Couzer Report post Posted March 3 I picked this up for $30, probably paid to much but it looked interesting. Story is that a guy purchased from a estate sale from a Doctor that collected knives in Kansas. Anyone good at identifying knives? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whitewater Report post Posted March 3 Off the top of my head. Looks like it could be an older Finnish knife in a German sheath and likely a Birch handle. Good find. Pukko sheath's usually covers the knife to nearly the end of the grip. Use it and enoy it. Some collector here will have more info. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Couzer Report post Posted March 4 I was able to reach out to a guy that knows a little about Puukko knives. He sent me this: "KAUHAVA is inscribed in the blade, a city in Finland that is famous for producing knives. Yours looks like a working knife PUUKO is how they call this type of knives. It is carbon steel so you have to oil it after work. Definitely a old piece of history. Use it and enjoy. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
