Juha Perttula Village Smith Puukko, light curly birch
Old times village blacksmiths forged all kinds of items including puukko blades. Frequently blacksmiths made simple handles, but they did not work with leather; therefore, puukkos were sold without a sheath.
A village smith puukko does not have bolsters. In old times, a tang was friction fitted in a narrow hole. Today epoxy glue is generally used.
