The Peltonen M95 Puukko is the Finnish Military Field Knife that is NATO approved. The Design comes from the traditional Finnish knife that has been used for hundreds of years but updated to be a serious tool for the outdoors. @Peltonen_Knives I came across the M95 at the Blade Show in Atlanta and was so impressed, I bought it. It was even more impressive after the field test.

I got the slightly shorter Peltonen M07 in January and it has since become my favorite knife. High quality, robust and easy to sharpen. Knives from Finland like the Peltonen M07 and M95, the Terävä Jääkäripuukko or the large Terävä Skrama are made for hard use, perfect one tool options!
Greetings fro Finland. I have had black version maybe 11-12 years. It's is pretty capable knife.
Bought this blade for my bro in 82nd. He loves it
Airborne are baddass strong lads. Well done I'm sure it comes in handy
@@Miller_Time He meant 82nd ranked Fortnite player.
I'm a sucker for Finnish knives. I'm gonna order a couple I've been using the Jakarripuuko from verastelaka
"Jakaripuukko" might be a fun tool. (jakari is a slang term of adjustable wrench in finnish.)
Puukko is a great gift for young men going into the army for their mandatory service. A knife is really useful there.
Really interesting knife. Almost like a Cadillac mora!
haha!
Ill get this. I carried a Finish knife during my time in the IDF (also in Lebanon) . Gifted to my father by the Colonel of Fin.Bat.
Served me well. On my wall now. You can't go wrong with Finnish Knives.
I got the same knife (black one) from mr Peltonen himself at the blade show as well! Nothing but LOVE for the knife!
The early version has a rounded spine, full flat grind with a leather sheath. The rubber wheel is a rubber grommet for running wire through which is pure genius!
Hook your thumb over the sheath to pull it back into the sheath instead of pushing works very well.
This knife inspires confidence!
Nice video as always!
PS 2 mistakes I often see done, by many CZcamsrs. No1,that's not feathersticking...what's demonstrated here,is simply cutting wood.Fethersticks are something very different, a part of a technique that helps start a fire. No2, Amount of Carbon on a steel, has nothing to do when scraping a ferro rod, it only takes a sharp edge to do that.That means, that you can scrape a ferro rod, with a piece of glass or anything hard but most importantly sharp. What makes people get confused with that, is the technique where we can use a hard rock in an emergency, to hit the spine of a Low alloy (Carbon steel) blade, in order to create a spark,that can be used with different techniques to create fire. That though, is sonething completely different, with the use of ferro rods.
I do love a puukko! I always think of Valmet bayonets when I see a Finnish puukko. I think the leather sheath would be the most quiet draw, the composite second and kydex third - if that matters to anyone. The Valmet bayonet button held itself nicely inside the leather sheath and was very quiet to draw. I love Suomi!
Thank you.
The construction of the M95 leather sheath allows to attach the M23 in the kydex sheath. I'm using this combo as an outdoor set. Old M07 leather sheath also had this option, but not anymore.
Greetings from Finland 🇫🇮❤️🇺🇸
That song.. thanks, Sootch!
I got this knife when they were originally introduced into the American market, I had read about it in an issue of the now defunct magazine Tactical Knives. Later, I got the smaller M07 and actually preferred it more. It lived in my GHB for years. I did find that the ribs on the bottom of the handle were slightly aggressive, but not uncomfortable. Since I had to sale them later I have missed them, so I will have to get busy and reorder them lol!! Mine did have the leather sheath which I prefer.
Had the pleasure of meeting the man himself at the IWA, very cool guy.
What the hell is IWA?
@@bushcraft6884 It's like the german/europe version of shoot show. But only for traders and the like and you can find near anything there. From clothing to kamikaze drones.
Nice looking knife, may have to get one of those after I get 3 more Sootch Oknives for gifts!
The same knife I carry for large game hunting and a general purpose camp knife. Thanks for your review.
I love it 😊
80CRV2 is a carbon steel infused with Chrome and Vanadium. It takes longer to sharpen but holds its edge better than just plain carbon steel.
D2 is good for that too high Chrome harder to rust than other tough steels.
I wouldnt say infused...its literally part of the chemical makeup from the beginning when making the steel. Also it hardly makes a difference regarding edge retention as the amount of Vanadium and Chromium is far too low. Its primarily used to aid in a heat treat with smaller grain size and allowing it to get slightly harder on the rockwell scale while still having such low carbon.
I love this knife so much that I have 15 variations. M90 and M07 in different finishes, scabbards etc. Ideal for use in Scotland, where I live. Conditions not unlike Finland, which is just a short hop over the sea.
Like the look of this knife. I'll certainly get one.
For chopping, I use a "short machete " purchased at Tractor Supply, it works well, and is of very high quality...
Impressive
Had one for years now, its my go to field knife!
My favorite knife. I have two of these, the old version and the new one.
That is a damn good looking knife!!
Very great review Sir. Thanks a million. Already my dream next knife. Wish you could compare it with Bark River Aurora II full convex. They seem to have some similarities I believe.
My favorite knife is a puuko by TOPS! If I see this one in my area I’ll check it out! Good video!
I use one since about 10 years. Pookko’s are my favo knives.
I have quite a few of them.
Finnish military gear tends to interest me since all four of my maternal great grandparents were imigrants from Finnland so I am half Finnish. I have been wanting to buy a puuko style knife since I first read about them (it was in the fiction novel Dies the Fire).
I like puukko’s and leuku’s. I think I need one of those for my collection.
That's an awesome blade, I might have to get one 😅
And, a Sami guy told me that they should have a "circular" profile handle, so that it can be used in 'pull' as well as 'push' cutting...
