Knives of the Norsemen

Earlier in this thread I was asked about folding puukko,
specifically Swedish Barrel Knives (folding sloyd),
I said I didn't think folding knives were classified
as puukko. Looks like I was wrong. Did a search for
fun on Amazon and got the following as one of the
results.

Evidently, puukko can also refer to folding or clasp
knives. You learn something everyday :-)
