Justin Burns' Julius Pettersson Knife

The following entry was kindly provided by Woodlorean Justin Burns, who made his own handle for the Julius Pettersson Knife Blade:
Hi all, After browsing your website it got me thinking about making my own Julius Pettersson knife handle. I loved the idea of having a handle that you could put your own stamp on.

I have made many knife handles before, yet I loved having a blade made by such a talented craftsman.

It is shaped in a similiar manner to that of the Ray Mears Bushcraft Knife.

The knife is designed to endure all different elements over a lifetime. Thanks for the opportunity to own such a knife! Justin Burns
