N690 Puukko Knife Blank - N84 (N84)

N690 Puukko Knife Blank - N84

The puukko is Finland's contribution to knife design and still one of the most practical patterns ever drawn. Short, stiff, and shaped for carving.

This is Böhler's cobalt-alloyed stainless. In outdoor use it holds an edge through hard work and does not pit when the knife lives in a damp sheath.

The steel comes straight from Voestalpine. Profiling and grinding happen on our benches; hardening and tempering go back to the mill.
