Marjakaas refers to curly birch, which is a valuable wood material. Curly birch has dark streaks within the wood and is a popular material for decorative items. Each curly birch is unique in its pattern, just like this Marjakaas knife. The handle of the knife is made of beautiful heat-treated curly birch, adorned with light untreated curls, reindeer antler, and dyed birch veneer. The blade is a stunning 10 cm Damascus steel, and the black sheath is genuine leather.

These Unique by Marttiini knives are some of the most prestigious knives we have ever made. These knives are designed to be elegant and beautiful collectors items. Our skilled professionals have made this knife using exclusive materials selected solely for this knife.
At Marttiini, we have a long history with traditional materials from Finland, such as curly birch and reindeer antler bone. On these Unique knives, we combine these traditional materials in various ways to create a special design for each Unique knife.
The Damascus blade is made by combining two different types of steel in thin layers. The blade has 120 steel layers that have been welded together under extreme pressure and heat. The result is a beautifully patterned, stainless and very hard blade (HRC 60) that stays sharp even in extended use.
Every Unique by Marttiini knife is a one of a kind. They represent the beauty and toughness of the North.
