Kees,

Gorgeous knife (nice picture, too!)...was it crafted from one piece of steel? And what is the wood, ebony? I'm probably wrong again, as I guess that the beautiful wood on Data's knife was olive...wrong! So what is that handle made of?

Kees!  Wow!  Just freakin' wow!  I am liking Marttiini.

Moras and Martinis ate both great knives, and affordable. they do make some exspesive ones too. If you go to a gun show you can ussually find a dealer with an assortment of either or both nrands. . Martinin has been around for a long time.

Thanks for that info dead guy.  I did not know that Rapala had its root with Marttiini.  I have my dads Rapala but it's still in my fishing box.  No telling how old it is, but I still use it.

Unfortunately the only exposure most of us in the US have to Marttiini knives is the fillet knives they make for Rapala & sell at Target, Wal-Mart, Dick's & Cabela's.  On a lark I decided to request a catalog, so I went to their website, which told me they had a lot more to offer, & then they sent me this really nice full color catalog with a bunch of different models.  They have more knife models than many other Scandinavian makers, & a much larger variety than Mora.  

One of my best knife-related memories involved looking through that catalog, with my younger son, maybe 4 months old at the time, being fascinated by the images.

Oh, & that Raven (below) is also full tang (though probably not quite as rugged as the new Mora Garberg)!  :)

I had never even heard of Marttiini knives before I saw this, but I like my Mora knives and this obviously has the same style as Morakniv.  I'm still excited about the full tang Mora that they announced at SHOT show - that hasn't come out yet - but now I think I need to find out more about these Marttiini knives.  It is just darned good looking in person.   :-)

Jan - I like your idea of oiling it.  I may do that.  The steel just says "INOX" which, of course, is French for Stainless Steel.  The word INOX doesn't really give me much information.  But you know, for a $30 knife I still think I scored pretty well.
