Small 7989 Skinner Patch Knife with Leather Sheath

The Small 7989 Skinner Patch Knife with Leather Sheath is a compact Rite Edge fixed blade, a drop point stainless blade with full tang construction, set in a brown wood handle and shipped with a leather sheath.

Full tang construction runs the steel the entire length of the handle, which keeps the knife sturdy through repeated use rather than working loose at the joint. The drop point shape gives the tip extra strength for controlled work while the rest of the edge handles broader cutting tasks. Brown wood rounds out the handle with a classic, rustic look that a synthetic grip can't quite match.

Rite Edge built this piece for buyers who want a compact, budget-friendly fixed blade for everyday carry or backup use. Explore more Hunting Knives. Explore more fixed blade knives.

Its smaller size makes it easy to carry every day without feeling like extra bulk, which is part of why buyers keep coming back to this model as a backup blade. A knife this size also makes sense as a first fixed blade for someone new to field work, since it's forgiving to handle and doesn't demand much practice to control. Between the drop point tip and the compact overall size, this knife handles a wide range of small tasks without feeling like it was built for only one specific job.
