Knife making - Puukko

[@midwestmaniack]

This was inspiring. The craftsmanship that goes into projects like this is on another level. I wish i had skills like this. To make something beautiful out of nothing.

[@RustLegion]

thank you , it is indeed great joy to make things with your hands. Even if it is something simple.

As a fellow knife maker, I'm not easily impressed, 😯👍 but this is amazing! Thanks for sharing. WOW!

[@ЮрийАрсентьев-и2п]

Блестяще выполненная работа! Отдельная благодарность за доступное изложение процесса Мастеру Респект!!!

[@johnhelms8226]

This is really impressive. It is very true to the art and craftsmanship of a genuine Finnish puukko, and especially to its heritage. Skill is one thing, but expressing an appreciation of the cultural significance is another level. Respect.

[@АлександрНиколаевич-ч2ч]

Одно из лучших творений из тех, что я видел на подобную тему.

[@GlarusGaming]

This looks fantastic. Even though the decoration on the sheath is simple, it's still very beautiful and stylish. Great job and keep em coming. The part where you heat the knife, before quenching is like a movie: 2:00 - 2:08

[@timgarec6240]

Very very well done. I really love the attention and drive put into making all fittings. The finished product is stunning but also looks like it calls to be used in the wild:)

[@tango-bravo]

One of the finest demonstrations of the Scandinavian style I’ve seen done on video. Well done 👍

[@RustLegion]

thank you , I still have much to improve compared to the great Finnish masters in the craft but it was fun and I learned a lot :)

[@ITALJUTE]

That is a seriously beautiful knife. To say it is your first attempt at a puuko is astonishing. Brother, I would be proud to have a knife half as good as that in my collection.

[@RustLegion]

it is my first attempt at Kauhava puukko , but I made many simple puukko s before :) And thank you for the nice comment :)

[@lonkero]

Im from Northern Sweden/Suomi and i would be PROUD TO have that Puukko hanging in my belt!!❤ Supernice job my man!!👍👍

[@RustLegion]

Thank you :) I have great respect for Scandinavian knife designs and I'm happy that you like the end result :)

[@goodravensforge]

Your craftsmanship is stunning! I am definitely going to use this for reference and inspiration for my next puukko style build. Even for other knife builds, there are things here I have learned and can apply. Thank you for sharing and teaching!

[@RustLegion]

I'm glad that I inspired you to try new stuff. Check out the 2 sources in the description that helped me. And thank you for the nice words :)

[@spolyakovlutsk]

Bravo, Mr.Popov! Your experience is worth of following. I saw the film for lots of times myself but didn't dare to repeat. Maybe I was wrong. What you did is really inspiring, for you showed that no special secret exists. Thank you for a lessson!

[@RustLegion]

Thank you for this nice comment sir. I am happy that my video motivate you to try it out. Good luck :)

It is an example of outstanding knife making craftsmanship.

[@RustLegion]

thank you :)

[@chinchin2980]

Never seen someone on KZbin do a Kauhavan style Puukko before, very cool and definitely a good job if it's your first time making such a style.

[@RustLegion]

thank you,glad you enjoyed my interpretation of this beautiful design :)

[@ershvv7567]

Хоть финки не сильно нравятся, эта прям супер!!!респект!!!

[@jankokuu]

Im from finland where the puukko knife is used and its really nice to see videos that are related to finland and finlands traditional items. You succesfully made beautiful modern knife while keeping the traditional puukko look.

[@RustLegion]

Thank you very much. I have big respect and fascination with Finnish knives. So many beautiful designs and very practical. I still have much to learn but I'm glad you like it :)

[@DH-xw6jp]

Very beautiful, the way you made brass fittings was very nice. I think this has inspiered me to etch my next knife.

[@danielcharbonneau222]

I don't know, I think it was excellent and just a beautiful piece of art! Very well done video. Your skill is what others thrive for.

[@RustLegion]

Thank you for the nice words :)

[@richerworldproductions]

I have plans to make a Puukko in the near future, and wanted to say the things you did here were so amazing. Not only a GREAT knife, but your leather and brass work are so nice!! Subscribed!

