The Muskrat

This unusually shaped knife is unbelievably effective for skinning and fleshing. The razor sharp edge extends completely along the rounded tip and top side for 1". This allows the user to skin very quickly with the knife by cutting in both directions with a quick flick of the wrist. The rounded point is also much less likely to accidentally cut through the skin of a valuable cape than is a very sharp pointed blade. This is especially important for a professional outfitter, a guide, or a hunter who wants to keep the skin or cape for tanning or mounting.