I have 3 of these, one of them the old full flat and leather sheath.
BTW I can really recommend the Vegvisir Creations sheaths for this model. Check them out.
Good looking knife and review, thanks for sharing YAH bless !
Legendary knife.
The Finns wanted a balance between a military knife and a bushcraft knife.
They succeeded.
Its built like a tank and works down to minus 40c.
I really like the Scandinavian military knives, they are very well thought-out yet simple and effective. I have the Fällkniven F1 and it's great for just about everything I throw at it.
Great Review. That seems like it's a pretty good blade , I think that Teflon Coating on that 90° spine is the reason why the blade isn't throwing sparks which kinda sucks because I like that Coating .... 👍🖖
I agree the coating is probably the cause of the firesteel striking issue. Probably could be fixed by using a file or something to remove the coating from the spine or at least a section of it.
Reminds me of the Swedish Mora knife system
Super odcinek pozdrawiam
Yeah, I have one in black. Never sharpened it, because it comes silly sharp. Cut myself once trying to wash it, it went atraight through the tea towel 😂
80CRv2 likes the black compound on a strope takes a super keen edge and holds it pretty well not as well as 3v but it's not as tough as 3v either
maybe show how it cuts in different meats, such as a nice steak
One sits near the computer. A last ditch knife in the home office. I own two. This is the only fixed blade knife that I have bought a second unit in the last 15 years. It is a Mora on steroids. Used by the armies of Finland and Estonia. You might have to have a sheath made. I simply went into the box of sheaths and pulled out an inexpensive leather sheath for better retention. I have the Al Mars/original Ek knives. If this had been available 40 years ago, I would have bought this model first.
Great blade for the price 80crv2 carbon steel grippy handle I would have went with the kydex sheath though it would cost a hair more but it’s still $114 without engraving which I don’t like personally anyway. I did get my brother a knife as a gift for work and had his badge number engraved on it it though figured it would keep others cops from stealing it from him. It was the old ZT model 0700 tanto tip thick liner lock grippy G10 S30v. He still carries it as his work blade today and it’s close to a decade old. I dont think ZT even makes that model anymore. Anyway like the blade and its price.
Sheaths are very seldom talked about and very important if you actually carry your knife
Just bought the usmc coated m95. They really get us marines. Lol
Where can you buy this? Did I miss a link?
thats a freakin sweet knife but no belt clip on that rubber sheathe is actually dumb, you can always add a Velcro or paracord belt loop later...
is it full tang?
Goodmorning, I was wondering...is this knife comparable to a Coldsteel SRK?
I remember Ethan Becker saying something like no one buy a knife for the sheath. I completely disagree. A great knife can be easily spoiled by a cheap, flimsy sheath, (Tops comes to mind).
Is that why the Becker knives come with garbage sheaths by and large? 😂 Great knives though.
Every latino watching the first 3 seconds: whatchu call me homes!?
😂
I have a question. How they avoid that the knive cut that rubber thing over time? Does not seem a durable design
How does teflon meet food safety standards?
Pahh.. that is just an knife among simple knifes as made with the Swedish Mora koncept in mind.
My dad had an original Laponia style finnish knife that was an beast with an long strong slinky blade and it had an blood out grove in it as to make work easier. A shaft made of hard beerch ending in a hammer head shape hold by an petruding rod rounded on the top, smack that on someones head...
Them knifes where used in WWII.
I must have missed it, but i dont remember you saying what kind of steel it has.
80crv2
they are giving service knifes now? 1998 i had to have my own knife.
No theyre not
Hakkaa Päälle
Where can 1 purchase this knife?
Lamnia's usually a good source for the Fin blades.
DLT
Knife looks good.
Unfortunately, you mentioned it has a "rubberized" type grip.
That's all well and good, but in my experience, every "rubberized" type of anything, eventually crumbles, wears away, and completely falls apart over time.
what the cost in usd
105 with the plastic sheath, 120 for leather.
@@Quest723The thank you ....great video also
@@cherokeesurvival8340 No worries. (and not Sootch) :P
Make sure you look up the Varusteleka Terava blades too. They're beefier boys. M95's pretty sick though. Feels a lot like a glock field knife in hand. Blade profiles on the terava are very different though.
Nasty
SISU!!
The full size is baad.⚓️
Good looking knife. I'd like to get one, except that it's made out of that 8Cr Chinese stainless. That stuff is garbage.
80crV2 steel is produced in Germany, it is a carbon steel a little tougher than 1095 and keeps its sharpness a little longer, excellent steel
@johanesgo8096 my mistake. I was thinking of the 8cr13mov Chinese crap.
Hell,it looks good. But i miss the Handguard.
Cant find it in that color . 🙄
Pronuse it puuuuukko
Not for 120 bucks.
That’s right it’s not. It’s $105 with the sheath shown here. Knife Center has it for $99. Both of those prices are a good deal.
Ain't no puukko!
No puukko has that little hanging-down thingie, and the tang goes right through the handle...anyway, it's a field knife, but not a real puukko.
NATO approved. ooooooooooo! Ahhhhhhhhhhjh. Gimme a Morkniv any day.
Not even a relevant comparison. Not the same intended use.
Puukko in russian sounds like "Fartto".
Looks like a Mora on roids
Puukko means small knife. 🖖🏻
Plastik handle....🤮
When you say two times the same thing, you insult your audience.
NATO approved🤣🤣
Not a real Puuko blade at all !
Depends what you mean by “real”. It’s definitely not a traditional puuko with a birch handle and brass accents. It’s a much harder use knife with a high Scandi.
