Paul’s ProSkinner

Lucas Forge Posted on October 29, 2021 by Lucas ForgeOctober 21, 2021

We wanted to share this moving piece from Paul about his new knife. Thank you so much for the kind words and letting Lucas Forge be a part of your outdoor life.

Hello, Lucas, just wanted to tell you about my experience with the Pro Skinner, mine built with Osage and aged blade just received a few weeks ago. I used it to skin out a woodcock this morning. As a Woodcock and Grouse hunter I will do full caping of each bird for my fly tying inventory. The Pro Skinner is perfect and fits beautifully for this delicate work. The thin blade and keen edge that you put onto it is wonderful. For me aesthetics is an important part of not just this little knife but the whole picture of my days afield from hunting these beautiful birds in the Fall to casting my soft hackles that they provide me during trout seasons. Nothing is more satisfying in late Winter than pulling out a bird that I hunted, selecting a feather and winding it around a hook. It does wonders anticipating the next season. And your work is a part of it all.
