Not many people around me are interested of what I'm doing , so I decided to share it with the world :D - It's how I make one of my knives , I hope that it's not too terribly filmed and still fun to watch. Cheers

I've never seen this type of knife before but the past 11 minutes have made me a huge fan of the design
You married elegance with classic. Great result.
I REALLY like the combination of the steel and then the brass against the dark ebony and the beautiful handle. It's really beautiful. I'm amazed how to can take very ordinary looking items and turn them into such beautiful works of art!
What a beautiful piece of craftsmanship! 🤩
Beautiful and very functional piece... thanks for sharing!
What a beautiful blade! Excellent in all regards.
again, simply beautiful work. Thank you. J.
You are a humble guy and I really respect that! I suffer from the same problem, not too many people around me, like knives as I do! Υou make very good Puukkos!! Always be hungry for perfection on knife making! Keep it up!
thank you , I needed to hear something like this :)
Respect man. Beautiful knife with a razor sharp edge. Σορεος
Thank you neigbour :)
Absolutely beautiful knife and sheath. 😃👍🏼
beautiful work!!!
Wow, just wow. What a beautiful knife.
Great job, simple, beautiful !
You make it look so easy. What a beauty
Beautiful !!!!
Thanks. I learned some things from this build.
Gorgeous. And I like your video style. It's fun.
Nice work! I am quite interested. Especially at this time in the making of the sheath. Thanks for sharing this!
it is not the most in depth video of how to make this type of sheath , but I hope that it will still be of help for you :) good luck
Молодец хорошая работа. Отличный рабочий нож. 👍
Excellent and looks fantastic very skilled craftsman. Thank you 👌👌👌👌
Thanks friend :)
Il est magnifique ce puukko .
Lmao, at 6:27 I can hear someone playing Oblivion in the background. I love that game. Also great knife! It’s gorgeous.
Another amazing knife in one of my favorite steels 80crv2. :) I just wish I could do handles as well as you. Too old and clumsy I guess (me I mean) . :) Keep up the good work.
Отлична работа! Много добре.
Simply a work of art. .
Thank you :)
Your knifemaking is really solid. You clearly master every step of the way. More than I can say about myself, but that's what drives me forward. Also, the place you hate the most is the part I love the most. Brass is my favourite material to work with. But on top of all that, your video editing is brilliant! Good job, mate!
Thanks for the nice comment mate. I have much to learn and to improve but that's the fun :) I also like working with brass , if I had to do this with stainless it would be much more unpleasant :) Brass is more forgiving.
@RustLegion you know, earlier tonight, when I was watching this video while having some evening food before going back out in my workshop, I had just cut a piece of 2,5mm brass for a middle-spacer (don't know the technical term, but for your knife it would be something to put between the ebony and the alder burl, and like a sandwich of different plates, you know what I mean.) And I actually filed out a profile-pattern on the brass plate. I've never done it before, but it was actually quite fun, even though it was a bit hard on the fingers as I don't have a vice yet. But it was not that hard, just a bit time-consuming, and it was very satisfying to see the pattern develop. Also, I forgot to say, that alder burl is beautiful! Is it Scandinavian alder? I have several alder burls from this area in Northern Norway where I live, yet I have never seen a pattern quite like that before.
Мастеру респект👌👍шикарная работа
Thanks video. Perfect knife...
Fantastic make. I know how to make knives but the magic part still working on it.
yes the magic is cool but it has a long cooldown :D
Excellent, amazing.
Great video and great job!
Great video for a great knife👍
BRAVO!!!
Fun video mate. Well done. Excellent knife aswell. Rob.
Thanks friend. If you think it's fun then I did my job :D
It looks amazing. The handle looks fantastic, the pattern on the wood is very beautiful.
thanks , friend :)
I am amazing how you grind the blade so beautiful! It looks like its very difficult to me!
when I first started it was pretty difficult indeed :) but with some practice and ruined blades you get the muscle memory and the confidence ;d
Шикарная финка!
Outstanding job 🤙🏻
thanks mate :)
👍👍👍
Красивая финка вышла👍
Hi. Do you sell knifes?
Well done,looks really beautiful
thank you :)
Well the internet is interested so thanks for sharing. And good work !
Thank you , you make awesome knives ;) I want to try a puukko with carved horn and your video gave me some good info on how to do it ;)
@@RustLegion You are welcome ;-)
Отличный нож,лайк в копилку и. Подписка ,будем дружить.👍👍👍👋
Very Good Video.Good Job.Thanks.🇩🇪🙋♂️👍👌😹💪✌️ Master Knife
Righteous
Very nice!!!
I love it, im gonna make that.
Do it :) I will be happy if you do :)
@@RustLegion yes :) i just need some stuff
👍🥇👍
I just found your channel. Looking at the beauties you make encouraged me to try making my own puukko. Do you have any suggestions for a person who is familiar with knives, but never made one himself?
