I love those Russel blades.  My buff skinner has been used on three elk and even a coyote and it's the most user friendly skinner I've ever had.

Yours handle is way prettier than mine.  Mine is made from a left over piece of maple lam riser wood.  Tough but not all that aesthetic.

Congratulations on a job well done.

Thanks.  I have another one onthe bench right now.  I just finished a knife for my son.  It's ebony with a cow horn bolster.  I'll try to post some pics tomorrow.
