N690 Puukko Knife Blank - N86 (N86)

N690 Puukko Knife Blank - N86

A puukko carries a straight edge and a hidden tang. That combination makes it light in the hand and easy to control for detail work in the field.

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.

Certified Voestalpine steel, hand ground in our workshop, professionally heat treated by Voestalpine before it ships. That is the whole process.
