Making puukko knife for sloyd and bushcraft
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 кві 2019
- 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.
Pretty late, but sorry for your loss. I hope you countinue your journey of knife making
I know this comment is years ago, but I'm sorry to hear about your dad. I hope you feel near to your dad every time you're in your shop. God bless!
It is not a UA-cam video, it is a documentary. Beautiful job
Been watching this guy for a while. He’s amazing. Half expected a falcon to be fanning his fire and a wolf to bring him wood for the forge.
HAHAHA!!!
I love how nothing you have has logos. Just down to earth, handmade stuff.
I like that he didn't grind and polish it all clean either.
Real tools are not always shiny. Simple things have their own charming look.
Thank you for filming.
Hrafnir Krumr yeah screw a shine black is sexy we expect the black to be a cooked on poly paint imitation these days haha
A knight in shining armour has seen no battle
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.
@@mrSkandalpolisen whoa, some real wisdom for me, thanks!
@@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.
There's something poetic about using the knife you just made to carve the sheathe it will use. It's like the knife is building itself a home.
Your nose shall be a home for my farts
fuck poetry...😍
IKR it's like making a condom with your own dick!
thats pretty gay
Nice thought
Ash is such a wonderful, versatile wood. Beautiful work.
One of my favorites 🙂
(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.
Howard Richburg That is pretty annoying, atleast they haven't banned knifemaking yet here in Finland
Lucky in the US we barely even have a shop class anymore Im lucky and my school has it as an optional class. I find it ridiculous how worried schools are about sharp pointy things
@@howardrichburg2398 Well I don't think here in Finland we are allowed to have knives (or lighters If underage), and "puukko" is nowadays mostly used only when going to forest. So we are allowed to make them in school, but we aren't allowed to carry them.
@@autisti6669 You're allowed to carry a knife as a tool, but not as a weapon. Legally at least.
i dont rly understand why, but these videos speak to my soul.
Same here...it's like seeing into another time and place where I feel like, for some reason, I belong to...
Because the knife and sheath took time/talent to craft. It is made with passion and not by someone in china.
@@Art-vm6db chinese workers aren't capable of passion? does the need to make 2 knives per hour, versus 1 per hour... remove the passion? c'mon...
@@boohooboo China man spotted!
Steve Moore most stuff coming out of China is junk though built by some very poor people and barely get paid for their work I feel bad for them but at the end of the day they don’t make to many good products
I don't understand why folks would dislike real true craftsmanship.... Great skill and talent Rune..
People are jealous..
People socialised by education get jealous. People kept away from modern education systems and media get curious.
I'd say it's because he's claiming Puukko to be a "traditional scandinavian knife" which it is not. We finns aren't scandinavian, and Puukko is purely Finnic.
Your videos give me the same feeling and vibe as the "Primitive Technology" guy from Australia. He doesn't talk, just crafts things by hand. Super relaxing. Awesome channel.
I always keep a draw knife in the truck for making shavings for fires. Here in the US they are also marketed as bark scrapers to be used by foresters. I think a draw knife would make an interesting and challenging build! Well crafted and properly staked knife. I have only made full tang blades myself. I was once a welder, fitter, and fabricator. Thank you for sharing and many blessings. The Wayward Hoplite
Человек делает любимое дело и получает от этого удовольствие. Лайк.
With all the technology today there is no need to make a knife this way. The want to make something traditionally, however, is fantastic. Keep traditional skills like this alive.
yeah but knifes made in traditional way have alot more value to it. people pay big money just to own one of these completely handmade knifes.
James Ritchie like presses that you just crank with your feet or powered sanders and that type of stuff
Прекрасная работа. Необычные ножны. Браво мастер.
А я кую мечи из Властелина Колец и не только :) загляните, вдруг понравится :)
Это нож якут
@@user-ld1ho2qm3l Сам ты якут. Это классическая "финка" - пукко.
I love how you used equipment and methods they would have used in the middle ages. Great video.
Well, apart from the use of sandpaper. :D
Молодец Дядька! с руками!👍
Отлично ! Ждём новое видео из леса с этим ножом ...👍✋
I really appreciate traditional craftsmanship. Thank you for sharing the journey of creating this knife.👍😎
What a great lesson of patience and know-how. Thank you. 🙏
I am a combination of jealous and impressed. Great craft, I tip my hat to the knife maker. Thanks for sharing.
