The "Holy Grail" of Finnish Filleting Heritage.
Offered here is an extraordinary, investment-grade example of the legendary J. Marttiini Fillet Knife. Unlike modern retail versions, this is an authentic mid-century Finnish "Puukko" style fillet knife, hand-crafted in the Arctic Circle (Rovaniemi, Finland) during the golden era of the Marttiini factory.
• The Maker: Janne Marttiini founded his factory in 1928, blending traditional Sámi craftsmanship with specialized steel. In 1967, the factory received the "President’s Export Award" in Finland for the global impact of this specific knife design.
• The Blade: Features the rare, deep-etched script: "J. Marttiini, Finland, Hand Ground Stainless." The blade shows the characteristic "needle-point" profile and extreme flexibility that made Marttiini world-famous.
• The Handle: Carved from Lapland Birch, seasoned and varnished to resist moisture, featuring the original Marttiini "Lynx" or "Salmon" stamp.
• The Sheath: Genuine deep-embossed Finnish leather with traditional "basket-weave" and geometric "Lapp" patterns. The leather remains supple, with the signature "Finland" stamp clearly visible.
