Knives of the Norsemen

The only Norwegian knife I have is one I got from
Ragweed Forge, a Haugrud Baglerkniven. I also like
the leather sheathed ones with scroll work on the sheath
and knife fittings. There an interesting one on ebay
now (but I can't mention that :-) Too expensive for me,
but a nice looking knife IMHO. Most of my puukko
are Finnish with a couple Swedish thrown in for good
measure. I guess what I find most amazing with Scandinavian
knives is the steel quality (will take and hold a shaving
edge - literally) and the clean functional lines.
