Roselli from Finland is one of the most authentic Scandinavian knifemakers, forging his elegantly simple tools from two kinds of carbon steel. Here we have a look at three general usage knives (Bearclaw, Carpenter, Grandfather) and we'll also examine the "Little Cook" kitchen knife

  • My dad uses knives, but dont know which one I should get him. Anyone give me a suggestion?

  • @rosamedina18 From this video, the Roselli Carpenter is very nice, traditional and universal. From my other videos, particular favorites is the Spyderco Moran (clip v=hkL6XxBf7i4 ), the G. Sakai GS-4 Sabi Knife 1 (clip v=NXNjsHTyFgw ). For folders check out the excellent and universal Spyderco Sage or Caly 3 (clip v=wcFBK1r-4B0 ), or perhaps something elegant from France that also looks good for eating at a chic table (clips v=92Bs0lUsHSI or v=IBxhFKIdZQ8 or v=m04Db1zeYkk or v=ip60zHN5_sE ).

  • When you buy one, how does it arrive in the box? Is it polished or waxed and wrapped in paper when you buy it, to stop rusting in storage?

  • @100trueneutral I think they arrived in the sheath (but can't remember for sure).

  • These are knock offs of marttini knifes

  • @SoMnOrWeGiaNkID Not at all, Scandinavian knives have a specific family style, and Roselli even looks more traditional than the other brands.

see all

  • @SoMnOrWeGiaNkID And it's Marttiini knives.

  • @SoMnOrWeGiaNkID Knock offs? These are hand made in Finland you motherfucker. The carpenter knife cost like 100€ when I first bought it and is still holding on after 5 yrs of very rigorous use.

  • wow! finally a beautiful review on the excellent Roselli knives. Didn't know the grandfather knife was quite so thick. Great review. And really loving the love you give to European knives. Thank you.

  • Very informative review! keep them coming!

  • ....And actually the "carpenter knife" is called that for a reason. If you go to a building site here you will find that every single construction worker is carrying a knife very similar to this, usually its the Mora knife, very cheap knife. These knives are used for everything from fitting stuff to electrical work. I guess the puukko is more of a real tool than anything else...still. :)

  • It doesn't get much more traditional than this, to go "more traditional" would just be a sharp rock :)
