A skinner gut hook knife, as the name suggests, incorporates a gut hook blade in addition to the skinner blade. The gut hook is a small, curved, and sharpened notch or hook on the spine of the blade near the tip. This specialized feature is designed specifically for field dressing and processing game animals by easily and safely opening the abdomen without puncturing internal organs.

The gut hook allows the user to make a precise incision through the hide and underlying tissues without the risk of damaging the internal organs or intestines. By inserting the hook and gently pulling it along the abdomen, the user can cut the skin open cleanly while avoiding unwanted punctures.

The skinner blade on a skinner gut hook knife retains the same characteristics as mentioned earlier, a curved, sweeping edge that tapers to a point, facilitating efficient skinning and field dressing. The gut hook is an additional feature that provides the ability to open the abdomen with precision.
