No knife design will come to my mind that looks more like a tool than a Finnish puukko with a barrel shaped handle.
While the rudimentary basics of the blade form is in shape and size comparably easy to make,
....but the effort of eye balling in that handle form is enormous...at least for me.o_O
If I forget a moment to stay true to the crosshairs, I can easily loose my touch to the form.
...and after all, a traditional back stiched sheath can make me find myself or loose myself....
That kind of knife sheath is definitely a different science for itself.

...as they come in Tungsteen tool steel, copper, bone and horn.
the blades have ridged backs and riged ricasso choils
With true ferrules and the tangs riveted over their butts.

cheers:)

I think you nailed the form. The 2nd one in particular has captured an elegance that belies the working roots of its inspirations.That's a gorgeous puukko. 1st one is pretty sweet too :cool: as is your leather work.

Blade lengths? Very nicely done :thumbsup:

John A. Larsen, RayseM, Hengelo77, thank You very much for the nice comments!
....and thank You guys for the likes:)
RayseM:
The measurements are very standard as they should stay in a Tommi-Puukko range.
Blade length is 95 mm +/_1, handles about 120-125 mm and the thickness of the blades
are 3,8 mm.
 
T Templehound - hoping you would email to say the 2nd one is for sale. Trying to be discreet but :rolleyes:
Email HERE if you would care to discuss. Certainly OK if not.

Thanks. Ray
 
Ray, it would be not courtesy if not replying, You got a pm in any case. Thanks:)

No PM received. No need to reply (though I appreciate the intended courtesy) if the answer to my question is no.

Thanks.They are beauties.
