On this side of the world, today is the winter solstice, December 21, 2024. Wanted to say in a loud voice, “HAPPY SOLSTICE!!” Good job in picking your favorite knives. My choice would be the beautiful handmade Finnish Puukko & Leuku with birchbark handle. Thank you for keeping me entertain and informed throughout the year. Merry Christmas to you and your loved one’s.
Thank you! Happy Solistice too! (Though delayed). Now the day already tad longer:) Those are great knives!! Glad you like the content and keep supporting the channel! Thanx for watching! Have a blessed Christmas my Friend!🎄☀️🎄
My new knife for this year is a Woodsknife Puukku 105. It is so nice my son said he wanted one for Christmas. Very hard to find these in Canada so I ordered it from Finland. Really nice village you live in. Thanks.
All great but the fifth one is super stunning 🔪 I’m Persian with 7000 years of blade history in many shapes but when it comes to outdoor knives being a Finn patriot is inevitable 🇫🇮🔪
Really great knives, Ilari! You've picked up some great blades this year! As you know, I was in your village last June on my sister's prompting. It is indeed a beautiful place. Lovely in the winter too, I see. 👍🏻
Oh yeah, I remember you visited here in early summer. Next time coffee in my garden! I actually even prefere the autumn and winter here, less tourists😅. Thanx for watching my friend, have a great day!🇨🇦🇫🇮
The karhu looks fantastic. I definitely need to get round to buying the Kuukkeli. I see you have snow. Ours came a bit late this year. Great selection of knives Ilari.
The winter here alao very late. Last year this time we had one meter snow😅 Have to say I really dig the Karhu, original and balanced design. The Kuukkeli looks also nice. Thanx for watching my friend, have a great day!
Beautiful Village! Thanks for showing the beauty, especially in the winter! Great 2024 selection, but they are ALL winners in my book! Your #1 choice "Don't ask me to pronounce it, Ha!" is quite beautiful, but also such quality! My Puronvarsi 125 Puukko is incredible, it's easy to see why that Puuko is your favorite! Again, great line up, it's like deciding which one of your children is your favorite! Ha! Thx for sharing, always learning so much! Thx! 👍 "Would it be possible to post the brand/maker and model of each Finnish knife? THX!"
‘They are ALL winners in my book’ They definitely are! so hard to pick the best (bests). Also many nice ones were left out. Now even when writing, I thought I should’ve showed some few other knives also. Glad you liked also the intro! Thx for watching, have an awesome day!
@OldForestBushcraft As far as US made, I agree totally on the Rogue River, the moment I first held mine, I said: THIS IS THE KNIFE, my search is over! "MY" Perfect knife due to the fit in my hand and ergonomics, that belly and slight "angle" downward just connected with me! Every hand is different, but this one was THE ONE that seemed to be custom made for MY hand, as though it was poured into my hand! Just wish they made it in a sabre grind too! I contacted "Knives Ship Free" owner about a sabre grind model, but he is just sticking with the scandi for now, also wish it was offered in a CPM-3V, WHOA! "I can dream!" Ha! He is the one that designed it and had LT produce it for his business as an exclusive! Again, fabulous line up of best! "ALSO, the Fallkniven has got to be my FAV 'All Arounder" especially in Elmax! And Also, Haaa! It's a sickness, I swear!
Agreed, RR in saber and with supersteel would a total winner. The handle is I really the most comfortable of all. Like it was molded to into my hand. @@joncox9719
A knife with a scandy grind I find good for woodwork, but only for that task. That's why I diverted over to full flat and convex grinds that are much more usefully for everyday tasks, and can do the wood tasks quite good as well. I love knives from Lionsteel, Joker knives, JEO Tec and Steel Will.
There is truth in that. One of the reasons I like outback so much. Specially in summer. So basically I tend to use full flat, saber etc in summer. But in wintertime I often do mainly wood related heavy use bushcrafting, and for the I do like Scandi. Its so realiable and sturdy. Though a robust Convex would do the trick also, like Nomad by Joker, ir Fällkniven knives. Thanx for watching, have a great day!
Fun video! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I knew the Skrama 200 would be in there somewhere. Has the Jakaripuukko 110 replaced the Peltonen ranger knife in your affections? I recently got to spend a day in the forest with the Peltonen, and I was very impressed by it. Cheers!
Thank you! Yeah the Skrama 200 is great! As for Jääkäri 110. It hasnt replaced the Peltonen. I dont ant kmife that would, it continues to to be one of my most used blades. Thanx for watching my friend, have a great day!
Thanks for replying. I really like the look of the Swedish forest knife. I'm sort of comparing it to the Joker Nomad as a possible purchase in the new year.@OldForestBushcraft
@@8626John I really love it. At first I thought did I purchase a too large version. But now after 1 month of use, no way. I love it as a one tool option.
I have the Outback in a scandi grind. I own several LT Wright knives but as hard as it is to choose a favorite, I think the Outback takes the top spot.
Yes! I LOVE it! One of my most used knives of the end summer and autumn. was tough to choose between the Rogue River and Outback. Thanx for watching my friend, have a great day!
@@tkeefe0601 oh, a good question! I actually have to say I prefere the Outback by far. Just more versitale, better handle, as slicy, but also more robust. But the LNH is great also.
FANTASTIC KNIVES ALL OF THEM. CAN YOU TELL ME THE NAMES OF THE FIRST THREE FINNISH KNIVES, EXCEPT OF THE TERRAVA SCRAMA 240? WHAT'S YOUR OPINION ABOUT AHTI, WOOD JEWEL, H. ROSELLI AND MALANIKA KNIVES? IF YOU WANT, YOU CAN CHECK THE THREE SCHOOLS OF ELLENIC TRADITIONAL KNIVES FROM SKOPELOS ISLAND, LEFKADA ISLAND AND CRETE ISLAND. ALL THESE THREE AREAS MAKE KNIVES FOR CENTURIES. THE KNIVES FROM SKOPELOS ISLAND ARE VERY CLOSE TO THE PUUKO ONES. IN ELLAS WE HAVE APPROXIMATELY 50 KNIFEMAKERS. THEY SAY THAT THE BEST ONES ARE FROM ZAFIRIOY AND TSAFOS KNIFEMAKERS.
Hi the Finnish puukkos are (in order) Jari Liukko puukko, Yrjö Puronvarsi Laplander Leuku done by Osmo Borodulin of the Topicala, Karhu Puukko by Kivalo Design. I loooove Ahti knives, great value puukkos. Woodjewel is also good. Roselli I like, though the handels are a bit too large for me. But they are great! Malanika I have nit tested. Thx for watching!
@OldForestBushcraft THANK YOU VERY MUCH. CHECK THE GREEK KNIVES. FROM THE ROSELLI I LIKE THE FULL TANG ONES. THE CASSTROM N10, I HAVE IT AND THE LARSE FALT ALSO. THEY ARE EXCELLENT KNIVES. ALSO, THE JOKER BUSHCRAFT ONES FROM SPAIN AND THEY ARE NOT VERY EXPENSIVE.

Is this Noormarkku?
