Common Questions
What is an upswept blade used for?
The upswept or "trailing point" blade has a belly that curves upward, creating a long cutting edge. This is specifically designed for skinning game, as it allows for long, clean slices without puncturing the hide or meat.
Is the handle real deer antler?
This model typically features a "stag-style" or faux bone handle. This provides the classic look of antler but is often more durable and resistant to cracking or shrinking over time than natural material.
How do I sharpen a curved blade like this?
Because of the dramatic curve, it is best to use a sharpening rod or a guided system that can follow the belly of the blade, rather than a flat bench stone which might miss the recurve areas.
