I like the little ones too, skinned, stuffed, wrapped in cabbage leaves and roasted! If I were better at getting the babies away from their moms, I could really use a good baby skinner.

snag,
I must have lucked out with the timing of my order and his last batch!
what scales did you get?  you'll have to share pics.  
i'm saving up to get one of his new damascus medium sized bull-nosed skinning knives.  cool!
