Product description

Leather sheaths for various Jääkäripuukko knives. Simple, functional, and made in Finland just like Jääkäripuukko itself.

Our new and shiny webstore is up and running – in celebration, this product has a 20 % discount for two weeks (NOV 28 – DEC 11). The offer applies to items currently in stock. All opening offers can be found on this page.

The sturdy dangler leather sheath is built with a roomy plastic liner. The liner is roomy enough for water and crud to run through it and out the hole at the end. Around the mouth of the sheath, the leather is folded double, forming a strong and stiff wide band that is closed tightly around the grip using a press stud. When you pull out the knife, the edge runs nicely between the two leather sides without cutting it, which is a common downside of the traditional "sock" style puukko sheaths. Even without closing the press stud, the sheath retains enough tension to keep the puukko in place, so around camp, you don´t need to be opening and closing the sheath all the time, just remember to snap it shut when you're on the move!

Do not force the knife out of the sheath without opening the press stud! Although this can be done, it is not good for the press stud in the long run and may damage it. Just open the snap before pulling out the knife.

Oil the snap fastener once in a while to prevent it from becoming stiff and nasty.

Right or left?

The words "Right" and "Left" in the menu might confuse some folks, so let’s clarify it. It refers to your dominant hand, not the side of your body. You pull your knife out of the "Right" sheath with your right hand (normal grip), no matter where the sheath is – left side, right side, or on the front. The "Left" sheath works the same way for the left-handed folks.

If you prefer to pull your knife, e.g., with your right hand from the right side, with your knuckles between your body and the knife handle, only then take the "Left" sheath so the blade edge will face forward. Simple!

Sustainable leather

The leather of Terävä sheaths comes from Pelo Leather, a Finnish family-owned Central Ostrobothnian tannery founded in 1897. In addition to producing top-quality sheaths and leather with minimized waste and emissions, the company is respectful of the source of the raw materials: the animals and the nature in which they live.

Pelo Leather uses moose and yak hides provided by hunters and nomads, and cowhides that are a side product of the dairy and meat industries. The cowhides come from local abattoirs that have standards for ensuring the well-being of the animals. No animals are reared for the sole purpose of producing these leathers.

Their business quarter is 25 years, and a lot of effort is put into the processes and logistics of the business to provide a cleaner environment for future generations. We are proud to have their leather in our sheaths!

Purchased brown leather model for Jääkäripuukko 110. Possibly (probably) the best sheath in my entire collection. Fantastic quality of leather (unsure if it is yak or elk). The snap is a great idea and seems to work perfectly. Absolutely beautiful design and execution. I cannot overstate how impressed I am with this sheath. My compliments to the artisan who crafted it.

It's the sturdiest sheath that I've ever had, it's not even close. A bit hard to take the knife out at first but it should loosen up with use. Robust as hell itself.

I just received my sheath and the quality is as stated in the product description. I am very impressed with the quality of the leather and the craftsmanship. My knife fits snugly without the lock, so the lock is added security. Don't cheap out and buy the knife without the sheath (like I did!) Just purchase them together. You won't regret it.
