Woodore 25th anniversary knife, who else has one,

[Retired Member southey]

Hello I was wondering if anyone else on here has one of the 250, I have number 151, I really enjoy using my knife in and around the house as well as out and about, does anyone know what was used to colour the wood or is natural, I have good fun with mine I hope you do too!

I don't have one but may i be the first to congratulate you on actually USING the knife.

Does anybody know what kind of steel this one is made of? Apart from being 'carbon' It is never mentioned and for some reason I think that a real smithy like Petterson will resort to spring steel i.o. tool steel.

Just curious.

I am pretty sure it is 01,although i'm not sure it is called that in Sweden!
I did ask when I ordered mine (no.171) and the answer was "hand forged carbon tool steel"
Havn't used mine yet tho!! ( I do,however,have a lot of knives and seem to reach for my Dave Budd Green Man Pro. most often when out in the woods!)
Cheers.

Brilliant, I make mine out of the same material - must be time for a price hike!

The blade is a laminate. I don't know the exact steel JP uses, but the edge is a hard core wrapped with a softer outer. I think he uses birch or pine tar to stain and cover the scales.

I have been thinking of getting one, they do crop up on here and BB quite often but I didnt know what steel they were, now I know they are laminate I will be keeping my eyes open.
