Aito ystävä, Real or genuine friend in Finnish. This is our special model for Valetine´s day. It is based on our very popular and beautiful model Aito-puukko, which has additional heart made into the handle with traditional method called intarsia. Brass is first made 0,11 mm thin and 5 mm wide pieces, it is shaped to heart with pliers and very carefully tapped with a small hammer inside the birch bark handle. Like Aito-puukko, the handle is treated with linseed oil so it has real nice feeling and is not slippery even when wet. Sheath for this special model can be chosen dark brown or black. The blade is left black and it is 8 cm long carbon steel. Heart is hand made so shape and location in the handle may vary from the ones in pictures.
