If you're looking for a skill bump then get a +skinning glove enchant. Otherwise, there are no weapons that are usable for skinning. In japanese, I believe the term is called tameshigiri - using a sword to cut something (non-combat) which is considered disrespectful to the sword, the blacksmith and a disgraceful act for a samurai. Otherwise, yes, I too would appreciate a skinning knife that could also double as a dagger/weapon.
