[sorry i've been gone so long, had to go to work almost immediately after my classes let out]

Mateiu prodded the bear experimentally with his hand a few times, "I can skin it. Just gimmie a minute." he said before pulling up the skin at the base of the bear's neck and unsheathing his sword. The hunter ever so lightly pierced a small hole in the skin, then began to drag the blade down the bear's body, smirking with satisfaction as the blade's odd shape allowed him to slice through skin and meat just as easily as it allowed him to cleave through bone. Within a short period of time, the bear was sport a long vertical cut from its neck to it's tail, "All you have to do now is peel it off like a jacket." Mateiu explained before flicking the blood off of his blade and admiring his sword in the fire light. The sword itself was odd, its thick blade was curved in a manner similar to that of a sickle as opposed to most single edged swords, the gold accents along the tip and hilt of the sword glittered brightly in the firelight along with the silver portion that made up the actual cutting edge.
