The Carcajou can be used with confidence in slippery skinning and cleaning action, such as cleaning fish and birds, caping, and other precision tasks. The friction grooves near the blade tip allow use of a "pencil grip" for delicate caping around ears, antlers, nose and lips. Russ Kommer finds it to be the fastest way to remove the blood groove from salmon: just make a fast slit on either side of the blood groove and use one stroke of the pommel ring to scrape it away as you would with a spoon.
The little finger ring also allows you to let either knife drop and swing from your finger while you use your hands, and then with a wrist flip, bring the knife back up into your hand, so it never falls in the dirt or the creek.
Construction features include a full tang AUS-4 stainless steel blade in bright satin finish with a Razor-Sharp cutting edge, sandwiched between contoured and textured Zytel® scales attached with premium Torx® fasteners. They are almost indestructible, solvent resistant, and even removable for cleaning. Lightening holes minimize weight. To aid grip and tactile awareness, there are ample friction grooves on both knives.
