Knivsmed Stromeng Samekniv 8 + 3.5 double knife

The KS83 combo knife set from Knivsmed Strømeng solves multiple needs with one solution. The larger knife, Samekniv 8 (Stuorra-Niibi), is a full-sized leuku capable of splitting wood, breaking down large game, or even helping to construct shelter in harsh conditions. Its smaller sibling, the Samekniv 3.5, serves as a compact utility puukko style knife—ideal for carving, meal prep, or finer camp tasks.

Both knives are forged from carbon steel: the larger with a blade length of just over 20 cm, the smaller 8.5 cm. Each has a flared birch wood handle—oiled for grip and durability—offering control whether working light or heavy. They rest together in a single beautifully decorated leather sheath, styled in Sámi tradition.

Sámi legend says a knife is more than a tool—it may heal, protect, or stop bleeding, passed down as part of nature’s rhythm. Whether myth or meaning, the KS83 carries that northern legacy with it.
