The knife you see is the one you get! The blade is immaculate and has maker etched in print. The handle is birch

The Iisakki Järvenpää Company was founded in 1879 and is the largest manufacturer of knives in Kauhava, Finland, a well-known town which has a long and rich history of being known for knife making. They use high carbon steel or AISI 420 stainless steel to make their knife blades, hardened to 57-58 Rockwell. Handles are made from locally sourced curly birch wood, occasionally with birch bark spacers. Fittings are also produced internally at their factory. The result is a complete item that is 100% sourced from the same manufacturer, designed and created to work together seamlessly. The blades are all ground individually, making each one a bit unique, and all are stamped with Iisakki Järvenpää\'s signature. Belt loops are usually a flat piece of leather folded into a loop and attached to the sheath with a metal ring which lets the sheath swivel, but some models have a twisted leather thong, which is more traditional. Sheathes are stamped with images of reindeer and forests, highlighting Finland\'s strong culture of outdoors, hunting, and woodcraft.
