Marttiini has specialized in mid to mid-high quality hunting knives for European hunters and campers. Their knives are all in the Lapplander style, a very efficient design and popular with everyone who does not require a guard to keep fingers off the blade. Knives from Finland have always been noted for being both hard and tough.
In every nation there is always one cutlery firm that is the recognized leader! For many years the American leader was Case. Before Case it was Cattaraugus and after Case it was Schrade. In Germany, it was Puma and is now Boker. In England Joseph Rogers was followed by Wostenholm now replaced by Wilkinson. In Finland, for many years it has been J. Marttiini.
