Meyerco Blackie Collins Skinner
just got this in the post today meyerco blackie collins 4-3/4" skinner knife micarta scales it is very very shaving sharp out of the box, the sheath is crap that nylon stuff but i was going to make a new sheath but found this black leather sheath that is perfect for the knife it wont fall out of the sheath when shaken upside down i have cut some hardwood with the knife and when dull just stropt it and it was shaving sharp again, for a knife that is made in china the steel is very good this knife is great value for the money it cost.

That blade design is nice.  Actually it's more of a semi-skinner since the point drops enough where it can be used upside down to field dress an animal.  I, and others, make versions of it.
The same can't be said for the finger grooves.  I've never found them comfortable on a using blade where the hand is better off being able to shift around on the handle when cutting/skinning.
