How to make a Whistle

[@Zedoutdoors]

So thats where the saying comes from :) Great walk through Ben so thank you for sharing this informative tutorial ~Peace~

[@randomfox9970]

Very interesting content dude but what knife you using looks great as a whittling branches knife to make my spoons and other tasks skining squirrels and rabbits for pot yum 💪🐺🐾👌💕

[@danizarnika7293]

halo Ben, i am from jawa island Indonesia. nice whistle and also the pocket knife.. a lot of bamboo over here, i will try with it. thank you..

[@treborrrrr]

Reminds me of when I was a kid and an elderly neighbour taught me how to do this some 25 or so years ago. He also showed me a variation of this where you use a much thicker branch, cut the end flat, cut the "mouth piece" off, drill a hole in it, use a couple of small nails to re-attach it to the bark and now you have a water squirter :D

[@Katirne]

Interesting idea!

[@adel-a]

Thanks for sharing. Very useful.

[@IsADasign]

Made one of these today for my son with one of your field knifes. I couldn't get a whistle from it but gave it to my son and I think his much slabbering in it probably took care of the wooly bits and he got it to whistle. Tomorrow we are going to use sycamore.

[@BenOrford]

IsADasign that’s great. Yes clean cuts are important for sure to get it to work. Funnily enough I made one from sycamore the other day on a walk. The sap is flowing well and the bark came off easily. Hope you get good results with it. cheers Ben

[@mtnman4766]

Sweet little craft Ben! Took me back over 60 years when my Grandpa made one for me when I was about 10. I couldn't remember how he did it. Now I can give it a try. Thanks for the great memory. Also was watching to see if you were going to take care of that sharp branch stub. Good job! Great woods craft! I'm a new subscriber and really enjoying your channel.

[@Claudiomarsantos]

[@DarrelCarson]

My dad taught me how to make willow whistles when I was about seven years old; now I teach my grand sons how to make them.

[@ChristianEide]

[@TheNoizepolution]

[@GreedyGabriel]

[@JackGilbertJr]

I literally was about to do type that. lol

[@BenOrford]

Well we don’t need anymore willow here at the moment but just advising that’s what you can do 👍

[@MrHatManS]

Noice, simply described thanks.

[@patriciusvunkempen102]

how do you have a knoife in britain? do you have a loicense?

[@randomfox9970]

You don't needs a license a UK legal knife is 3 inches or under non locking or fixed blade like a sheath knife special legitimate reason for carry a Lock knife would be your work or hobby in this case bushcraft ?😉💪🐺🐾👌💕

[@nicholashoffmann7999]

What knife are you using

[@timothywilson4598]

I’m having trouble getting the bark off. Does anyone have any ideas how to get it off?

[@BenOrford]

TimGames well if your trying to take it off this time of year you will struggle. Maybe soak it for a day in some water that may work. Best to wait till the sap rises again. 👍
