- Roselli’s blade, custom sized carpenter blade with oak/ moose antler handle gets a leather sheath. That is how I treat the leather in my leather sheath works.

Very nice sheath👌
Thank you!
Beautiful work Osmo! Great!
Very nice, like all your work. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with all people
Always the best!
Very well done. Thanks for the inspiration.
Osmo... You Are my inspiration, because of you i have now made handles to 9 knifes. Always looking and hoping that you Will upload New vids... Regards...
Hey, thanks!
Wonderful job! I really enjoy the tutorial videos. Thank you.
Thank you!
Excellant as always osmo!!!
Thank you for sharing your talent for knife making and leather work with everyone. I bought an old sheathless Puukko recently, and while preparing to make a sheath, I closely examined a J Marttiini Puukko I bought back in the 50s in Finland. I noticed a feature of its sheath that I haven’t seen incorporated in any of the sheath making videos online. The maker skived one inch of the top of the sheath leather, folded it over inside and glued it in place. Created a half-inch, very nicely finished top edge of the knife opening. I could email a pic if I had an address.
Hey, I think you are meaning this; the edge of the leather sheath hole part has been thinned and folded and glued as douple layer.
Nicely done, sir! Thanks for sharing the entire sequence.The final product is sure to please its new owner.
Thanks mate!
What a coincidence. I am just in the process of sewing the sheath for puukko. Two years ago I started making puukkos inspired by your works :) greetings from Poland and thank You for all helpful movies!
I wish all the best for your leather work!
I forged a couple puukkos last week, sanded them and have the handle on one. Leatherwork is next week. I've never done anything with leather before. Let's see if mine are even close to as nice as yours. Thanks
Great job,
@Thetopicala i love the short videos showing your camera and software talents,but i'm sure i am far from alone that miss the other style videos such as this one and the handle making episodes are you planning to do more in the future or maybe even blade making,please don't think i'm criticizing you in any way i have been a fan of your work for many years,all the best to you and yours,please keep everyone safe from what the world is going through
Thanks Ron! My videos born from a moment nowadays. No plans beforehand. I just feel that this should be recorded. 😁 Atb, Osmo
Kiitos taas kivasta videosta. Tein pitkän aikaa tuon naskaloinnin ja ompelun vasta kun nahka oli kuivunut. Opin näistä sun videoista että helpomminkin voi asiat tehdä ;) Nyt sujuu mukavammin eikä ole sormet niin kovilla!
Vaikka menetelisit jatkossakin kuten kuvasit odottaneesi nahkan kuivumista ennen ompeleiden tekoa niin nyylaamista kannattaa tehdä jo kuivumisen loppuvaiheesa ja ommelkohtaan sivellä kosteutta kun aloittaa naskalin käytön. Tapoja on monia. 👍🏻
Hello from a beginning Puukko builder! Your videos are inspiring! Observing this video, you make curving the line of the stitches across the wooden protector very easy. This has been my biggest challenge. Are you pushing the "outside" of the curve further along towards the tip? Maybe my leather is too thick to control, what millimetre thickness leather are you using? Please, and Thank you!....... (advice from the Gang out there is always welcome)
Thanks for your inquiry Patrick. Yes, the ”curve thing” in stitching the last parts of the tip of a scandi/nordic leather sheath. It’s partly how you place needle holes, partly pure finger force and also your ”eye” to make it. By thinning the leather from this area also helps. I do not do thinning always. Leathers may apparently vary from quality and stiffness. Also you can mold the curve later (when the wet molded leather is drying) with a some hard like metal spoon to get that form for your curve. Anyway you can feel your sore fingers next day if you do more than one sheath. You can develope your eye and touch by repeats. Basically leather sheath making is hard work without shortcuts. Hope this helps 😀 Osmo
@@thetopicala Yes, it did help. Thank you. 'Repeat'? I get to make more Puukko's? Hooray!
I make leather sheaths for my knives but never puukko. Do you mind if I ask why you wrap the thread around the needle a few times?
Hey, thanks for asking! It makes a knot for a saddler’s stitch which is always better than without if a thread should happen to snap somehow. 👍🏻 So every single stitch is secured with s knot.
@@thetopicala Thanks for replying. I'll start doing that too then
You learn to do it very fast without even thinking it!
BRAWO !!!!!!

Is that 2mm unpressed leather? I've been using 2mm pressed leather, which seems almost impossible to poke holes in while it's still wet, it deforms too much.
It is pressed leather, not the usual stuff I am using. Yeah, sometimes even in the same hide you can find pieces that are more troublesome to poke with awl.
hirveesti himottaisi tehdä puukkoon kahva joko tuohesta tai parkkinahasta. Osaatko sanoa minkäs lasia etuja saattaisi olla jommalla kummalla toisen yli?
Kannattaa kokeilla molempia. Tuohipään keveys ja tunnelma kädessä on kyllä omansa laatuinen nahkaista puukonpäätä ollenkaan väheksymättä.
@@thetopicala ok, pidän mielessä. Kiitos paljon vastauksesta!
