Product Description

With Leather Belt Sheath or Zippered Collector's Pouch

"Nature has been for me, for as long as I can remember, a source of solace, inspiration, adventure, and delight; a home, a teacher, a companion."
This knife fairly screams, "Quality! Quality! Quality!"

Marttiini is a Finnish firm that has been crafting superb knives since 1928. Both their knifemaking skills and authentic Finnish designs are outstanding!

For people in the arctic regions, e.g. the Finns, a knife has always been an important means of survival in harsh conditions. Knives were necessity in collecting firewood and making a fire, making tools and implements, construction, hunting, fishing and preparing the kill for cooking and eating. Marttiini knife factory has a long tradition in combining handicraft skills and practical needs.

This substantial, heavy duty folder (4 7/8 inches closed) has a 3 1/2 inch stainless steel blade which is hollow ground and with a mirror finish! It measures 57-58 on the HRC (hardness scale). It weighs 6.3 oz (180 gms).

This knife is all stainless - including the gracefully curved bolsters. The handle is shaped with a finger grip, and takes a long (4 inch) piece of fossil ivory.

This knife is equally at home on your belt in the wild, or in a collector's exhibit case!

Even after all this time, Fossil Ivory remains warm and sensuous organic ivory; it is not petrified. It has developed its beautiful colors by taking up minerals from the earth and these colors are impossible to match in any contemporary ivories by modern processes.