That's hypnotizing! That's so brilliant and soulful. Man you are a magic man.
WOW! What joy! No BS! Just natural sounds of the work. The natural sounds of nature. Hands & tools did all the communications. Following. Again, a joyful experience.
These videos are absolutely fantastic. This person makes tools.... not ornaments. The knife he made is going to be used not put in a showcase and regularly buffed. 10/10 for craftsmanship and editing.
I love how beautifully you can make something, especially when most blacksmiths you see today use power tools out the backside. Respect :)
There's a reason for that, it's more efficient, you get a better result and don't destroy your body in the process, power tools are the GOAT, but if you want to give yourself tennis elbow and lower your life expectancy pumping chemicals into your hands from handling ferrous metals without gloves of safety equipment you be my guest 👁️👄👁️

felicitaciones ( CONGRATULATIONS )
Outstanding attention to details! The part I love best is how you use the knife you just made to finish off making the scabbard. That shows real trust in the quality of your work. Thank you so much for taking the time to film and share. I love watching you work!!
Thank you sir for showing us a working mans knife. A knife that is meant to be used not but in drawer somewhere and looked at once a year. You can tell when someone is concerned about the quality of what they make. Love the wood sheath. Ray, Oklahoma
Wow! Perfect craft, wonderful work. Thanks so much! 👍
I liked the knife apart, separate the sheath. it was very nice. Waiting for the new video. You're doing a great job. I'm watching fondly
You are the best master of Bertram!!! Doing with Old Technologies as 100 Years Ago👍✊️
You're in a class all by yourself! You are amazing Rune! Please keep teaching us! Cheers from Northern Michigan U.S
Мужики! Постоянно жду новые видео! Нежалею что подписался на этот канал! Хорошее,умное видео! Автор просто молодец! 👍👍👍
А если бы он есче баньку с смастерил так вообще был бы молоток!)
@@antonagapov8746 Если бы он ещё в баньке помылся и руки вымыл - цены бы ему не было.
This is one of the nicest things I've ever watched
Reminds me of a friend of mine, who used to be a blacksmith. Very nice the way you showed every step, without talking about it. Best craftsmen are the quiet ones.
Old school puukko making!! Well done!
日本からあなたの動画毎回楽しく拝見させてもらってます！
Just sayin...
You do better work with the tools you have than some ( including myself) can do with power equipment. Your work in ALL the videos prove patience and knowledge above all else for quality craftsmanship.
Looks great man. Very, very cool.
That is a mighty fine addition to your kit. Nice work!
I like your stump anvil set up.
My favorite style of outdoors knife, and a very elegant execution. I should make a simple rustic one like this.
Мастер ,без всяких современных понтов,!!!!!
такое впечатление, что специально сажей натирался для съемки
Ээх, без смолы обошёлся, бы и все б поверили... Метал, со шплинта телеги... Ээх..
I enjoy watching your videos and seeing how u create so many things. Your videos are so relaxing to watch and I would enjoy having one of those knives!
Greatest puukko knife maker vid I’ve ever seen (I’ve seen a bunch) hands down!
Excellent as always Bertram and Thanks once again .
Отличный мужик!!! Руки золотые!
руки грязные, и в кадр такие не очень здорово пихать
@@igortarasov73 как написал дядя в комментах выше:" круто что у тебя грязь под ногтями, это показывает насколько ты трудолюбив"(переведено с англ. близко к тексту)
НО! я придерживаюсь твоей точки зрения
Соблюдая "атмосферность" черно-белой обстановки автор показывает этакий фэнтази. 9-11 век (викинги) или постядерный апокалипсис? Грязные ногти тут в тему как и рубаха домотканная. Но воздуходувку надо было тряпками забросать (слишком яркая). Еще удивила свеженькая эпоксидка (космические технологии, однако) и наждачка грид 100. Зачем тогда сверлить коловоротом бери макиту иль хилти? А в целом неплохо конечно.
Interesting work very primitive a reminder of when humans were first on Earth. Cheers from Texas.
You get the thanks for your work and helping me.
Excellent work, thanks for sharing your experiences. 😎
Да!!! Нож- величайшее изобретение человечества! Очень полезный предмет!
