Here is the Puukko again. I'll try and find some close-up shots of how a guard is fitted on one later.

Andy share with us links to your favorite knife making tutorials on youtube. What do you think of the knife making stickies here on BF when you read through them?
 
Andy,
OK, so you aren't a bored teenage :)

Fill out your profile, post some info on what you want and like. Tell us how you plan on making the knife and what experience you have. So far all we know is you have this blade and you want to make deer knives.

Just to show that I am a good sport, here are some of my favorite knives. There are others swords and daggers that are nice, but these are some of the ones I had the most fun making:

When I made the knife I sow u lot see what u think

Andy,
I think what people are seeing is shown above. It looks a bit like a kid texting on an I-phone.

Anyway, you have some info and we will all wait to see some photos or actual questions.

I offer one piece of personal advice, use Brownells AcraGlas for your knife epoxy work. I use the gel and have used it longer then some of you have lived.
