Skrama got it‘s new wooden handle out of curly birch wood. Dyed and oiled. Only a huge leather sheath needs to be done anymore! I can tell, tang of this blade was awfully long to get hidden inside wood and fitted almost perfectly there! 😅

Looks very nice. but i think i prefer the rubber grip for its shock absorbing qualities.

@buak 4 ай бұрын

Yeah. The new handle is awesome, but it is a downgrade on the original ergonomics. Rubber is awesome. Still, this looks a lot nicer than the original.

That looks incredible. The Skrama is IMO the ultimate do all blade. It’s plain no frills utilitarian looks are part of its charm I guess. But I love it so much I find myself wishing I could class it up/trick it out just a bit. A wooden handle like the one you made would be perfect. Last year they released an anniversary edition in stainless with a curly birch handle… for $350! Ugh, I’ll prolly wind up buying it someday 🤦‍♂️. I’d rather just have a wooden handle on the original.

@masterp6062 Жыл бұрын

Great job! Just finished one myself, but I cut the handle in 2 pieces and I milled the shape of the tang in the wood, and used epoxy to glue them together again. Worked great. Cheers

@thetopicala Жыл бұрын

Okay great! It’s totally different to do this in a way how you described it. Cheers!

@masterp6062 Жыл бұрын

Yes it is different, but I didn’t have the tools to make a hole in the wood for the tang, so I decided to cut the wood in half, milled it, and epoxied everything together again (lot of work, took me 2 days..). I would send you a picture, but I don’t know how..

@thetopicala Жыл бұрын

@@masterp6062 it would be very challenging to drill (a hole for tang) such a long way and using one ling drill bit. My hint to you and others is that use normal length drill bit and drill it from both ends of the wood block and finally finish the hole with mini saws (from both ends). 👍🏻

Attaching wood block into Skrama tang and make it carefully is hours of work, way longer than regular puukko rat tail tang and wood block. Fitting it in the front and end without loose… you can imagine.

@shawnpepin7890 Жыл бұрын

Been thinking about doing this to mine, but wondering if it still fits the sheath

@thetopicala Жыл бұрын

Make it fit. Just do the same size like original and it fits into original plastic sheath.

@@Pave1985 Kahdesta palasta teko on kyllä fuskua ja halvan näköinenkin! 😄 Vinkki; Tasalaatuiseen / mittaiseen palikkaan piirrät ruodon linjan päälle ja päihin ja teet hintsusti ylipitkän reiän ensin. Lopuksi muotoilet ensin toisen pään ja sitten toisen. Ruodon myhkyrät hiot suoraksi. Varot vain, että kummankaan reiän päät ei leviä kun tavoittelet materiaalia pois reiän keskeltä.
