Lets see your puukkos!

[IH8U]

I'm a big fan of and I plan to make some scandi's / puukko's here in the near future. This is the only one I have and it is the sharpest knife I have ever received. Helle Harding.

Alas, even that one isn't mine. SOMEONE here is getting a box in the mail soon.

m,

I was so interested in your knife, that I posted its photo on a different Scandinavian knife forum. Of course, they liked it and wanted to know who made it.

If you can describe the symbol and approximate age, those Scandi guys might know the maker.

Thats the "Sikforskniven" .

This one is incoming from Arizona Custom Knives; it's a forged blade by Stuart Smith:

WW!!!

THAT is a beeeaauuuty!! I might have to look into their products after having a look at that one... Great looking blade my man!

I doubt anyone imports these blades to the US, but Im not 100% sure. Theyre all hand-made from scratch, forged, grinded and hardened by one guy, so I dont think there's enough of these around to be widely available. The only source is propably the smith himself. Did you check out his web site (linked it on post #58)?

The blade I used was the "T5" from this page.

mneedham,

I had no idea that you made folders! Cool!

 

[koyote]

Oh, I'm NOWHERE NEAR insane enough to make folders. STR made the folder, it's the BUSTR model. I just happen to be fortunate enough to be making blades for them. I'm very impressed with Steve's work on the folders.

I had been looking for the 'right' folder for me for a few months when I ran across the thread in his maker's forum and it was instant love. (for the knife) - one problem was he had a limited supply of the cobbler blades. So I offered to make a few thicker blades, and this is the result.

Only folding puukko style I'm ever likely to need!

 

[mneedham]

mneedham,

Yes it is. The guard neatly folds into the handle when you put it in the sheath (helps secure the knife too..) and opens when drawn.

 

[hollowdweller]

I LOVE that!

Here's my Brusletto collection that I recently posted on "Bernard Levine's Knife Collecting & Identification." I apologize for the poor picture quality, I took the pictures with my phone.

This collection was put together by Brusletto as a limited edition to celebrate the millennium. Each knife is meant to represent a significant era: viking, middle ages, renaissance, present, and future.

Samler Eske - Collection in Brusletto wooden display box

Norron - Viking Period

Middelalder - Middle Ages

Renessanse - Renaissance

Natid - Present

Framtid - Future
