Good video! Trying to pick a favorite knife is like trying to pick a favorite grandchild. Lol.

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Hahah, very very difficult indeed😀

Kiitos paljon!! I use a puukko everyday on my farm. Have used puukot of varying designs since I was 15 years old. I started using a Roselli leuku in the last three years, too. I am going to start using the skrama, now, but it's quite heavy.

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Thanks for sharing! The Roselli Leuku looks nice. I've really started to like those. I think the Eräpuu is one of my most used one of last year. Skrama is a beast, and tad bit heavy for me out in the woods.(though lighter than an axe). Planing to get the 200. Kiitos kun katsoit! Erinomaisen hyvää perjantaita!🌲🔪🌲

WONDEFUL video, so informative! I just ordered a Tommi Puukko by Risto Mikkonen! Can't wait to get it! Lamnia is my FAVORITE knife shop!

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Woow, You went for it! Nice👍. Tommi Puukkos might just be the ultimate Puukko designs. At least for me. Yeah, Lamnia is fantastic! Also very nice people running the place. I got there (in the actual shop in Lappeenranta, Karelia) about twice a year. My wifes parents live nearby. Thanx for watching and have a great day!🌲🔪🌲

Looking forward to seeing the Tommi video. Eräpuu really are fantastic alue for money arnt they. Great video Llari.

[@OldForestBushcraft]

They really seem to be one the best QPR knives in Finland (if not the best). Like also the looks. High usability&beauty&affordable, whats not to like! Thanx for watching Tim, have a great day!🌲🔪🌲

[@HankSielski]

That new Tommi puukko looks great! Looking forward to seeing the full review!

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Will do it in couple of days. Gona be a thorough one. Love it so much. Thanx for watching, and have great day!🌲🔪🌲

Hey, great video! I love your choices. 👍 Of course, you know that the LT Wright would also make my list. But man, that Tommi Puukko is calling my name. Next time I buy a knife, it might have to be one of those. I love the Tommi style. That and the Canadian Belt knife are my favourites, I think. I've been really liking my Nordic Knife Design Korpi 85. (I had to do a bit of work on the handle, surprisingly). It would prolly my my top 5 or 6. 👍🇨🇦

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Thanx! And thanx for bringing the Nordic knife design knives to my attention. Will check them out for sure! With the Large Northern happend what I mentioned would happen: bought another LT Wright. Should be here in couple of days. Cant wait! I have a suspicion it might make the list also😃 And as for Tommi, I know I will buy a next one also, that is a fact😂 Kiitos kun katsoit! Have a great day!🌲🌲🔪🌲🌲

@@OldForestBushcraftOK, my friend, I feel I need to tell you something... I love my Korpi 85, but, I have to tell you that I had to take a sharp edge off the handle... 😬 I don't know how it got by their QC. There are a few small gaps also, but I tried to fill them with CA glue. Rather than pay to ship back, I felt I'd fix it. And even with all that, I'd buy another knife from them tomorrow! I love the designs I've seen. Whoever is over there designing these is doing an amazing job, I feel. Wow, I love that knife! It will be in my list too. Hey! Maybe I'll do a response video!? Hahahah! Probably not. I hate to mention any of this publicly, as I'm sure it was a simple oversight, but if you're serious about the brand, I felt I needed to tell you my experience.

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Damn, I know the feeling, can be really annoying: you like the knife, the design etc. but QC isnt there. I hope its not a trend with them because would like to at one point definitely test some. Thanx for mentioning it!@@kanukkarhu

[@greekveteran2715]

Manly Patriot is my mosty used fixed blade knife ever. I like it better as a design, and it's fuu flat grind, compared to the TRC,which is smaller and unnecessarily saber grind, which has a logic on a 8 inch chopper, but no logic to be ona small knife like that. I also like the Kydex, compared to any leather sheath, for these kind of knives,(it's just way more practical and way more convinient)Just my opinion ofcourse, even though, these are also facts.

Thanx for sharing, and thanx for watching!🌲🔪🌲🐺🌲
