Scandi for a friend.

**lefteris** · 28-03-12, 08:17 PM

I have a very good friend who is also a member here in BB as Nickblade. He makes very nice knives but no scandis.He likes more knives with bolsters and full tangs.So i decided to present him a scandi and maybe i will turn him in a scandi lover.

Blade carbon by Helle,brass,buffallo horn and briar wood.
Comments are welcome.

This is a lovely piece of work, lefteris. It is simple, yet nicely balanced. I particularly like the wood you used. The rest goes very well with the strong and long blade. The sheath is sober and very well done. A kind of knife that will make a wonderful gift.

Yours puukko is very skilled work, I like both desingn and materials. But untill next time you have to educate youself to do skandinavian style back seamed sheath. IMO it´s one of the main attribute in skandinavian style.

Very nice...

**Fjellräv** · 29-03-12, 08:57 AM

Proper work, mate. Great fit and finish and appealing materials. Even though the sheath is not that traditional, you did a very nice job, esp. like the belt loop! Your friend will be very happy with it.

thats nice lefteris. looks very tactile and nice balance of materials to my eye. if you're short of friends to give knives to let me know because I would be very happy to receive that.

I am the friend with the scandi knife! The knife is really good! Beautiful handle for secure grip and very good work on the sheath. It’s so good that I might even start to like scandi knives!

Thanks Lefteris! It’s a very good knife and I honor it in any of my outdoor activities.
