What's your favorite current production Scandinavian/Finnish knife?

J. P. Peltonen's Sissipuukko is always a good modern day choice.







From the more traditional section I like Simo Passi's work. Simo was a foreman in Järvenpää puukko industry for decades, and after his retirement he went on his own and built Uniikkipuukot https://www.facebook.com/uniikkipuukot/mentions. Their internet pages where just down, so I think the great old man doesn't continue any more, but his son Teemu Passi probably does.

My favourites from Simo Passi:







Teemu Passi made me one piece just the way I asked, for boot carry. My idea wasn't very successful, because wolf's ears sting annoyingly when agaist leg 😁 But Teemu's execution was good.







 
I really like the look of the Karesuando Vargen (Wolf) and the older, slimmer Wood Jewel knives before they went berserk with the bloated whale shape and size handles.
I am also smitten with the look, feel and performance of the classic Moras: it’s hard to find a more versatile yet very comfortable grip and the blades really do cut, slice and carve like they are supposed to do. 👍👍
