  • In this video I make a puukko knife from a finnish puronvarsi knife blade and a sheath for it.
    Knife handle is made out of reindeer antler, vulcanized fiber, wenge (dark wood) and curly birch. The staple at the end of the knife is brass. Sheath is made out of self colored veg tan leather, curly birch and brass.
    I hope you like the video and thanks for watching!

    There is something special about puukkos that no other knives can touch. I have several. Thanks 🔪

    3:48, I recently had to make one of these for a puronvarsi knife I was building, except I held the stupid thing with my fingers and used a belt sander and the table. Dunno why I didn't think to use pliers, I somehow managed not to remove my fingertips. Gonna remember this. Good looking knife and sheath btw. The sheath is great!

    Hello my name is Des and I am from Australia. I have just watched your video for the third time and I am amazed at how beautiful the knife you have made is. I was wondering if it would be possible to buy one of these knives from you I would love to try and make one for myself but unfortunately I am visually impaired and cannot see well enough for it, if I could purchase one from you or get you to make one for me that I could purchase I would think that was fantastic. Once again. Your knife is a thing of beauty. Looking forward to hearing from you Des.

    I wouldn’t have chosen wenge as a spacer which is an African wood but the whole build looks beautiful… a few mistakes that might get your knuckles slapped but the results are gorgeous… something about puuko

    Hi! Gorgeous knife and knife sheath! Im somewhat new to knifemaking and have one question; did you not glue between the Wood and the leather? Is that not necessary? Again Very cool looking knife!💯 12:34

    • @kiehicraft
      @kiehicraft  Před rokem +2

      Thanks! Actually I put a little bit of glue between the leather and the wood. Glue is not necessary in the case where deep grooves are made in the wooden part, where the wet leather is pressed and sewed tightly. When the leather dries it tightens tightly around the wood and into the groove. But one way or another, the glue makes the joint more secure :)

      I lived in Fairbanks, Alaska on the Chena River. Fairbank's sister city is Yakutsk, on the Lena River. ... During the Iraq War, an Aeroflot airliner flew a delegation of Yakutians to Fairbanks on a visit of brotherhood and peace. ... The Yakutian teen age girls looked just like native Alaskan eskimo teen age girls. It's obvious that there was once a migration of the people across the Bering Sea. ... Take good care my friend.

    Did you glue the leather on the wood for the sheath? If yes, what kind of glue?
    Otherwise, how is it holding together?

      @@diagorasmoustakas249 I think there is many reasons for that. One reason is on the intended use. Full tang knives can handle tougher handling than normal puukko. Some might like more the looks of the puukko, like I do. Do you like more full tang knives?
