Veikko Hakkarainen Scandi Puukko Nordic Skinning Hunting Carving Knife

Very Rare custom Veikko Hakkarainen Puukko in excellent condition. The cream of the crop in Puukkos along with Tommi and some others. 58 hrc, amazing hand forged steel! 3mm thick through most of spine.

I believe this one to have been made in the 80s, possibly 90s. Obviously spending almost all of its time in a drawer. All hand constructed by VH, with long time traditional - (100s and 100s of years)layered birch bark handle. An incredible sturdy and well made Puukko. Comes with its original custom sheath also in excellent condition. A gorgeous knife and sheath, I truly hate to get rid of it. It comes from my fathers collection. For me personally it is too special a knife to use however it should be used and enjoyed as it was designed to be. I have plenty of knives.
