This is the thread where you can show us all your pointy items. May it be daggers, Arkansas toothpicks, pocket knives or swords. Knock yourselves out!
I´ll start by quiting topgear from an thread the other day:
"It would be good to have a section for stuff we do related to sako's but not directly like hunting rigs, knifes, hunting dogs, fishing (which many of us do when on hunting trips) etc. But maybe that's getting too far off topic for SCC? Anyway a thread at least on knifes would be really cool. Sako did have some knifes too didn't they? i.e. the ones that came with one of the anniversary models?"
Well I really do like knives but don´t own many. I have a small variety of pocket knives and fixed blades which I use as tools. I don´t collect knives except for those labelled with the Sako logo.
I didn´t know that any knives were part of any Anniversary package though? I know that Sako sold a few labelled and marked for the 90th Anniversary but that´s all I know. Perhaps someone can enlighten me and us about that?
I do have one of these and it was a gift from the CEO of Sako Sweden who happend to come across my paraphernalia site. I will post pics at a later date as I´m away from home.
But I do have another one embossed with a Sako logo. I have seen a handful of these knives posted online and I´ve seen them depicted in an old catalog I have, but this is only the second I´ve seen for sale since I started out with Sakos almost 15 years ago. Thanks to a collector and member here I became the owner of this one a few years back!
It´s new and unused and has slight wear from storage but just a few smudges really on the sheath.
The model is a traditional Finnish puukko, or knife, made by a well known Finnish maker called Kuusamo. Simple but very good to use.
There are a few varieties of these Sako labelled knives and I hope to become owner of more.
The blade is carbon steel and it´s VERY sharp.
Here are a few lousy pics:
