This is what I always post in these threads. :D I unfortunately don't have pics of my collection, except of some random knives, like this one, which is my current EDC user Tommipuukko.

A very good knife to have in the woods. Coupled with an axe or a large knife, it can do everything I might possibly ever want to do out there.
 
No, this one is made by Pentti Kaartinen (hence the "PK" on the blade). I have several of Jukka Hankala's knives, but unfortunately little in the way of photos.
 
Beautiful knife Elen. :thumbup:

This is the only one I have at the moment but I'm planning on more, I've really come to like puukkos.

Here's one of my puukkos - a Mora blade from Lee Valley that I handled.

Above is my EDC pocket scandi, which has a way of sneaking into most of my photos.

Thanks. It's made by Paaso and is a production knife. I bought it on ebay from a seller in Finland. If you do a worldwide search for 'puukko' you should find them.
 
Those knives look interesting, but i would be afraid of my hand slipping on to the blade, i assume this does not happen or they would not be so popular.
I assume the tip does not snap either?

Actually i remember a ship that came into our harbour (we are a port city) and there were a bunch of guys all working on the ropes on the boat and everyone of them had this kind of knife either in their hands or on their belts...

iBlade, I can see how you would be concerned about slipping and cutting your finger. I felt this way too, before I started using puukkos. They are actually very safe. I have never had to thrust with a puukko, which is where slippage would be most likely. They excel at woodworking, food prep, and other tasks where the combination of downward pressure and the thin edge profile makes for easy cutting.

All the best,
