Skinning knife
From ThresholdRPG Wiki
Skinning knife is one of four resource gathering tools, and is used to skin various critters for usable hides found in various ecosystems throughout Threshold. It can be strapped to an adventurer belt for easy carrying and use, and will remain strapped to your belt through resets and death, similar to an autoload item. The benefit of strapping your resource tool to your adventurer belt is that you can skin a node without having to unwield your current weapon and wield your resource tool.
To obtain a gathering tool, speak to Peeki in Sable or Foroni in Thrace for more information on each individual gathering skill, making your purchase, and being properly trained in how to use it.
