THey are shaped similar to the small skinning knives I have seen. what do you guys think?
Never skinned a hood.
They squirm a lot and won't shut up about you not messing up their gold "teef".
LOL that is hilarious, it is fixed now.
I figure skinning is more about the you than your tools. I watched a guy skin a deer with a sharpened cleaver before, but if the shape of the blade makes it easier for you then that's fantastic.
I would think the angle of the blade might make it easier for slitting the skin with less risk of puncturing anything you wouldn't want to.

I'm sure it would be fine!

I got one of those. Its a little big for skinning to me but it came with one heck of a edge on it. Me likey.
The TDI has a very thick blade. While the angle would work well, the blad is not suited to the job.
+1. iv'e been using my USMC Ka-Bar since i was 10. a bit overkill sometimes, but it always gets the job done
The problem with the TDI is the thickness of the blade, and the associated angle of the edge. It is very, very acute, forming a strong, but not overly sharp cutting edge.
