I picked this skinner hunter about 10 years ago or more in a trade and haven’t been able to identify it yet ? The only markings at all are JG 98 etched in the blade. I posted a video on YouTube about…Continue

JG98-Can anyone identify this skinner ?

I picked this skinner hunter about 10 years ago or more in a trade and haven’t been able to identify it yet ? The only markings at all are JG 98 etched in the blade. I posted a video on YouTube about it, and no one could identify it there either. So know I turn to the experts.

"Jeff, it may just have an association with kinfolk ? The best possible guess so far is a case casting sent to kinfolk ? Not an easy nut to crack identifying this one."

"Jan, unfortunately I’ve gone through all the charts I’ve been able to find and there are no numbers. I’ve been told it may be a case pattern shipped to kinfolk, but there’s really no information to go by though others like it…"
