This is a high-quality Mac skinner made by Tak Fukuta in Seki, Japan, for Mac. It features a hardwood handle and a sharp AUS-8A stainless steel blade. Tak Fukuta was the first Japanese member of the American Knifemakers’ Guild and an apprentice of Bob Loveless. He handcrafted high-quality knives that even impressed his mentor. Over the years, his factory in Seki, Japan, produced knives for Parker, Valor, Gutmann, Explorer, Frost, and Browning, among others. After his death, several old stock models and semi-finished pieces for their production were found in his warehouse. This knife is one of these rare finds.
