ABSTRACT:
A pliers-like head-gripping tool for immobilizing and holding fish for skinning or scaling, or animals for skinning, has a flat-faced mouth-insertable lower jaw and an upper jaw provided with a skull-penetrating sharp-tipped conical point depending from a flat surface roughly parallel to the (preferably serrated) flat face of the upper jaw during normal use. The handle members of the tool are dip-coated with a tough and preferably slightly resilient plastic material. The lower handle member is downwardly and forwardly curved to partly embrace the hand of the user as an aid to a pulling action. The tool parts are so shaped and proportioned that the sharp tip of the point will be protectedly slightly spaced from the lower jaw surface when the handle members touch. A clip-on centrally apertured disc adjusts the tool to smaller game by reducing the effective dimensions of the conical point and the jaw gap.