Руки хоть и грязные,но на самом деле они золотые!!!
Это просто оксид)))
Týpek, klobúk dolu pred Tebou, úžasné s akou precíznosťou a kľudom tvoríš. Ďík za to.
It's a privilege to watch your craft my friend. Thank you 🙌🐺
Very rare to see such unique and skilled work, I'm not worthy 👍👍👍
Hey it is that Scottish bastard that drinks shitty beer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Superb design!! Absolute perfection!! No frills just clean lines and the taste to leave signature of the hands that made it. I salute you sir!
ahhhh i miss forging so much thanx for your vids bring back memory of when i was in the woods and not in apartments
True craftsmanship! Watching your work is peaceful and serene. I like the use of that old ammunition’s case :)
Não falo sua língua sou do brasil mas adoro seus vídeos. Muito bom amigo.
Здравствуйте, очень красивый нож 👍 спасибо за ваши видео
А ты обратил внимание, что коробка от 12.7 мм патронов к пулемету м9 (авиационный м50) ??? Походу это Вьетнам.
@@ruso1697 Вроде, он датчанин. Да и местность соответсвующая
Nice! I look forward to seeing it in "action".
Thanks for the info. It is possible that mankind in the future will return to these simple but effective methods, techniques and tools.
With that level of craftmanship and skill, I would steer away of using epoxy. Not becouse it makes poorer puukko, but you always know there´s something that doesn´t belong there...
That is very nice puukko still =)
I have to say that your cinematography skill is of a very high level, man. Video and audio quality is really exceptional as well as the camera angles and the editing!
Absolutely amazing work!
I really enjoy your craftsmanship! Simple, useful tools and I love the wooden sheath. I am inspired to learn more. Thanks for bringing us along your journey!
there is a certain calming effect on this vid that i enjoy
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.
I could watch you work for hours.. so peaceful. Thank you for sharing friend.
It was a pleasure to see your work. Just watch and listen to these sounds.
Thank you for that.
who else cant wait to see he use that all stuff to bushcraft? 👍
Слава рукастым,настоящим мужикам
ну да, на клей нож посадил. Ничоси рукастый..
@@steelpill смешной вы ( не благодари)
@@steelpill видимо остальную часть видео ты не смотрел, дуралей
Beautifully made! Thank you for sharing. Very inspirational.
Beautiful piece of craftsmanship.
beautiful cinematography and craftsmanship! Keep up the amazing work!
This IS SOOOOO cool. And relaxing to watch. you beat 98% of asmr VIDS
Beautiful knife and sheath; simple and perfect.
New Favourite channel?
Yes.
I love the fact that you hand Made this knife, that’s true craftsmanship right there
нож каким он должен быть, без пафоса и гламура. руки золотые.
Если руки помыть- они золотые.
You, Sir, are a true artist!
Terrific!!!! Thank's for sharing!
Красавчик,с виду все просто,но знаю это не каждому дано. Мне очень понравилось.
Вот точно так-же к этому отношусь , очень понравилось .

It's more than a knife........it's art. Well done.
I used the technique I learned here to make my own wood sheaths, I really like them a lot.

@@BertramCraftAndWilderness Thank you
@@BertramCraftAndWilderness I'm a little late to the party, but will railroad spikes work ok? I have a lot of them.
@@aweirdperson.864all railroad spikes isn't the same steel - though will most likely work just fine... But always a god idea to do a hardening test before using "unknown" steels... A ton of videos about how to "test unknown steel" on youtube :)
@@BertramCraftAndWilderness thanks sir!
That was fantastic to watch, thanks for posting.
The craftsmanship makes me feel relaxed. good job
One of the best knife and sheath, combos I've ever seen. You have some kick arse skills mein bruder!
Ты мастер и руки твои золотые.
That was really a great bit of craftsmanship
This is so relaxing, I can watch this all day...
Мужик конечно молодец! Но...Отверстие для слива от воды не сделал...Ножны будут гнить от влаги изнутри со временем...А так работа достойная...Молодец.
Great video...dirt under the fingernails shows work and activity...I’d love to see the look on someone’s face if you went in for a manicure coming straight from the shop
Thanks for the video! Love the skill!
