Skeleton knives are called knives without handle scales that only have a blade and full tang .

The name comes from the fact that the knife is almost skeletonized without a handle. This makes skeleton knives much lighter, but without a handle they don't sit as well in the hand as conventional knives. Skeleton knives vary greatly in shape and other properties. They are available both as a folding knife and with a fixed blade.
