    Default My take on a puukko

    One of the ideas I've played with over the past couple of years is the American style puukko knife, the goal being to preserve the essence of the puukko but to also modernize it. This is my latest attempt at doing that and normally the only thing I'm deviating from are the standard grinds. But here is it forged from 1095 with bolivian rosewood ferrule, leather spacers, bocote, and curly birch. All comments are welcome and thanks for looking.

    That is a fine piece of work.

    That is a work of art. You did a great job on the pants too.
