Notice when sheathing and unsheathing the leuku

Always gently squeeze the mouth of the sheath when drawing the leuku or inserting it back into the sheath. This helps prevent damage to the opening of the sheath.

Also make sure the blade slides properly into the wooden liner inside the sheath.

Please note that as each knife is handcrafted, its appearance may vary slightly from the product images. Every knife is unique.
