Brisa Nessmuk Knife, Black Micarta Handle Scales

Brisa Nessmuk Knife, Carbon Steel

A knife blade to be used for bushcrafting, camping, skinning and chopping.

One of the best allround compromises and the latest knife from Finnish maker Brisa. 

The Nessmuk story:

George Washington Sears (December 2, 1821 – May 1, 1890) was a sportswriter for Forest and Stream magazine in the 1880s and an early conservationist. His stories, appearing under the pen name, "Nessmuk" popularized self-guided canoe camping tours of the Adirondack lakes in open, lightweight solo canoes and what is today called ultralight camping or ultralight backpacking. . He took his pen name from a Native American who had befriended him in early childhood.

The Brisa Nessmuk Knife:

• 125 mm blade length in Carbon 80CrV2 steel
• Scandi Grind with tempering colours left on the top half of the blade
• Rough finished Black Micarta scales and nickel silver fittings
• Sheath in solid leather

The blade is 3.8 mm thick, 26-35 mm wide and 125 mm long, total length including handle is 235 mm. Comfortable handles in attractive Curly Birch and brass bolts. The blade is in 80CrV2 tough Carbon Steel with a hardness of 58-59 HRC.

From Brisa:

Got a roughed finnish to ensure a great grip in any conditions. 

We prioritize slicing to chopping with this grinding angle. If you intend to use the Nessmuk for heavy chopping, our recommendation is

to add a second bevel approximately 16 + 16 = 32 degrees.
