The Muskrat pattern pocket knife was originally designed to skin small fur bearing animals including the muskrat.  Today it is a favorite among collectors of vintage pocket knives.  This two-bladed knife typically features a serpentine (curved) or equal end frame with two identical slender clip point blades on each end.
