The Benchmade 202 Leuku is a slightly longer knife in terms of size with a blade around 13 cm long, but in the context it is still a surprisingly light knife. The handle shape fits well in the hand and the material makes it feel like the risk of slipping in the grip is small, but I haven't tested the knife when it's cold and wet outside yet. The question, however, is how the material can withstand slightly harder use. The size makes the knife somewhat more unwieldy for finer carving work, and there the blade shape of the little brother Benchmade 200 Puukko is probably a better alternative, although in all honesty I didn't have the opportunity to test it. The advantage is that it is well suited for certain tasks such as making a fire, splitting wood. Benchmade Leuku is a good compromise if you intend to have this as the only knife with you into the forest. The sheath feels stable and grips the knife so well that it is sometimes a little difficult to get it out of the sheath. It will probably get better once I've worn in the knife and sheath. Overall, I am very happy with the knife.

An impressive whole, the Finnish hand-made silver carbon steel quality knife blade is, however, an even higher quality powder steel.

The size of the knife is quite suitable for general use in the forest, but for the name jauku it is quite small. The knife became sharp and the Cpm 3v steel holds the blade for a long time. Hamara is not good for scraping a ferrocerium rod, but I sharpened it to a 90-degree angle and at the same time convex the blade mouth. Very good knife.

All you can say is that a really good knife.
