Suomi mushroom Knife

Suomi mushroom Knife
£58.00
Ex Tax: £48.33
A handmade knife from the Finnish part of Lapland, with a curly birch handle, brass bolster, stainless steel curved blade, with a vegetable tanned leather neck sheath, and a tuft of tampico bristles on the butt for the cleaning of soil and humus from freshly picked fungi. Total length about 21cm, with a blade of 57mm or thereabouts.

Care Advice

Hand wash only, and never leave soaking. Dry immediately, followed with a light coating of camellia or a mineral oil. Store in a dry environment to prevent rust formation. A sharp knife is a safe knife — use a honing rod to keep a fine edge, and sharpen with a stone when necessary. Treat the wooden handle with a mineral oil when necessary to condition the wood and prevent warping and cracking.
