Cobratec Knives Sd2Dnsblkgen2 Skinner Gen Ii 3.50" Folding Plain Stonewashe
The Cobratec Knives Skinner Gen II is a compact folding knife built for hunters, field dressers, and anyone who needs a reliable blade in the backcountry. With a 3.50" plain stonewashed D2 steel blade and a closed length of 4.31", it strikes the balance between cutting power and packability—light enough to carry daily, tough enough to handle game processing and camp work without fussing.
D2 steel holds an edge well and resists corrosion, making it a solid choice for outdoor use where you can't babysit your knife. The stonewashed finish hides wear and scratches, so your blade looks right at home in the field rather than like a mall-counter showpiece. The blade itself is plain-edged (no serrations), giving you clean, controlled cuts whether you're working hide or rope.
The handle combines black G10 scales with a finger ring, giving you secure purchase even in wet or messy conditions. G10 is tough, lightweight, and won't slip when your hands are damp or gloved. That finger ring is small but purposeful—it keeps the knife from wandering out of your grip during detail work and adds a touch of tactical intent to an otherwise straightforward design.
This is a working blade, not a status piece. If you hunt, camp, or spend enough time outdoors to need a sharp steel companion that won't let you down, the Skinner Gen II delivers without unnecessary frills.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Cobratec Skinner Gen II good for game processing?
Yes. The 3.50" plain blade and stonewashed D2 steel are well-suited to field dressing and butchering work. The compact size gives you precision control, and D2 steel holds an edge through the tougher parts of the job.
What's the finger ring for?
The finger ring provides extra security and control during fine, detail-oriented cuts. It helps prevent the knife from rolling or slipping out of your hand, especially useful when working with wet or gloved hands in the field.
Will the stonewashed finish rust?
D2 steel is relatively corrosion-resistant for a carbon steel, though not stainless. The stonewashed finish helps mask surface marks and minor oxidation. Rinse and dry your blade after use in wet conditions to maintain it.
Is this knife suitable for everyday carry?
At 4.31" closed, the Skinner Gen II is compact and discreet enough for EDC if your local laws permit it. It's equally at home clipped to a hunting pack or sitting in a tackle box for camp duty.
