Hello dear brothers,

With God's good will i have the pleasure to present you a new knife design, a puukko on steroids with a modern twist and a combination of stylish materials.

The blade is made out using some cool looking and excellent performing O2 core San mai steel featuring a high flat grind and a back fake edge that ads a nice aggressive look. The back edge is grinded tapered in order to keep the point strong yet thin enough for it to be a performant slicer.
I finished the blade hand sanding longitudinally to 600 grit and then i etched it lightly for the contrasting pattern to better show.

The handle is a new concept in which i used a very strong material as a support for a luxurious piece of 10k years old stabilized Siberian mammoth molar. The heavy brown linen micarta base was milled to perfectly fit the precious bolster.

Everything was hand sanded, polished and finally buffed to a high finish paying lots of attention to details.

All and only the best, God bless,
Bogdan

Thank you so much my good brothers for being so nice, kind and supportive, i am very happy that you do enjoy the knife and also very happy to be again with you! In the last months i had to build a micro house for our family so i had no means, shop or tools on hand for knifemaking but now that everything starts to settle down, thanks Good God i am able to make knives again and enjoy together with you this wonderful art ;)

The blade is app 3.75" while the overall length is app 7.9".

All and only the best dear friends, God bless,

Glad to see you hammering again!!! Fantastic job on this blade above!!!!!
Hope everything falls in line for you. Looking forward to seeing what emerges from your shop!!!
 
I still remember the day when I worked with you on that general design! Happy to see it spawn so many varients, it's a beautiful shape (and you knocked the block handle out of the park the first go around!).

Are you still accepting orders?
 
My dear brothers, you make me so happy hearing that i managed to meet your expectations! Coming from old friends and customers makes these kind words even more valuable!
