While working as a military observer in Lebanon, JP Peltonen gets his hands on an American military knife. The weight, usability and balance of the knife are in a class of their own and make a deep impression on Mr. Peltonen.
The idea of a knife with similar characteristics, but suited to the conditions of the North, remains smoldering in his mind.
Thus began the story of Peltonen Knives and its long journey from the plains of the Middle East to the Finnish forests. The idea of a knife with similar characteristics, combined with finnish knife making traditions, suited to the conditions of the North.
The only knife you'll ever need. Since 1995.
