Karesuando

Karesuando is a town in northern Sweden known for reindeer herding, fishing, and craftsmanship. Among the craftsmen are knife makers who have made this town famous with their products in the past, and traditional manufacturing methods are still adhered to today.

The company Karesuando, based in this town, produces knives and axes using traditional technology and methods. The stainless steel used for the blade is perfectly sharpened, and the manufacturer uses locally available materials for the handle, such as birch wood and reindeer antlers. The blade on the axes is sharpened to the extent that it can slice, and the equipment includes a leather sheath with the option to hang on a belt.

The Karesuando axes are beautifully crafted, exquisitely packaged, and their set includes a diamond sharpener for the blade. Axes are available in several sizes, are not large, easily portable, and serve well for camping, for cabin owners by the fireplace. Together with a knife, they delight hunters and are definitely a great gift.
