Rare 105mm TAPIO WIRKKALA PUUKKO in almost mint condition.
TAPIO WIRKKALA was an important finnish designer and artist. He designed this knife in 1961, wich quickly became a grail of modern cutlery. It has been produced in two dimensions, one with a blade of 105 mm and another with a shorter blade of 95 mm. This knife is exposed at the MoMA (Museum of Modern Art) in New York. I've never seen one in such good condition like this one, not live nor online. Buying this knife means getting in possession of a piece of history.
Puukko is a nordic word wich basically mean "knife". It is a simple and effecient knife style you can find in all scandinavian cultures. The design has remained the same for hundreds of years, it's kinda a living fossil of cutlery.
The knife will be securely packaged ad shipped worldwide.
