well, yes, this Iissakki leuko is a beautiful well made knive, sharp and tough, with a blade thickness of 3 mm. I use it at home to slice bread and other jobs requiring a long and sharp blade.Not the greasy and dirty ones. The knife is a jewel. If one did brake, then it was certainly submitted to excessive abuse, trying to handle a job suited for an axe. After all knives are meant to cut things, soft things.
The Lauri blade, OTOH, has a thickness of some 4 mm and is a bit longer and heavier, making it a really tough heavy duty tool. Not very suited to be carried on your belt. Good for general work around the house (depends where your house is). Also very capable of shaving hairs from your arm.
