BOREAL Knives - Foragers Knife #11

John Jacobson jumped into the knife making hobby over 5 years ago now, After looking at his first shipment of knives, I would have thought he has been doing it for a lifetime. We love the fact that many of the handle materials that he uses are sustainably harvested out of the Boreal forest in Northern Minnesota. This is where his name comes from. All of his knives that we have seen have a very clean fit/finish and are ready to be used by anyone.

This one started out with the well known Lauri 58mm Mushroom blade that is X50CrMoV15 Stainless Steel and just over 2" long. The handle is made out of Spruce Burl and Birch Bark Spacer with a nickel silver ferrule. This one has a Sapele wood pommel and Horse Hair brush.

The Sheath is hand stitched and hand dyed and wet formed to fit the knife perfectly as any puukko should. The sheath is designed to be worn as a neck knife using the included Paracord. 

Quite a neat, well put together piece