Greetings from Finland👋 I love the videos you make and it is su fun people to make knives like ours (I would say you did it better than us here in Finland😅)

[@RustLegion]

Thank you :) I am very happy to hear that someone from Finland liked my puukko :) I am big fan of all puukko knives - modern puukko, saami puukko , Kauhava , Rautalampi , Kokemaki and so much more that I don't even know the names. It is simple and functional knife and at the same time very beautiful. Sending my best regards from Bulgaria :)

[@samueljussila]

[@RustLegion]

Thank you sir , yes the original model is 100 mm blade and mine is 125 mm. I would like to make one in the original size too but sure this one is very useful for more serious tasks :)

[@BruhoRosh]

Здравствуйте! Чудесная работа 👍 Необычный подвес, прекрасные формы ножен. Рукоятка из бересты - это кайф. Интересно, как Вы готовите её. Вдохновения и плодотворных дней!

[@RustLegion]

Здравствуйте, спасибо за хороший комментарий. Я пользуюсь гугл-переводчиком, поэтому не могу понять, в чем именно заключается ваш вопрос о бересте. может быть, если вы напишете это по-другому, я смогу перевести его и ответить на него. Хороший день для тебя

[@BruhoRosh]

@@RustLegion , приветствую! Процесс пропитки бересты интересен. Для того, что бы береста стала долговечной, её пропитывают разными веществами. У некоторых мастеров это секрет, потому, не требую ответа. Кто-то обходится без пропитки и использует только клей.

[@RustLegion]

@@BruhoRosh Береста полна натуральной смолы и устойчива к воде. Его не нужно клеить. Клей только делает его тяжелым и твердым. Если он хорошо сжат, это хорошо. Его можно нагреть до 70 С и сжать. Я использую тунговое масло, чтобы закончить это. :)

That is awesome!! You've got some skills brother!! Keep it up n you are going places!

[@designated_hitter_EGA]

Outstanding craftsmanship! I'm sorry, if you said it, I missed it. What type carbon steel did you use for the blade? Instead of making a "dummy" knife, couldnt you wrap the actual knife in plastic food wrap instead to form the sheath?

[@RustLegion]

I used k510 steel , also known as silversteel or 1.2210 . I made a dummy knife because I had to wrap the brass brace around it and I was afraid that it will damage the birch bark. I guess it can be done without it but I decided to follow the Kustaa Lammi video.

[@designated_hitter_EGA]

@@RustLegion Great Work! Thank you, your response is appreciated.

[@mynamingislackluster3710]

Awesome work! If you want to make similar(ish) puukkos in the future the Kalajokilaakso, Rautalammi and the 19th-centuty foundry puukkos (Fiskars and Hackman) are worth checking out. Anssi Ruusuvuori has made a fantastic and quite comprehensive book on puukkos, it even has some obscure puukko-types included. I think you would find it interesting/useful, but I'm not sure if it's available in english (there's a german version though).

[@RustLegion]

hello there , sorry for the late reply , yes I have this book. I recently bought it - very interesting indeed

Great job! Greetings from Kauhava city ♦️♦️♦️

[@RustLegion]

Hello there , much respect for the craftsmen from your city :)

[@Ramash440]

"After watching 2 million times the Kauhava puukko video I decided to make one" We've all been there... well, except 99% of us don't have forges so the thoughts will remain a fantasy.

[@RustLegion]

I use wood liners for my puukko sheaths. Here I put leather welt to protect the thread from the edge. Also there is a bit of space between the sheath and the blade so it doesn't cut it :)

Idon,t know, maybe it's just an impression but aren't your blades a bit thick ?

[@RustLegion]

Yes it is. Around 4.7 mm thick at the base and tapers towards the point. The whole knife is larger than the typical kauhava puukko (or similar models) . In future I plan to make smaller model with 10cm blade instead of 12 and thinner blade (around 4 mm)
