Click on the image for an enlarged view of the knife and its sheath.
#3515, The "Rävan Special" (Fox) is one of the ones that feels so good to me.
The handle has just enough shape to give control without restricting you to
one grip. The curly birch handle is a bit over 4". There is just the
suggestion of a finger guard. All of these are handmade knives, and the
handles may vary up to a 1/4" or so. If you have a preference, let me know.
The blade is 3 15/16" long
(10 cm.), 13/16" wide and .100" thick. It comes with a dark brown sheath
with a belt strap rather than a thong. The sheath accepts belts up to about
1 1/2", and has a plastic liner.
#3520, The Örnen (Eagle) is a more traditional version. The handle is shaped more in the
Saami tradition. The carbon steel blade is just under 4" and about .1" thick. The
sheath swings from a thong in the fashion of the far North. The handle
gives excellent control for the draw cuts favored when the hands are gloved
or numbed with cold. It's about 4 1/4" long, and the knife is about 8 1/4" overall.
#3516, The Rävan (Fox) is also in the tradition of the far North. It comes with a Sandvik Stainless
blade about 4" long, 7/8" wide and .127" (~1/8") thick. The handle has an attractive antler spacer and pommel cap. It’s shaped to provide just a hint of a guard to keep your fingers off the blade. It fits my average sized hand very well. The dark brown sheath hangs from the traditional twisted thong. 
#3524, The Ripan (Ptarmigan) has an attractive handle of alternating spacers of
reindeer antler and curly birch. The handle is about 4 3/8" (11 cm) long and very comfortabe in the hand.
The Sandvik stainless blade is 3 7/8" (10 cm.). The picture shows a sheath of natural
colored leather, but current stock comes with a dark brown sheath. $93.
#3506, The Vildmark (Wilderness) is done in the style of current Scandinavian custom knives. The handle
has a finger cutout, and just enough guard to keep your hand off the blade. It's well shaped for positive
control in my medium sized hand. The Sandvik stainless blade is 3 1/4" long, 13/16" wide, and about
.127" thick. It comes with a medium weight sheath with a belt loop that will take belts up to about
1 1/2" wide. The knife and sheath weigh about 5 ounces. The price is $59.
#3507, The Älgen (Elk) Special has a Sandvik Stainless blade 3 1/4" long, 7/8" wide, .128"
thick. The 3 3/4" handle has an antler spacer with just a bit of shape to keep your finger from
moving forward. It comes with a traditional sheath that hangs from a thong in natural color leather.
This one feels good to me. 
#3532, The Älgen (Elk) is very similar, but has a 3 1/4" carbon steel blade.. The 4" handle has the same
antler spacer, and no finger guard. It comes with a traditional sheath that dangles from a thong
in dark brown leather. The price is $64.
#3533, The Bocken (Buck) is just a bit smaller, with a Sandvik stainless blade
about 3 1/8" long, 13/16" wide, and .128" thick. The handle has the same
curly birch, antler spacer and brass finger guard, and is about 3 3/4" long.
It's a very comfortable knife for those with smaller hands.
It also comes with a heavy weight sheath for $85.
#3513, The Järven (Wolverine) is of the more traditional Sammi style. It has the
typical pronounced flair to the wide, flat pommel. The handle
is an assembly of reindeer horn and curly birch, and is about 4 1/4".
The Sandvik stainless blade is 3 7/8" (10 cm.). The sheath is a has
a leather top section with a curly birch base. There is an insert of reindeer
horn down the front of the sheath which is engraved with an attractive
design. These are done by hand and will vary somewhat. It's altogether
a very nice package. Current stock has dark brown leather rather than the natural
colored leather in the picture. The price is $99.
#3525, The Splitting knife is the European version of a gut hook. Because it cuts from the
flesh side of the hide it doesn't clog with fur. It's also useful for boning and similar chores.
The blade is sharpened on the upper surface and has a blunt point. The blade is about 4"
long with about 2 1/2" the upper edge sharpened. The handle is built up from antler and
curly birch. $89.

The $6 doesn't actually cover the cost in most cases, but it's easy to calculate, and is my way of saying "thank you". Shipping is available for most other parts of the world, but usually costs more. Email for a quote. Note; shipping to Canada can be very slow.
