Wanted - Lapp puukko

[rapidboy]

Anybody got one or know where to buy one ?

 

[giancarlo]

I've got one (you know that tho, pestering you about sheath! )

I got mine from Stuart a few years ago, I know he doesn't do that anymore.
However, I think he mentioned in an recent thread that his family still keep the site up because they had a few knives left. Might be a Lapp Puukko in there .

Edit: Yep, this post:

Give him a shout, sure he'll let you know.

Cheers

I bought a Puukko a little while back from Nordica Heat on ebay . Great little knife designed by H.J.Merimaa Finland http://www.kolumbus.fi/harri.merimaa/mallistosivu.htm. Incredibly easy to sharpen & retains a sharp edge. I prefer and use carbon steel but stainless is also available.
No connections other than very satisfied customer etc.

Thats the one I have. Bought it from Keelham Knives in States. Sure it was dearer than that. Thats a very good price.

I know Attleborough sell them over here but not sure about price.

It's the best price I could find, I think now is a particularly good time to take advantage of the exchange rate.

Just swapped one of these with Dougster, They are really well made but the handle/blade ratio just didn't suit my hand and the blades too thick for gutting. IMHO The Lappi knives are better made than Issakkis.

I have one on the way now

Thanks lads.

 

[heath]

Which one did you go for?

 

[rapidboy]

It's the same as the one on evilgay,

I need it to make a sheath for one the same as that one and always wanted a look at one.

 

[KAE1]

Don't know if it's the same as the one I had but the sheath was joined to the belt loop by an 'o' ring, this pulled through and the knife and sheath fell from the loop. Might want to modify/improve on the one you make.

Many places in scandinaviasell knives online, these ones often appear on ebay but instead of waiting you can buy direct.
