Julius Pettersson Hand Forged Knife Blade

  1 of 25

  I purchased two of these knife blades for my sons so they could make their own handles. The blade itself is really great quality and we had a superb time crafting the handles together. The finished knives are each unique, made with a combination of wood from our apple tree and antler that we bought from Ray Mears. Would love to share photos of the finished product with the Woodlore team.

  This is a great quality blade. I had been wanting it for ages and now that I have it I am not disappointed. It's nicely crafted and now the only thing is I'm itching to get a handle made for it! Considering getting a second one to use for fishing too, it's that good.

  A great service, fast delivery. This is the first knife that I've made myself and soon found there's a lot of work involved. This has been a great project and a learning curve. I will post some pictures on the blog in the near future. The blade has a nice finish and I look forward to getting outdoors and putting it to use. Thanks again Woodlore Team.

  Hello to all and a special hello to one of my idols, Mr. Ray Mears. My Julius Pettersson knife arrived in the mail in a very timely manner which I was very pleased about. as for the knife itself, the quality of the blade is exquisite and the edge is a strong razor (i actually shaved with the blade and it worked great. the fact that I have to make my own handle is terrific. I will know this knife better than any other I have owned because I have a hand in the making and completion of this knife. I will post on the blog when I have finished and filed the handle along with pics of the process in making it. Thanks again. It is wonderful to own a worthy bushcraft knife that i can take on all my trips that i can rely on (it carves and batons through wood like it was butter.

  I am extremely happy with the Julius Pettersson knife. I like the width and the rugged finish it has to it. The only change I would make to this knife if I were to order a special one-off is that I would ask for a slightly wider tang to add a bit more weight to it. But that is just a slight personal preference and it could be compensated by a hevier choice of material for the handle. Overall, for what it is and the cost, I am over the moon with it.
