1930's Finnish Lisakki Jarvenpaa Puukko knife...
Blue Galalite handle. Knife's in excellent condition, no cracks. Galalite is a bioplastic which was developed at the end of the 19th century. It is made by immersing the naturally derived milk protein casein in formaldehyde. The name Galalite derived from the Greek words gala (milk) and lithos (stone). They are exceptionally versatile knives that were usually made by highly skilled craftsman whose skills were passed down through the generations. After World War II, Galalite was widely replaced by petroleum-based plastics.
The Iisakki Järvenpää Company was founded in 1879 and made knives until 1939. The Company was the largest manufacturer of knives in Kauhava, Finland![]()
