Description
For the handle material, we chose beautiful curly birch to contrast the dark carbon steel. For extra protection, a layer of see-through wax was added. The elegant sheath made of light brown leather seals the deal. As a natural material, leather ages uniquely over the years to create an illustration of the life of your knife.

The stainless steel used by Marttiini is an easy-to-maintain material that ensures the sharpness of the blade for which it is used for a long time. The steel alloy contains 13% of chromium and its hardness is 53–54 HRC. Chromium steel can be sharpened with a diamond sharpener. The traditional material used for Finnish knife handles is curly birch. The wood comes from the curly birch belt in Central Finland. The blaze-patterned curly birch is an excellent material for knife handles, because it's durable and beautiful. Curly birch is available on the market in limited amounts, which rises the price notably higher than regular birch.
The leather sheaths of Marttiini knives are made of either vegetable or chrome tanned ox hide. The leather hides are purchased from both Europe and South America. The knife sheaths are still made mostly by hand. Each sheath has to be exactly the right size and shape, so it forms a fitting pair with the knife.
