Does anyone here have any experience with the Frost of Sweden laminated blades offered for knife making? Any advice concerning these would be appreciated.

Dewman,
I have been carrying one to shows for about a year with no takers and not too many lookers. I was always under the impression that the laminated steel was really good, but I must have been the only one with that idea.
Maybe someone here will be able to educate us a little on them.

I've heard good things about them, being of Scandavian descent (Finnish actually my Grandfather was from the Laplands) most of my Grandfather's family coming through Ellis Island in 1911.

I like making Puukko's (pronounced Paco like Taco as in Taco Bell

) and I have a few to make on that list of mine, just found some stabilized cedar that I will buy, kinda of a neat twist I think.

One of these days I do plan on picking one up. Wish I knew more, I think there are a couple good links for them.

I can't really give you any kind of definitive answer...

...but this site is a treasure of information on the "Mora" knives, as well as other knives, like Tacos...er, ah, Pacos...#@$%^&##!...Puukkos!!

Besides, we all know that Hukk is the top Finn here...
