Making puukko knife for sloyd and bushcraft

I hand forge a traditional Scandinavian knife and carve a handle and a wooden sheath. No power tools. Open the full video description for more information.
I use a piece of coil spring from a car and ash wood from the local forrest. I am going to use the knife in future videos mainly for doing sloyd/wood carving, but also just bushcraft in general.
---------------------------
Materials: Spring steel, ash wood, cow leather, tung oil, bank line.
---------------------------
A few quick questions:
1.What is "puukko"?
"puukko" is Finnish and translated to English is it "knife"/"belt knife". Internationally refer "puukko" to a specific style of traditional Scandinavian style belt knifes. It's often internationally referred to as a "puukko knife" and not just "puukko" even though you can argue that "puukko knife" means if translated "knife knife". Adding "knife" just make sure that people internationally don't need to translate the Finnish word "puukko" before understanding it's a knife.
2. Do you sell?
No. Don't sell anything.

My dad passed recently and wanted us to blacksmith together. Watching your videos has inspired me to make my own shop. Last week, I made my first knife with a sheath using hand tools. It was an accomplishment. I know I made my dad proud. Thank you for what you do.

Historically, real tools were rarely shiny. If shinyness had no practical purpose the time spent on making the tool shiny was a waste of time and effort that for example could be better spent by using the tool for what it was made for.

@@jamesaritchie1 Yes shinyness has a purpose where it has a purpose. If not, like in most cases for bushcrafting and allround use in the outdoors the shine does not have more purposes than using silver inlayed ebenholtz as material in for the sheath and handle instead of using simple birch wood or even pine wood. By the way, this knife in the video seems to be very well made allthough not very much job or time is spent on the esthetics. The steel is forged by the book, shaped to the shape it was intended and then annealed by the book. Many youtube knifemakers has some things to learn from this video. Then the handle is made from whatever suitable piece of wood the knifemaker could find where he was and it is shaped to a good usable shape. Lastly, allso the sheath is made from whatever suitable piece of wood the knifemaker could find where he was and it is allso shaped puprosely to only be a sheath (not a bling-bling eye catcher). This is all what this video is about, making an old style knife roughly the same way the Finnish peasants made them 100-200-300 or 400 years ago. No more, no less. Esthetics simply didn't have any purpose at all if you spend all your working days in the woods or out in the crop field, therefore in most cases no or very little effort was put into estethics in the knife. I mean would a poor farmer of todays world (for example in Uganda) spend x hours or 3 times x hours on making the knife - the answer undoubtably is that he spends only x hours on making the knife and then starts using it to earn food and money for his family. I can assure you, theese knifes were not only good for carving wood or bread, more than one Russian soldier died from theese knives in the Swedish-Finnish wars against Russia. Yes there are much more refined examples of the Puukko knife but mostly those are of modern make or made for the richest of the rich back in the time.

(Finnish schools have like 3 classes in 8th and 9th grade that you can choose) I don't know if any other schools have this class in their schools, but our school has a "Puukko course" where we learn the basics of making a knife and making our own Puukkos, and I'm so excited to make my own next year, I just love watching knives being made and decided to choose the class so I can learn to make one myself.

I am jealous! Here in the USA the authorities are so fearful middle and high school kids are not allowed even t have a pocket knife anymore. In the 70's I always had a pocket knife and a lighter. Most did. No one got stabbed or slashed. Always had a sharp pencil. Lighter was to light that found/ or purchased firework. Which are outlawed too. In metal shop we were not allowed to make anything knife like.

Here's some tips for getting the knife secure in those types of sheaths. Line the inside where the handle is with thin leather, no scratch marks from the wood and a better fit if done right. Secondly, saw from the top down the sheath on the side that the knife spine is. Down to about when the handle ends in the sheath. Then pull those edges together a bit when adding the leather that goes on the outside to make it tighter and also give it a bit of stretch that way.
