Some knives I made lately

[Peter Larsson]

Not sure about some of the blades but those handles are some of the most beautiful ive ever seen awesome work congratulations

The blades are typical hunting blades over here.
I guess that kind of blades are hard to sell outside of Scandinavia.
A bit strange because we hunt about the same kind of animals as in North America.
On the other side it is hard to sell a big full tang knife to the hunters i Sweden.
Fun to se the difference it the knife culture!

And some more!

 

[Dr Ray]

I like that! Great idea!!

 

[perttime]

Lovely!
The Scandinavian ones are very much like the "puukko" knives that I'm used to - but not quite. Is that a traditional style in some part of Scandinavia, or a modern take?

 

[Peter Larsson]

It is typical Scandinavian models.
It is the type of knives that most hunters use here.

I recall this blade in Bo Bergman's book, a prehistoric skinning knife. Basically the Lapland version of an ulu. Nicely done!

 

[Peter Larsson]

I know I saw it in a book long time ago.

[Peter Larsson]

Three more out of the oil!

Just need some polish and some leather work.

 

[Peter Larsson]

The four last knives this year out of the oil!

Now it's time to tidy up the workshop and start the leather work!!!
Guess it will take the most of the winter to get that done!

 

[Peter Larsson]

Just started the leather work:

 

[Peter Larsson]

Finally got some knives ready!

 

[perttime]

Oooooo.... I like them. Especially the top one.

What did you use for handles? Some look like it could be birch, with a little color added.

 

[Peter Larsson]

Yes it is birch with brown leather stain on!
The leather is from the buff in my avatar.

 

[Peter Larsson]

Continuing with my leather woork.
Finished two with horizontal carrying and two
in Bowie style or what you can call them.
Think it is interesting with the contrast between the cape buffalo leather and cow leather.

 

[Peter Larsson]

Made some knives in "safari style" (ok,my idea of safaristyle)
