The Compact Skinning Powerhouse

SPECIAL COLLABORATION

The Compact Skinning Powerhouse

The Elkhorn Skinner, crafted in collaboration with renowned hunter Remi Warren, redefines the compact hunting knife. Born from Remi’s extensive field experience hunting many different species across numerous continents, and MKC’s world-class craftsmanship, this knife bridges the gap between ultralight and full-sized tools.

This short, stout blade packs all the capability of a full-sized skinner into a carry-anywhere package. Whether you’re field dressing a whitetail, breaking down a trophy mule deer, or quartering out an elk deep in the backcountry, the Elkhorn Skinner delivers unmatched performance in a surprisingly compact form.

COMPACT POWERHOUSE

Big performance in a small package that punches well above its weight class.

The Elkhorn Skinner’s 3.125″ blade is all business, delivering much larger knives’ cutting power and control. From whitetail to mule deer, antelope to sheep, this compact marvel handles it all with ease. It can even tackle larger game like elk or moose in skilled hands.

STONEWASHED MAGNACUT STAINLESS STEEL

Superior edge retention meets corrosion resistance for unparalleled field performance.

Crafted from premium MagnaCut stainless steel, the Elkhorn Skinner offers exceptional durability and toughness. This advanced steel ensures your blade stays sharp throughout long hunting seasons while resisting the corrosive effects of field use.

Learn more about MagnaCut stainless steel from its creator, Larrin Thomas.

ERGONOMIC G10 HANDLE

Full-sized comfort in a compact knife, designed for all-day use and precision control.

The Elkhorn Skinner features a smooth, milled G10 handle that fills your hand for optimal control. A deep finger choil locks your grip in place, while the enlarged guard ensures safety during demanding cuts. After hours of field dressing, you’ll appreciate the comfort and security this handle provides.

VERSATILE FIELD COMPANION

Primary blade or perfect pairing — your go-to knife for any hunting situation.

While it’s capable as a standalone hunting knife, the Elkhorn Skinner shines when paired with a caping knife like the MKC Mini-Speedgoat. Use the Elkhorn for primary skinning and butchering, then switch to your caping knife for delicate work. It’s the ultimate versatile combo for any hunt.

EXCLUSIVE MKC KYDEX SHEATH

Each Elkhorn comes with a custom, made in-house in Montana, MKC Kydex sheath.

Designed for secure retention and easy access, the sheath ensures your knife is always ready when you need it. The durable Kydex material protects your blade and maintains its edge, hunt after hunt. The Elkhorn sheath comes with a Kydex clip that allows you to carry your knife on a pack or belt loop, either horizontally or vertically.

Free Sharpening For Life & Beyond

Generations® is our promise to restore your knife to its original, unmatched working condition.

MKC will clean, sharpen, repair, and even reshape your blades when necessary, as well as rewrapping handles free of charge. While we perform all necessary sharpening and maintenance, our aim is not to return your knife to its brand new appearance.Learn more about MKC Generations Promise.

    Definitely a favorite

    Like all MKC knives, this knife is razor sharp out of the box feels really great in the hand. Really like the stone wash look and the size of the blade. Can’t wait to use it this hunting season.

    New Favorite Knife

    Finally picked up an Elkhorn Skinner the other day. It looked llike a great knife online but it's even better in the hand. I like the exaggerated contours of the grip. They're solid for choking up on the blade. I've got some mirror finished blades but this stone washed finish looks cool, too. Awesome size, nice belly on the blade. Another bad ass knife. Keep up the good work!

    This knife rocks!

    I final got to field test my Live Wild edition Elkhorn. Only fitting to do it on a Maui Axis deer. Very sharp, skins like a dream. I didn’t expect it to work as well as it does for opening small joints for how wide the blade is and not as fine a point. Still, no problem. I really like how the handle feels in my hand with different holds while breaking down an animal. I didn’t think I’d find any other knife I like as much as my MKC Triumph, but I think I have.

    Great blade for hunting

    I have wanted an Elkhorn from the first time I saw the design. When I saw the drop announced I made sure I got one. When it arrived I wasn't disappointed. It is a great size and weight. It feels great in the hand with good balance. The only knock on it is the sheath. I have one other MKC blade and it comes in and out of the sheath fine. This Elkhorn was so tight I had to loosen the screw to get it to release. Even with adjusting it still isn't great coming in and out of the sheath

    Might be the only knife you need for in the field

    The Elkhorn is a phenomenal knife. The first time I used it I had to intentionally slow down the field dressing process. The ergonomics are unrivaled. The size and shape leave nothing to be desired. I am grateful to be able to share memories and harvests with my kids. MKC has increased the joy of those events.
