Light Hunter

The Light Hunter: A Powerful Choice for Remote and Extended Hunts
The Light Hunter Mini Skinner/Cleaver is a fixed-blade knife designed for hunters who require a powerful and versatile tool to handle game in the field.
Built to Tackle Big Jobs:
  • Thick D2 Tool Steel Blade (1/4″ thick): This robust blade, made from the same renowned D2 steel as the Knives of Alaska’s award-winning Brown Bear, easily chops through medium-sized bones and performs heavy-duty skinning tasks.
  • Large Capacity Gut Hook: This crucial feature addresses larger animals like elk and big northern whitetails, preventing hair from balling up during the field dressing process.
Lightweight Design for Backcountry Hunters:
  • Shorter Blade (3″ compared to 5.6” Brown Bear): While shorter than the Brown Bear, the Light Hunter’s blade remains effective for most big game processing tasks, while reducing overall weight.
  • Small Handle: This design element contributes to the knife’s lightweight profile, making it easier to carry on extended backcountry hunts.  Available in black or hunter orange Suregrip rubberized handle or in genuine elk stag.
  • Deep Index Finger Groove: This ergonomic feature enhances grip and control during use.
American-Made Quality:
  • Vegetable Tanned Leather Sheath: A high-quality sheath is included for secure storage.
Please note: Be aware of the possibility of a 30-60 day lead time when ordering this product. The Light Hunter Mini Skinner/Cleaver is a valuable tool for those who prioritize a lightweight knife without sacrificing heft and  cutting power for field dressing medium-sized big game animals.
