Jim Baker was a legend among mountain men. Friends with the like of Kit Carson and Jim Bridger, Baker was said to be brave and loyal to a fault. Baker also led a life of adventure. From battling with Native American Indians, to scouting for a railroad survey party in Salt Lake, to rescuing the daughter of a Shoshone chief. Jim Baker’s stories and adventures go on and on. This is the reason we have named this handmade Damascus steel skinner after him.

Don’t let the compact form of this knife fool you, this is definitely a man's man knife. The flat belly and skinner tip make this knife very easy to control and the large handle gives you plenty of leverage.

We like to think that Jim Baker would be very pleased to have this knife named after him and would have loved to have this knife accompany him through his many adventures. We also have a more compact skinner called the Colter with a Walnut Handle if the natural wood look appeals to you.

Disappointed

Not so much disappointed with the product as with Forseti Steel customer service. I inquired about the angle of the blade angle sharpening as I am quite a picky and believe in keeping my knives razor sharp for skinning my harvest. I have yet to hear back from your company with the tech specs. So please respond with the much needed information. Please understand I’m not angry, I’d just like to be ready to put my new equipment to work on my upcoming hunting trip. Can’t do it until the knife is sharper and well honed and stroped properly.
Thank you for your much awaited response.

WOW! What a Knife

I've had various knives and have never been obsessed with one like this... The craftmanship on this piece is impeccable; the balance is perfect, the finish feels great, and the blade is sharper than ever. I originally got this knife for hunting, but I was honestly amazed at how well put together the knife is that I practically carry it everywhere. I don't think this one can be compared to anything else. If you're contemplating if it's worth it, I say get it!

Why Forseti Steel?

Each Knife is Unique

All of our knives are made by hand and crafted one at a time. That is why no two knives are the same. The knife you receive will be similar to what you see on our site, but will be unique based on the natural materials used and individual craftsman that built the knife. 

Testimonials

Beautiful, true Damascus steel knives. They set the table with elegance and class.

Love this knife! Compact design, nice grip, feels comfortable in your hand--very sharp blade! As a side for the ladies--it fits in the smallest of bags. You won't be disappointed if you buy it!
