Skencil Drawing (SK) is the native document format of Skencil, a vector graphics editor for Unix and Linux that was originally released under the name Sketch. An SK file stores drawings as text-based descriptions of curves, shapes, gradients, and text objects, so the artwork remains fully scalable and editable. The project is no longer actively developed and was succeeded by sK1, which uses the .sk1 extension.
Because SK is application-specific, the usual route for anyone without Skencil or sK1 is to convert the drawing to a widely supported vector format such as SVG, PDF, or EPS. UniConvertor, the sK1 Project’s command-line converter, performs that step.
Once converted, the drawing opens in Inkscape, Adobe Illustrator, or LibreOffice Draw. The sK1 illustration program also imports legacy SK documents directly. Be aware that .sk is reused by unrelated software, so a file that will not open may not be a Skencil drawing at all.

Windows Metafile Format (WMF) is a Microsoft Windows (Windows) file type that can store vector and bitmap images. Microsoft designed WMF to share graphics data between Microsoft applications. WMF is the 16-bit precursor to the 32-bit Enhanced Windows Metafile (EMF).
WMF opens readily on Windows on compatible image programs, such as CorelDraw Graphics Suite. Another popular program that can open WMF on both Windows and macOS is Adobe Illustrator.
An alternative viewer to try is XnView MP, which is cross-platform and free. Programs that can open WMF on Windows include PhotoFiltre Studio, Ability Photopaint, and Ultimate Paint. On macOS, a good alternative is WMF Converter Pro.
