Making a Puukko Knife - Part 1 - The Knife Handle

#knifemaking #puukko #puronvarsi
This is part 1 of a 2 part video, showing how I make a Puukko knife from a Finnish Puronvarsi blade and stabilised Finnish curly birch.
Part 2 to follow very soon showing how I make a Finnish style sheath.
The birch wood used was a gift from a friend in Finland called Osmo, he is a master at making this style of knife. Osmo's channel is called The Topicala.
