My knifemaking ideology

"My puukkos, knives and swords are made to be used. In them, I use only high quality materials. My puukkos and knives are functional and ergonomic tools built to withstand rigorous use. Likewise my swords are real weapons - not decorations or wall-hangers. Most of my swords have a historical counterpart, whose characteristics -measurements, shapes and heft I try to recreate as faithfully as possible.

I make all stages and parts of my products myself. This way I am able to create clean-lined and highly usable tools and weapons that are a pleasure to use and are durable in use."
