Abstract: A skinner tool especially effective for skinning catfish, but also effective for skinning other fish and animals, comprising: a pliers-like implement having a lower relatively flat jaw terminating in a relatively sharp front penetrating edge, and a curved upper jaw terminating in a blunt edge for gripping skin against the upper surface of the lower jaw adjacent its tip. The handle members are thickly dip-coated with a tough and preferably somewhat resilient plastic material and are shaped to provide more comfortable gripping. The lower handle member is curved to partly embrace the hand of the user as an aid to the pulling action. The gripping edge of the upper jaw may be flat, roughened or serrated.
