Lauri-carving-95-with-ricasso-and-hammered-finish

Have made several gift knives with these blades and each person has commented on the quality and edge of them. My go to blade for looks and quality.

I’ve purchased several of these over the last few years. They are great knives that just get the job done at a great price point. I do a lot of mods with them and have gifted several. You’ll never go wrong with a Mora Robust.

I decided to remove the black scale with a wire wheel. This blade looks good black or silver.
I broke away from traditional patterns and used ebony scales with red G10. I like being different sometimes.
This method is not easier, but still works.
Take care!

I was really glad that you carried the Mora #122.its a very hard to find knife. The knife is excellent for the finish cut that won’t take a deep dive into your practicality finished project. Cheers

Bought two ( Ragnar and then Redbeard) and gifted both; one to a
NON KNIFE OWNER looking worried when I produced it to open her frozen

The slanted pommel is a perfect thumb rest for a reverse cut and the

My GF purchased on EvlBAY. I was upset! We buy from RF! Then we saw she had. Redbeard gave his usual exemplary service to a fellow Sept member. He obviously hand selected
For stunning wood figure and above average grind lines.

very good knife

This is a needle point blade that has good geometry for carving. It could be used for most cutting tasks but be careful with that fine tip in my opinion. Its a value for the price. Leave it rough or finish it all the way. Keep in mind that these are machine punched out from sheet metal. You will need to take extra time with fitment if you want perfection. I'd suggest buying a file guide to get everything squared up.
Here is my creation. Its somewhat traditional, and definitely different from the norm. I finally found a use for that buffalo nickel.
Have fun with your knife builds!

Just finished my Leuku in it, beautiful wood, very resinous so it kills sandpaper and file quickly, my handle work is not the best to show case it

Couldn't be happier, what a great knife. I purchased this knife not knowing anything about the maker and I'm glad I did. This knife is very well made with a nice big usable handle, I have large hands and it fits me perfect. The blade is stout (tall) and the perfect length to make it a very capable skinner. I'm looking forward to testing in out on a Pennsylvania White Tailed Deer. Wish me luck.

What can I say, if you like the Temagami you'll like the Wabakimi same great feel and attention to detail but with a shorter blade. I believe it's going to make an excellent skinning knife.

This stone can take a semi-sharp edge and fine tune it into well sharpen one.

This knife has become my daily wear in uniform, I've beat the hell out of previous
knives in the field and this ones is very tough and has held an edge very well! I would definitely buy this again! Especially with Ben spanglers warranty! It's also nice to help support a fellow veteran!

A little bit pricey but no one forced me to buy it, it was my decision. The knife is beautifully made and the handle is perfect, the icing on the cake. I own several Helle knives and I’m sure this is not my last.

I've tried many compounds this is the best of the best as would be expected from Ragweed Forge
