Polar 95 Stainless Puuko - Finnish belt knife
Took some better photos of the Polar 95 Stainless Puukos last week, these are a good all-around knife for when out and about, camping or fishing. The blade is in X55 Stainless steel, the handle in curly birch and heat treated birch finished with linseed oil and brass fittings. The sheath is either natural like in this photo, or brown in colour.
