    I'm after a puukko, what would you recommend?

    Hi folks

    As above, I'm after a puukko. I was looking at some Marttiini knives (lumberjack) but some say their quality has gone down hill lately. I have a budget of around £40. I can only really think or Marttiini and Wood jewel

    cheers,

    Alex

    Contact Jakob and Simon Nylund, they do world class blades well within your budget mate. You just need to put a handle on it.

    My Martiini Arctic Circle has served me well for quite some time (bought a year ago), replacing the Mora Companion HD I used to carry. I wear it as a neck knife.

    Didn't hear about the quality issues you spoke of - maybe it's with their stainless blades...?

    I've had good luck with a Lappin puukko ragnars has them pretty decent priced. Sadly I don't have it let it go to get an essee 5 but is cheap enough to replace.
