What's the Best Puukko Knife?

[coelacanth]

take a look at the Kellam knives website. . . . .

They have a little different selection than Ragnar and I can personally vouch for their customer service. Juoni and Harriet have been very pleasant to deal with over the years and their products are second to none. If you are looking for Finnish puuko and the leuku favored by the Laplanders this is your kind of place.

Don't think there is a 'best' out there, but I just received this forged puukko from Kaleb of Muskrat man knives (top in photo along with bushcraft he also made for me). I just spent all morning doing hard pruning with it in the back yard. Scary sharp with polished bevels, no problems cutting greenwood up to 1.25" with very little effort. Aggressive curve and point actually turned out quite useful for woodworking/chore duties as well as food prep.

This one will be my main 'user' for now as i will put away my self-handled puukko I made using a Lauri PT blade. Used to use a Kellam Wolverine before that (the Kellam uses Lauri PT blades for their Wolverines).
