Clean Cuts, No Compromise: A Pure Skinning Design

SPECIAL COLLABORATION

MKC x CAM HANES - PACKOUT SKINNER

Red and black handled skinner knife with textured grip displayed on a dark background beside a compound bow, emphasizing its rugged design and utility.

We teamed up with the legendary Cameron Hanes to create a knife that embodies his relentless spirit: The Packout. This isn't your everyday blade; it's a compact, purpose-built skinning knife designed to make the toughest jobs easier.

After countless hours of design and testing, we've created a knife that's as tough and determined as Cam himself. Built for backcountry hunters who demand the best, the Packout is ready to tackle any skinning challenge. It’s a knife that is a testament to Cam Hanes’s work ethic: “Nobody Cares. Work Harder.”

COMPACT CRESCENT DESIGN

The Packout Skinner boasts a unique, half-moon skinning blade that maximizes cutting efficiency in a minimal footprint.

This knife is all belly, providing 3.5 inches of cutting edge packed into a 3-inch blade. The sweeping curve allows for long, clean strokes, making quick work of skinning. Cam wanted a compact package that could make quick work of his favorite game including, Blacktailed-deer, Whitetail, Mule deer, Elk or bears - and the Packout delivers. 

The Packout Skinner excels at fleshing out hides in the field, where its rounded tip minimizes the risk of puncturing. This knife may be small, but it's a powerhouse of skinning efficiency.

MAGNACUT STAINLESS STEEL

Made from premium MagnaCut stainless steel, the Packout Skinners's blade offers exceptional toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance.

At 110 thousandths thick, our stonewashed MagnaCut steel hits the sweet spot between hardness and toughness. It holds an edge through multiple animals but won't chip or break when you're deep in the backcountry.

ERGONOMIC G10 HANDLE

The Packout Skinner's handle is crafted from milled G-10, providing a secure, comfortable grip even in wet or cold conditions.

This knife is designed to feel like a natural extension of your hand. The handle features a palm swell that fills your grip, giving you complete control. The way the handle ramps down in the front allows for your index finger to be placed along the top of the blade, or you can reverse grip and put your thumb on top where it falls into the half moon shape perfectly.

Even with its compact size, the Packout Skinner offers a full, ergonomic grip that minimizes hand fatigue. It's designed to fit comfortably in large hands and while wearing gloves, ensuring you can work efficiently for hours on end. We’ve also added Cam’s signature red and black layered handle to the color choices.

UNIQUELY DESIGNED FOR SKINNING

The Packout Skinner is a dedicated skinning knife, and that's where it shines.

With its unique blade shape and comfortable handle, the Packout excels at skinning game. While it may not be your primary blade, it's the perfect secondary knife for when you need to get the hide off quickly and efficiently. When paired with a larger blade like the Whitetail or the Super Cub, it becomes a complete system that can handle every step of processing.

EXCLUSIVE MKC KYDEX SHEATH

The Packout Skinner comes with a custom-molded Kydex sheath, designed for secure retention and easy access.

This sheath is built to withstand the beatings of the backcountry, keeping your knife protected and readily available. The retention screw allows you to customize the blade tension and allow for handle-down carry. The Packout Skinner 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.

Fits great in my hand!

The name of this knife is exactly what i wanted out of it.
& it is just that.
Perfect fit in the hand. The shape of the blade makes quick work of pulling a cape and complete hides off clean! Used on multiple whitetail so far since i got it later in the season. This next fall will definitely be in the elk pack!

Hi there! Thank you for your review. Wishing you a successful season!
