The newer version no longer has a 25° secondary bevel.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModern leuku for outdoors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSturdy rubber handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e200 mm (7.85\") full-tang carbon steel blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Finland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSkrama - as in Scramasax or Seax, a big single-edged knife popular in Iron Age Europe. Much like the Lapland Leuku, it serves many purposes. A cool name is always nice, and the best ones are those with some history behind them - our 21st-century Skrama would surely meet the demands of any Iron Age man from \"ye good olde days\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHeart of Skrama is the blade\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Skrama blade is slightly curved with a sheepsfoot tip. The curve helps to rock the knife on a cutting board when cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are two versions of the Skrama. The older version features a secondary bevel, with the edge sharpened to two different angles: a 25° section near the grip for fine work and whittling, and a 34° angle along the rest of the blade for chopping. The newer version no longer has a secondary bevel. Instead, the edge is ground to a uniform 34° angle along the entire length. Going forward, only the new, uniformly ground version will be available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen splitting firewood, you can beat the back of the blade with another piece of wood; the knife is designed to withstand this. However, don’t beat it with rocks or other things that are harder than wood. The full-tang blade ends in a lanyard loop. With the handle molded over, it's really not going to loosen or come off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hole in the blade serves production purposes - it is used when tempering the blades and later during other steps of manufacturing. Of course, you can come up with your own uses for it too, but most importantly, it is there for a purpose, not for decoration!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSkrama 80\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA very small and handy little general-purpose knife with that sweet sheepsfoot blade profile familiar from bigger Skramas. Tough, easy to carry, and great for all those small tasks that you come across most often. Get one of these to accompany an axe or a big choppa. Made in Kauhava, Finland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBlade and handle\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust like our other Skramas, this knife has a sheepsfoot blade profile, and the spine is ground and beveled to strike sparks from ferro rods. You will be thankful for this when your clothes and matches are wet, the sky is falling, and you need a warming fire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery tough full tang blade with a textured over-molded rubber grip that isn’t slippery even when wet. The tang comes out of the back, forming a little knob with a hole for lanyards and such.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDouble Sheath\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis double sheath is compatible with the Skrama 200 and the Skrama 80 or Jääkäripuukko 85, the small sheaths are identical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight (sheath only): 200 g (7.1 oz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight (w. two knives): 695 g (24.5 oz)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e60 mm (2.4\") wide belt loop, fits just about any belt you can find, even those extra-wide military types.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD-ring swiveled belt loop lets the knife turn on your belt keeping it from coming in the way.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSnug fitting press-stud strap secured the knife properly in its place. \u003cb\u003eWhen brand new the strap may seem \"short\", just pull on it a bit or wet it with warm water and it will soon get a perfect length and shape!\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA grommet for a leg tie at the tip.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrain hole at the bottom.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHigh-quality materials: the leather is 2 mm (0.08\") thick vegetable tanned cowhide, strong and sturdy.

In addition to producing top-quality sheath and Nappa leathers with a minimized waste of materials and emissions, they are respectful towards the source of the raw materials: the animals as well as the nature in which they live.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePelo Leather uses elk and yak hides provided by hunters and nomads, and only cowhides that are a side-product of the milk and meat industries. The cowhides come from local abattoirs that have standards for ensuring the wellbeing of the animals. No animals are reared for the purpose of producing these leathers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTheir business quarter is 25 years instead of 3 months and a lot of effort is put into the processes and logistics of the business, to provide a cleaner environment for future generations.
