Hand Knapped Obsidian Skinner and Dagger
During the time when a cutting tool was some form of stone, volcanic glass (obsidian) was the most prized of all the materials available. It enabled blades to be made that would cut better than any other material. Obsidian was so prized that men would travel hundreds of miles on foot to gather enough for a supply of tools. Landon Selby, the expert craftsman who has made our obsidian knives for years, uses the same materials and the same techniques to create all the models we offer.

Elk Horn Obsidian Skinner
Our maker joined us as a vendor while still in high school, and has continued to knapp beautiful obsidian knives through the years. His high beginning quality has improved every year. We have offered knives with white-tail crowns and with buffalo bone handles. This one is a skinner with Elk tines.
