Lucas Forge Posted on by

Hello everyone! Today we have a photo comparing the two lengths and grind options that are offered for a custom Vintage Nessmuk knife from Lucas Forge so you can see how they measure up!

Vintage Nessmuk Knife, Nessmuk Knife, What's the Best Nessmuk Knife?, Historic Knife Design, Hunting Knife, Lucas ForgeThe Vintage Nessmuk comes standard with an overall length of approximately 8 3/4 inches, including the sweeping 4 1/4-inch blade. This standard length is the second knife pictured above. This knife also features the convex grind that comes standard for the Vintage Nessmuk. Above it, an additional, larger size is shown, which is approximately 9 1/2 inches overall, with a 5-inch blade. This example has the custom flat grind.

Both of these knives feature walnut handles, brass hardware, and aged blade finishes. This is a super-cool outdoor knife with such a rich, historical background!