It is awesome that I encouraged someone to try and make a knife. My advice is to watch some more videos , see what tools you have around you and adapt your process to the tools and workplace you have. You will need a piece of steel from your local knifemaking supply shop (4mm thick 80CrV2 or 1084 would be nice) and a piece of wood. Also a way to harden it. If you give me more info I can give you more directions. Cheers
@@RustLegion I was thinking about the specifications for the knife, next week i will have some more time to think it through, until that i need most of my time on studying, i can only watch your vids during the my pauses :D. But i will write you the details as soon as i can, since you offered even more help wich is so nice of you! Thank you very much mate!
Nice!!😁👍
Love the craftsmanship, beautiful work! Do you have a website for selling your puko?
you can contact me on my e-mail or on instagram , the links are in the "about" section in my channel ;)
İ love it
Very nice knife
Love it! Can a person buy one?! Just like this one. How much would you charge? If I had the means and ability to make one myself, I would. This is the kind of knife I would pass onto a loved one, or friend, after I'm gone. We live in a world of quick fixes and immediate gratification. This knife and your other work seems to come from personal due diligence and integrity. I greatly appreciate it. Thanks for the videos...
Hello sir , thank you for the nice comment. Yes I take commissions , If you want - send me an e-mail at dimitarpopov88@yahoo.com and we can discuss the details. Best regards :)
Пока переведу кино закончится, с когда смотреть.
Hi, thanks, very good vidéo ! Which kind of resin does you use ?
Thank you. I use 24 hours epoxy resin :)
@@RustLegion thanks !
Beautiful job but now I have to make one!
Do It!
Nice knife. How did you break the brass plate? It was the coolest thing I have ever seen!
thank you. As much as I don't want to spoil the "magic" I just cut it and then did some video editing :D
@@RustLegion Thank you for revealing that. I was so confused, because you said you learned it on KZhead. I'm spinning in my brain, trying to figure out this technique. That's good editing, because I didn't catch it.
Did you grind the top of the knife to? Like the opposite side of the edge?
yes I did. At 5:21 you can see the crossection of the blade from the shape of the hole in the bolster. It's like false edge.
👍👍🙏
waooww
5:22 how u made that triangle? Just by hammering bolster down with tube onto blade?
Hammering until it stops , getting it out and filing a bit then hammering again. And doing this multiple times. I didn't show it because it is very long and boring process, but next bolster I fit , I may make full guide.
@@RustLegion ah, thanks. That explains a lot about fitting bolster without gaps
U have new subscriber congretz
Just Awesome! What is the “oil” you put on the handle at 08:25?
Thanks :) it's pure tung oil.There are tons of different oils for wood , I think they all work , it's a matter of preference :)
@@RustLegion 🙏🏼 it looks really satisfying
Wow very nice
Awesome!! :)
thank you friend :)
How to I buy one?
Вещь!
great job
thanks :)
Sauber! Geiles Teil. Machst du auch Aufträge?
yes I do , even this one was a commission :)
your pukko is amazing :::::::::::::)))))))))))))))))))))
Класс!!!
Клинок точил без приспособ ,мастер.
отлично
What kind of wood do you used?
Alder burl and ebony for the handle. Pine wood for the sheath insert.
I wish you would have made another I would have purchased it.
well I can always make another one if you are interested :)
👍🔪🔪🔪👍
Amazing,, how much , if you sale,??
Thank you, but I don't sell it. It was for a friend of mine .
great job, very nice!!! I want to buy one, do you sell?
thank you. Yes I do custom orders , send me an e mail if you wish - dimitarpopov88@yahoo.com
Beautiful knife excellent work if you’re in the selling those I’d like to buy one ☝️
Thanks, this one is for sale indeed ;) - dimitarpopov88@yahoo.com you can message me here
Майстор!
New video 👍👍
working on new one , but damn they take some time :D
Все хорошо, но зачем такой длинный хвостовик, и такой короткий клинок??
Клинок - 10.5 см, хвостовик - 11.5 Если рукоятка короче, то она будет мала для руки владельца, а он хочет лезвие 10,5 см. :)
@@RustLegion Понятно. Заказчик - барин!)
Ты это, завязывай с латунным стеклом. А то народ подумает, что так и ножи можно делать. Надрезал, надломил, раз и готово. Инопланетные технологии.🤪
Έλληνας;
i hate it when they slice paper
I usually show how I cut real things in my videos at the end , but this knife was made for a friend of mine and I didn't want to scratch it . This is why I only hut some soft wood and paper at the end.
how the f*ck did you get it so sharp
I grinded the edge till it's very thin (around 0.1mm) then I sharpened it on 1200 grit water stone and finished with leather strop :)
👍👍👍👍🙆
