What is Bog Oak? Bog Oak is not a species of tree, rather it is a term given to the oak found in the peat bogs of Great Britain and Ireland. Low oxygen conditions in peat bogs help preserve the wood from normal decay, and the acidic conditions combine with the natural tannins in the wood to give Bog Oak its distinctive and pleasing colour. It is essentially in the early stages of fossilisation, and many samples of Bog Oak are hundreds if not thousands of years old. A very sought-after material indeed.
KEY FEATURES
Ideal Blade for Splitting Wood The 4mm thick steel is perfectly suited for heavy-duty tasks like batoning, offering you strength and durability when it is needed.
Built to LastThe strong, full-tang construction ensures the knife provides unwavering reliability in the great outdoors. Even in the event of a handle break, a full-tang knife can still be easily used. The stable Scandi grind is perfect for carving or splitting wood.
Ergonomic Handle The distinct handle design has been given a lot of thought. It allows you to easily identify the knife's orientation by feel alone, ensuring safe and efficient use in the field.
Superior Blade Performance Made from rugged Sleipner carbon steel, the blade holds an edge and is easy to sharpen and strop in the field. Casström blades are all cryo-quenched too, which enhances wear-resistance and helps fulfill the true potential of the steel.

A solid, versatile and beautifully made Knife
Bought to replace my old workhorse. Very impressed so far, a brilliantly versatile and Hardy knife, holds an edge well and can handle heavy duty tasks like battening but equally suited to fine work. Together with the ferro rod, they've made easy work of firelighting

Fantastic knife
I have had my knife about 18 months now and last year I used the knife on a Ray Mears Bushcraft course for a week. I used the knife all day everyday, it was a joy to use, it did everything comfortably it was required to do. It was much admired on the course.
I do a lot of spoon/bowl making, bushcraft skills and fire lighting with my blade. It does everything I need, up to needing to get an axe out.
It feels a big knife at first, I started with a smaller different company Swedish knife brand, when I moved up to this knife it was a bit intimidating. But after respecting the knife and learning it, it actually feels perfect size in my hand for bushcraft use. Solid dependable, comfortable and easy to use. It really is a beautiful knife and a joy to use.
The sheath is well made, I got the one without the fire starter, it polishes up beautifully with the casstrom Lapland leather was, a lovely deep rich colour. It holds the knife well and does not slip out.
I am very happy with the knife and sheath, I will use and treasure them for a very long time. I made the right choice when purchasing this.
In the photo, the blade is currently being resharpened with Japanese water stones, after damage from a hidden nail in a bit of wood.

Great pocket knife
I wanted a EDC knife I could carry out walking/hiking/bushcraft or in my hand bag, just a good solid dependable blade that was good quality, a beautiful product that I would cherish and look after. It has exceeded my expectations, it’s a beautiful handle and blade. Oiled the wood and blade and shines its lovely pattern, it is a joy to use, very sharp. The blade is good quality sturdy design and compliments the larger Lars Fält fixed blade knife.
I also got the leather belt pouch for it, it fits like a glove and compliments the knife beautifully. Very happy with both items. I don’t use the leather strap - personal choice.
I cannot recommend this knife enough, money well spent.

Perfect everyday sharpener.
Wow what a great little sharpener. Perfect straight out of the box.
I am a busy scout leader and find this sharpener fits inside my leather man holder.
Used the first time to put the edge back onto my leather man and now use every time to keep my edges sharp.
Nice and easy to use great bit of kit for the price.

Lars Fault knife and sheath
In a single word Excellent !
A top quality blade beautifully made.
I had to buy a replacement sheath because mine came with a big slash 3 inches long and was unusable, …. This how ever was NOT supplied by Casström but By a dealer knives&tools.
Everything Casstrom I own knife, sheaths, wax , strop and fire steel is by far the best I’ve ever had ….

This was bought for a family member primarily for gralloching. I did so for 3 reasons. The updated stainless steel (do your research), the ornamental value, and the life time warranty. This is a good looking knife, however I can tell you nothing about gralloching.
A very good blade, a beautiful sheath and hilt. I bought this as part of a Finnish ww2 uniform and it is perfect. Would recommend to anyone who likes cooking or camping.
