R.Nurmi PUUKKO - #18 Coco Bolo Wood with Moose Antler spacers

Though I have 2 other puukkos made by Rick Nurmi, an American, this # 18 is at the top, as everything about it reflects Saami (formerly Lapland) culture. 1st, the 3 11/16-in-long X 3/32-in-thick BLADE is a high-carbon hand-"Finnish"ed Lauri, one of the sharpest ever brand new. 2nd, the nickel-silver-bolstered, ergonomically contoured dark brown cocobolo wood HANDLE features 4 1/4-in-thick white moose antler spacers, the bottom 2 visible when knife is fully inserted into SHEATH. It's a traditional rear-seam, flared-tip dangler with 4 matching white moose hoof prints fashioned from moose antler carefully imbedded flush in, & contrasting dramatically against, the dark brown vege-tanned leather. How cool is that? Unique, great looking, with a near-4-in dangerously keen blade, & made mostly in USA, it has everything you could want in a true Scandinavian-style puukko. And Redbeard knocked $60 off the stiff $429.99 price due to minor handle damage I fixed to almost imperceptible! Thank you Rob. You are the best.
