 2 weeks later as it did new. It's one of her favorites and we love it because its quiet. Should last a long time.
This is an update 4 months after purchase. The red squirrel continues to be a favorite with my puppy. With other plush toys, she tears them apart in 10 minutes. This one, somehow, has lasted months. Over time, she has pulled off the tail, the ears, and two of the legs, but the body is still intact. Amazing!

My dog freakin’ LOVES this
Favorite toy of my dog. He’s a heavy chewer - and yes, he’s chewed the tail off and one of the ears - but he carries it around all the time - plays with it all the time - even sleeps with it. And it has held up for months. I’m getting another one just to have as a backup as I don’t think he can live without it. Also love that the eyes are embroidered and not plastic so he won’t accidentally swallow them. Best toy ever.
