bump for interest
It's an ancient poem to please the Gods
Binlan pls
What does it say?
use google translate run from picture
I could only get the first word which is "handicraft"
I can't read that shit except for the first word so can't do much sorry
Can't get any word out of it, Can you post the text?
Also how did you get your hands on a handcrafted antique knife from a place where we really don't export these things.
You posted an absolutely shit picture to ask for a translation from
I went to finland and bought it at a big shop along with some reindeer antlers
Better?
Maybe:
Handcraft mate
Finland
No sure
not sure*
>Käsityö Kuronen.
>Finland.
yeah makes sense, thanks
Thanks, finnanon
Two years ago and it looks like that? WTF man? You should stick to the cheaper Moras if you're not going to take care of your tools. You're calling it a puuko so I imagine a birch handle right?
I fucked up, i used it to cut some lemons right after i got it and then tossed it in a box for 1.5 years
I only recently recovered it and have been taking care of it pretty well since
It's not a mora. Puukko is the one usually done all by hand whereas mora is just a plastic plaything made by swedes and they dare to call it an actual too.
tool*
Your flags looks like little candies wrapped in nice paper
It is a cool piece, traditional style sheath, that's very nice. You could use sandpaper or scotch brite pads, really the best would be a set of Japanese whetstones, scandis are easy to do. I'm not sure if that's a patina or a coating.
I'm not a big believer in carbon blades for tropical climates tbqh but the blade is probably worth some token small investment in restoration
I wasn't suggesting it was a Mora, I meant to say those are a disposable alternative.
Wait I think it's not "mate"
Kuronen is company/family producing the knive
And the knive is handmade
Ah' thanks
That explains it
It's a Kuronen brand handicraft knife made in finland then
Thanks
Definitely SS for tropics, stainless does have poor ductility at lower temperatures though so its sort of why carbon steels persist in cold places
But yes, clean it up you fucking grot
Here's a pretty cool restoration vid, obviously this guy is a pro
