Beautiful knives! I’d be afraid of losing one while field dressing an elk, deer or pronghorn in the snow here in Colorado! I’ve lost a knife before in the snow and dark!
 
I'll take that first one, the hunter skinner for $300.

But give me the weekend to see if I can come up with something more to order with it;)

Well, maybe Garry can make you one with a lanyard attachment point!
 
Sent you a PM on the acacia handled skinner Garry

AND fluorescent orange handle, like my Cutco skinning knife! I haven’t lost that one YET! Ha! Ha! Ha! But, the Acacia handled skinner would be hard to beat! It just looks designed so well for the tedious work of skinning.

Thanks Bob Will hold it for you.

I have blaze orrange micarta for handles (other colours as well as a number of liner colours) and can add a lanyard tube. The skinner is a design that has grown from dissatisfaction with available off the shelf (green river) skinners in the 60's and gradually updated over the years as experience bought improvments till I came to this as the best design some years back having a large number of animals as test subjects.
 
Maybe I should have waited so you can just send that Skinner with that knife I’m gonna win in the contest! :sneaky:

Cody has got dibs on that one Ray. It is maybe worth looking at a group buy on that knife with acacia handles if there was enough interest. I will float the idea on my main thread.
 
I’ll take the second one for 200
I have had a pm concerning that one but if there is no confirmation by this time tomorrow then your next in line. I will advise you in 24 hrs

Dr Ray,
Von Gruff’s knife designs are excellent from what I can see in the photos. I would like to hear from you and others here how they perform in the field? I’ve used my lesser quality knives field dressing and skinning deer, pronghorn and elk with mixed results. I don’t like buying anything (mostly) without somebody’s personal use and critique of the item. I’m just a cynical bastard! Thanks!

CEH,
Having probably spent at least one of my boys college tuition on knives, custom and not, you won’t go wrong with one of Garry’s blades! I used my buffalo skinner on an axis a couple months ago and could have done several more without touching the blade with a stone. Buy with confidence from this man!
Cheers,
Cody

Thank you! I’ve always had to sharpen my lesser quality knives while skinning. At least on an elk. After reading everything here on AH, now I’m wondering what it would be like field dressing a Cape Buffalo? Probably as much FUN as being charged by one! Ha! Ha! Ha! I’ve done ONE elk by myself. A real BITCH! Fun never stops! I will consider buying one of Von Gruff’s skinning knives! Thanks!
