SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Battle Horse Knives Crooked Creek delivers precision, control, and dependable performance in a streamlined skinner built for real field use. Its 3.12" upswept skinner blade is forged from O1 tool steel, giving you a fine, durable edge capable of clean work through hide, tissue, and tight angles. The satin finish adds resilience and reduces glare, while the full-tang design ensures the knife stays solid under pressure. This blade shape excels at skinning thanks to its natural slicing arc, allowing you to guide each cut with accuracy rather than force.
At 7.12" overall and weighing only 1.6 oz, the Crooked Creek is remarkably lightweight and easy to carry, whether riding on your belt or tucked into a pack. The Natural Micarta handle brings rugged texture and reliability to the forefront. It stays grippy in wet, cold, or unpredictable conditions, giving you stability when precision matters most. Its ergonomic shaping keeps hand fatigue to a minimum during longer jobs, and the integrated lanyard hole offers additional carry or retention options.
A brown leather sheath with a belt loop rounds out the knife, providing durable protection and quick access when it’s time to work. Proudly made in the USA, the Crooked Creek is built for hunters, trappers, and outdoorsmen who expect a knife that performs consistently without unnecessary weight or bulk. Its profile, grind, and blade geometry make it an ideal companion for processing game or handling detailed field chores.
