One knife that isn't going to be knocked around in the woods🤣. Though it's probably had quite a bit of that already. Thanks for watching Woods, you have a great weekend mate.
Your not having it, I have seen what you do to knives 🤣. This one is not for using, just a piece of local history. I wish I knew how old it was and who made it. Looks homemade. Thanks for watching Gruggs. Have an awesome weekend mate.
The grind is really quite uneven 🤣. Definitely home made. I bet that steel is from some kind of a saw blade. Really quite different. Maybe I will have a go at making another wooden sheath one day. I can't believe how this guy went about it, one piece but another piece of wood on top. Thanks for watching mate, have a fantastic weekend
As always, great video! I really like the sheath,I made a similar one for a carving knife a few years ago. Sami knives are a work horse,but,at the same time,a piece of art with the makers on touch... Always looking forward to the next video
Thanks Joe, knives here always needed to be practical. I think the amazing artwork on them comes from keeping busy during the long dark winter (just my theory). Thanks for stopping by, have a fantastic weekend.
Right on, great find Tim. As for the wooden sheath, maybe who ever made them had a blank that they would heat up cherry red and used it to burn a imprint into the wood??? Nice piece for your collection my friend.
Nice knife . I also like antler handles but they r 2 slippery 4 my climate ..heavy humidity n summer n a dew every morning . Have a great day n tell uni i said no worries !
I think Unni doesn't want to be disturbed at the moment. Asleep in her bed next to a bone and her ball. She spent last night guarding my tarp in the snow, from what I am not too sure. Or maybe she was just looking for squirrels 🤣. Thanks for watching mate.
It's really beautiful mate, we are very close to the border here. It's like Finland only with mountains. Hopefully I will film some stuff there one day. Thanks for watching mate.
Thanks Trev, there is a fantastic tradition of knife making in Lapland with some very unique knives. I just wish I knew how old this one is. Thanks for watching.
Me neither, something home made by someone with time on their hands probably. I would love to learn how he did it. I can't imagine any way that wouldn't involve a lot of work. Maybe there is something I don't know 😂. Thanks for watching mate.
God knows, drilling chiseling and burning I guess. He managed to break through the surface a couple of times, hence the filler. I think the how is easier to explain, than the why🤣. Thanks for watching Chris
I could be missing something with my dodgy old eyes, but I think that is in the grain of the wood. At least I am sure that the clearest line I can see is after looking all around the sheath. The only question I have is why isn't it a clanshell construction? Surely it would many times easier. Thanks for watching the video my friend.
@@KuukkeliBushcraft my thought exactly: it would be easier for me to make a clamshell with a barely perceptible join than to hollow one like that out. Perhaps it is old enough that there weren't any glues yet available that wouldn't be susceptible to humidity (such as hide glue) so the best way to ensure stability was to make it integral.
@@KuukkeliBushcraft well sir I declare, great minds... In case I haven't already performed my grift here, I have just begun uploading amateur (shoddy) blade content to my channel which by a slim chance might amuse you. There's a thumbnail with a Puukko that I'd like you to see, "Storytime with Cherry Burl". The blade was ground out of an 80's Stanley USA chisel, the burl came from a neighbour, the lilac pins from my yard and the bone I stole from my dogs. It was so white and flawless.
Very nice knife, thanks for sharing YAH bless !
Thanks Michael, God bless you.
Very interesting knife and sheath. Thanks for showing it.
Thanks for watching mate. Something a bit different that I thought you guys might like.
That is indeed something very different. And very cool! Never seen Sami knife quite like that.
Thanx for sharing it Tim!
Me neither at least not all wood.
Thanks for stopping by mate.
Really cool knife and sheath !! Thanks for showing us Tim 😊
Glad you liked it Mate. Thank you very much for stopping by.
A great addition to anyones collection!...thanks for sharing...woods

Thanks for watching Woods, you have a great weekend mate.
👍 Very interesting knife & sheath. I agree, if only this artifact could talk there would probably be a few interesting stories. Thank you for sharing.
I always like old stuff for that reason. Mind you this knife would only speak Saami and Norwegian 🤣.
Thanks for watching mate.
Thumbs up for sure! Awesome knife!
Your not having it, I have seen what you do to knives 🤣. This one is not for using, just a piece of local history. I wish I knew how old it was and who made it. Looks homemade.
Thanks for watching Gruggs. Have an awesome weekend mate.
That's really cool! Talk about traditional craftsmanship! Wow! Gorgeous! Interesting video as usual, brother!! 🤘
Thanks Matt, really quiet a unique piece. I wish I knew how old it was .
Thanks for watching mate.
Have a great weekend.
That's a cool old knife. Looks to me to be totally handmade - grind being so uneven.
If that blade could only talk....
Great vid, Tim. Cheers!

I think a combination of drilling burning and chiseling. I guess we will never know for sure. Thanks for stopping by Dan. Have a great weekend mate.

Very cool knife and sheath. My grandfather was born in Norway and I hope to visit someday.

Wow, very nice!!
Pretty isn't she? 😀 Thanks for watching mate. Have a great weekend.
That was very interesting Tim, nice bit of history.

Thanks for watching.

It's an interesting piece I wish I knew how old it was. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend.

👏👏👏👏
Thanks mate.
Seems hard work to make the sheath out of one piece, never seen that before.
Me neither, something home made by someone with time on their hands probably. I would love to learn how he did it. I can't imagine any way that wouldn't involve a lot of work. Maybe there is something I don't know 😂.
Thanks for watching mate.
Cool
Merci beaucoup mon ami.
Very nice
Thank you my friend. Glad you liked it. Have a great weekend.
wicked awesome!!!!! im jealous. i need to get over to Finland
You should, it's a nice place to be. Also a long history of knife making. Lots of small scale knife manufacturers and hobbyists.
Claiming the first LIKE on this vid. One piece of wood? How do you do that?
God knows, drilling chiseling and burning I guess. He managed to break through the surface a couple of times, hence the filler.
I think the how is easier to explain, than the why🤣.
Thanks for watching Chris
I'm seeing a clear seam around the sheath, off centre. I suspect that it is a clamshell construction.
I could be missing something with my dodgy old eyes, but I think that is in the grain of the wood. At least I am sure that the clearest line I can see is after looking all around the sheath.
The only question I have is why isn't it a clanshell construction? Surely it would many times easier.

@@dongkhamet1351 I was wondering the same about the glue. I just can't come up with any other explanation really.

@@dongkhamet1351 stealing from your dogs 🤣. Will check it out mate.
Could you. Make an axe.
I have hafted quite a few but forging the head would be far beyond my metal working skills.
