The Persian Skinner Knife Kit is a refined hidden tang DIY knife project designed for makers who want a traditional upswept skinner profile with excellent cutting control and strong customization potential. Built around a Persian-inspired blade geometry, this design delivers smooth slicing performance with a highly usable tip, making it ideal for skinning, field work, and general utility tasks.
Measuring 8.25 inches overall with a 3.75 inch blade, the Persian Skinner offers a balanced, compact platform that works well for both functional builds and display-quality custom knives. The hollow-ground blade is crafted from heat-treated 440A stainless steel, providing dependable edge performance and corrosion resistance, while the pre-attached 420 stainless steel guard adds strength and a clean visual transition into the handle. The hidden tang design includes (2) pre-drilled 5/32 inch mounting holes for secure construction and traditional handle assembly methods.
Choose from multiple premium handle configurations to match your build style and budget. Each combo kit includes the blade, guard, and stainless steel pinstock paired with a select hardwood handle block.
For makers who prefer full creative control, a blade-only configuration is also available. This version includes the blade, pre-attached guard, and stainless steel pinstock, allowing you to source and shape your own custom handle material such as antler, exotic hardwoods, or stabilized composites.
Whether you're building your first hidden tang knife or adding a refined Persian-style blade to your collection, the Persian Skinner Knife Kit provides a versatile, workshop-ready foundation for a one-of-a-kind custom knife.
