Skinning Knife

The Skinning Knife in Rust is a specialized tool tailored for efficiently harvesting meat and animal parts from wildlife. Its sharp blade is designed to maximize yield from carcasses with precision. When used, players can gather more resources in less time compared to other tools, making it a must-have for hunters and survivors looking to sustain themselves or craft items that require animal by-products. It is particularly adept at procuring unique trophies that can be displayed on Hunting Trophies, adding a personal touch to a player's base or shelter.

For the most effective use, target the carcass immediately after an animal has been killed. The Skinning Knife not only excels in obtaining larger quantities of meat but is also the prime choice for collecting animal fat, cloth, leather, and even skulls for trophy mounting. Its lightweight nature allows for quick, repeated use without significant stamina depletion. Utilize the Skinning Knife to turn every hunt into a bountiful harvest, ensuring you have ample supplies for nutrition, trade, or crafting advanced items that can further enhance your survival capabilities in the harsh environment of Rust.
