another puukko just finished

[mark.177]

well almost! little bit of polishing and a sheath needed. made from 5mm o1 but the blade with the grind is 4mm at its thickest leaving a nice thick tang.
100mm blade length and 230mm overall.
used up some scraps of micarta, g10 and a little piece of kirinite for the handle and managed to get a good pien this time, o1 can work harden quickly!
any way hope you like it as much as i do! its not perfect but im really pleased with this one.

Your work is exquisite Mark.
Top job

Tidy!

Lovely clean knife. I'v often wondered why you don't see more micarta puukkos. Such a durable handle combo

Very nice mate, I do like pukko's and that's a lovely example. I have just bought a Malanika Pukko in CPM 4V.

Great, FennoScandinavian design!
Could be a luxury/upmarket Mora knife!

Ah, that’s a pity, I was interested to see how they performed, I have a Nepalese khukuri, which is very pretty but super thick and heavy, I really like the capability of them, but was thinking of getting a lighter, thinner one.
