    Dad taught me this over 50 years ago... use to take great pride as a child making them with my jack-knife and giving them to friends... thanks for the memories.

    thank you for reminding me of my childhood , my grandfather made many toys for us , one being a willow whistle . as well being from the outer islands in a small fishing community I learned as a child many useful and fun knots which I still use 60years later . thank you very much once more ⚓

      As said, this is something every grandfather should learn to their grandchildren!

    I am so glad I came across your channel! I live in south Alabama in the United States and this video brought back some good memories. My dad was born in 1927 and he use to make one of these every year out of Hickory and each time he went through every step in making the whistle. He said his grandpa taught him how to make them.
    Thank you for keeping this craft alive. ❤

    My dad used to make these for me when I was a kid but he used a different kind of wood. I called it whistle wood. I don’t know the correct name. I’m 70 years old now and those memories are so precious.

      Yes, a bit harder to get the sound right.

    What was that tool you used to cut the Willow? It looks like a scythe but the handle is far different. Very curious, I use a machete for cutting weeds and brush, but your tool looks like a back saver...
