The Skinny Sloyd is a narrower version of the traditional sloyd knife, designed to give you a little more control when working in tighter areas and curves.
The slimmer blade is easier to maneuver while still giving you the length and strength you'd expect from a sloyd knife. It's a good choice for spoon carving, kuksa carving, and general wood carving where a wider blade can sometimes feel like too much knife.
Available with a straight or upswept blade. The straight blade is a good all-around choice, while the upswept profile works especially well for following curves and making slicing cuts.
Each blade is forged from W1 tool steel, heat treated and finished by hand in my shop.
Leather Sheath sold separately.

How We Make Carving Knives - Video
PLEASE remember you are ordering a hand made knife, not something stamped out by a machine.

The wood handle you see in the photo may not be the exact color and figure pattern you receive. Photo may not be actual size, please refer to given dimensions.
Our blades have a near mirror finish. This allows the blade to move through the wood smoothly. There may be tooling marks still on the blade which do not affect the performance of the knife.
Each knife is individually made and we make every effort to get your knife in the mail within 10 working days, this allows 4 days for shipping. So approximately 2 weeks, give or take a day or two. Please feel free to ask any questions before ordering: Send Us an Email
