Marttiini Knives

MARTTIINI - MADE IN FINNISH LAPLAND

It all began in 1928 at the land of dark Arctic winters and the midnight sun, when a blacksmith Janne Marttiini decided to establish knife factory to Rovaniemi in Finnish Lapland.

With the user in mind, he began to create beautiful, high quality utility articles to be used in the harshest conditions imaginable.

But don't let its beauty fool you. The moment you put one to a test, you're convinced it is the perfect tool for your need. You feel the sensation of natural materials like leather, curly birch, reindeer antler, and of course the ultra sharp blade always made from finest steel.

Marttiini knives are still manufactured at the Arctic Circle. Today they are a combination of generations of craftsmanship and modern technology that create knives that are not only sharp, but also perfectly represent the beauty and toughness of the North. They're called "puukko" – the Nordic knife.

MARTTIINI AND RAPALA

In the fall of 2005, the international fishing gear tackle corporation giant Rapala VMC LtdCorp. bought Marttiini Ltd.’s whole capital stock from Marttiini family. The trade aquisition strengthened Rapala’s position as number one in fishing equipment tackle worldwide, and hastened expedited the journey of Marttiini’s products to the world.
