Wide Blade Skinner Knife Set High Carbon Steel Fixed Blade Knives

The hunter's tradition of carrying a matched axe and skinner knife together dates back centuries to the American frontier, where serious outdoorsmen recognized that different tools served different critical tasks in the field. The tracker axe delivered the heavy chopping power needed for wood processing, shelter building, and campsite preparation, while the skinner knife provided the precision needed for field dressing and skinning game cleanly and efficiently. Together, this matched combination became the definitive outdoor toolkit of every serious hunter and wilderness survivalist.

The art of handcrafted blade making elevated the tracker axe and skinner knife set to a new standard of artisan performance and visual beauty. Today, the JW SteelCrafts Tracker Axe Skinner Knife Set honors this proud outdoor tradition with two individually handcrafted blades featuring striking green pinecone and black micarta handles.

Product Care for JW SteelCrafts Hand-Forged Products

To ensure the longevity and beauty of your hand-forged JW SteelCrafts products, follow these essential care instructions:

1. Regular Cleaning
   Wipe your knives, swords, axes, and rings with a soft cloth to remove dust and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a non-abrasive cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasives that could damage the steel’s finish.
2. Dry Thoroughly
   After cleaning, ensure your product is completely dried. This helps prevent water spots, rust, or corrosion, particularly on blades and steel surfaces exposed to moisture.
3. Proper Storage
   Store your hand-forged products in a dry, cool place to prevent oxidation or rust. For long-term storage, consider applying a thin layer of oil (e.g., mineral oil or gun oil) to the metal surfaces, or using a rust inhibitor. When storing knives and swords, keep them in protective sheaths or pouches to prevent contact with other materials.
4. Avoid Impact
   While designed for strength and durability, avoid dropping or striking your steel products against hard surfaces. This can cause damage to the blade, edge, or overall integrity of the piece.
5. Edge Maintenance (For Knives & Swords)
   Periodically sharpen the blades to maintain their cutting edge. Use a proper sharpening stone or take your product to a professional for maintenance. Always sharpen in the correct direction to preserve the blade’s integrity.
6. Routine Inspection
   Regularly inspect your products for any signs of wear, rust, or damage. If you notice any issues, reach out to us for maintenance, restoration, or repair services.

By following these care instructions, your JW SteelCrafts products will retain their craftsmanship, functionality, and beauty for years to come.
