Wazoo Viking Spark Necklace (Uncommon)

but decided to try a Mora in SS.
I have yet to get a Mora knife that I was unhappy with.

Equal parts function & art, Warren Thacker's #1 Damascus Tanto Puukko is truly spectacular, & at $499, not overpriced for a 4-in long 3mm-thick damascus steel knife forged & hammered by a man who must be as picky as I. Dangerously sharp, the blade at barely-there ricasso is 1 3/16-in wide--well into leuko territory--& gently tapers on both spine & edge sides toward tip like a true tanto. However, the unique sharper edge-side bend to point is angled somewhere between that of a puukko & tanto. Lotsa blade here! Don't know how many layers of 1084 & 15N20 steels there are, but the patterns are gorgeous: The prominent darker "river" running down length of reverse side resembles the winding lower Mississippi, while on obverse side adjacent to Thacker logo there is a trippy facial-like feature reminiscent of Dali's melting clock. The grip is just as impressive: Below hefty 3mm-thick brass guard is the top 1/4 of stabilized curly birch handle, this portion "toasted" a medium brown, but not so dark as to conceal signature mottling. Contrasting lighter brown leather & black G-10 washers separate it from bottom 3/4 of handle, a light natural-color birch sufficiently curly but not so dominant as to compete with damascus blade. Even so, best aspect of 5-in long, 3 3/4-in circumference (at slimmest point) handle is its ergonomic shape: Despite super-smooth surface, a very deep inward flare just below guard keeps index finger safely in place, as semi-birdhead pommel keeps pinky from slipping off. An intermediate swell at center ensures firm grip; in middle of it is a visible brass pin extending thru hidden tang. The hand-crafted sheath is thick medium-brown bovine leather embossed at top front side with Thacker logo. Stitched at side seam with high-contrast light nylon thread, the scabbard features a stiff leather layer between the 2 sides. Coupled with the perfect fit, this obviates the need for a point/edge-protecting internal lasta. The loop on rear fits up to a 2-in belt, but it's stitched rather high, so I added Redbeard's brown Helle "belt clip" to accomodate my personal preference for a dangler. A Christmas gift to myself & my 45th puukko, this fabulous Thacker Knives #1 Damascus Puukko Tanto now stands atop my collection.

Made a nice Christmas gift for chef friend.

I'm waiting to get it on Christmas morning. Will use it for hunting on my property.

I’m very impressed with the service. I can’t wait to try it out. It was sharp upon receiving. I would definitely recommend and will probably purchase another one for my son.

I bought this for my husband for Christmas. Easy ordering process, confirmation emails to let me know what was happening, and it arrived quickly. He absolutely loved it, and is so impressed with the quality of the axe

Absolute perfection. Thank you 👍 ❤️

Can do everything a bushcrafter needs to do. Great kitchen knife also.

Love the visibility, and the grip
90 degree spine is great

VERY NICE!!!!

Bought this for a project and so glad i did. I needed a longer, thinner blade for kitchen chores, but didn't want the flexibility of a fillet. This came razor sharp as always.
Made a great Christmas present.

Keeping in mind this is for knives that have a taper at the rear of the blade, this also worked with a Lauri carving knife i recently purchased, with a little filing. I ordered this on accident not realizing there was a straight version AND a tapered version. No burrs to contend with, and a lot of extra material left for final shaping. thanks!

I bought two of these 12-13 years ago from Ragweed when my son was in scouts. They are still used today by both of us and have taken much abuse over the years. I have batoned it many times and it is none the worse for wear and even used it with a piece of quartz to throw a spark on char cloth once.
I liked the handle so much I made a pattern for it to duplicate on my knife builds. I dont think there is a better value for a sub $15 knife.
