The finger-guarded Moose Hunt is a model derived from the popular 1920s Hirvijahtipuukko. It features a long 15 cm blade and a finger guard on the handle to prevent the index finger from slipping onto the blade. The blade is made of stainless steel, which is easy to maintain. The handle is lacquered curly birch with a burnt-in image of a moose. Between the handle and the blade, there is a flat nickel silver bolster. The Moose Hunt with finger guard can also be chosen without the moose image on the handle.
The Moose Hunt is designed to function as a stabbing knife for moose hunters, and its long blade is also useful on hiking trips and around the campfire. For other game and hunting purposes, we also recommend our shorter-bladed models, such as the Aito or the Game Knife. However, the Moose Hunt is certainly an impressive companion around the fire.
The sheath design has remained unchanged for over a hundred years, and it is available in both light or dark brown. The sheath is fully stitched and features a subtle, embossed decorative pattern. A metal reinforcement is added to the tip. The sheath is made of domestically sourced vegetable-tanned leather.
This knife is also available in its original version without the finger guard on the handle, under the name Moose Hunt. In addition to the differently shaped handle, the original Moose Hunt Knife’s sheath also includes decorative leather tassels.
