Juha Perttula Whittling Puukko knife with guard
This highly requested and praised knife by Juha Perttula is suitable for hunting, fishing and hiking but it truly excels as a carving knife.
The blade is made from 80CrV2 steel. It is essentially 0.8% carbon steel, with chromium and vanadium added to ensure successful heat treatment. A remarkable feature of the blade is its dual hardening. First, the blade is hardened and tempered to the hardness of a leaf spring. Then, the cutting edge is rehardened and tempered to razor hardness. As a result, the edge reaches a hardness of 63 HRC and the spine 50 HRC. Thus, the blade won’t break during use and cuts aggressively.
Please note that in this updated version, the blade is 5 mm shorter than the original. The guard-equipped ferrule is now made of brass.
The handle is made from curly birch and treated with linseed oil varnish.
The sheath is made from 2 mm thick vegetable-tanned leather.
