Big Leuku knife.
This knife is made in the traditional style.

A little history.
The Leuku is the traditional knife of the Sami people. The Sami are the indigenous people of northern Scandinavia (Norway, Sweden, Finland). They are nomadic Reindeer-Herders. Due to their life style they always had the need for a knife. Typically the Sami carry more than one knife. A smaller knife called the “Puukko” and a bigger heavier knife called the “Leuku”. The Leuku is used for all the heavy-duty work, such as chopping wood, butchering large animals and building shelters. It is usually made of carbon steel and comes with a traditional leather sheath. The handle is commonly made of natural materials such as wood (most often birch), Reindeer antler, bone and brass. In its style and appearance, the Leuku is a typical Nordic knife.

The knife handle is made of moose antlers and wood (stabilized maple). The handle also contains leather inserts.

Hand forged blade.
The knife blade is made of Carbon Steel D2. D2 - refers to steels with a high content of elements such as chromium and carbon, which gives it excellent cutting properties, relative corrosion resistance, and the required toughness.

The knife came with a typical Nordic style leather sheath. The belt loop extends around the top of the sheath. The leather is sewn together at the back of the sheath. Inside in the sheath is a wood insert.

Our knives impress not only with their functionality but also with their exquisite design.
