It's been quite a while since I worked on a knife, and these old hands were a bit rusty at the motions. This was an attempt to make a pocket puukko of small, but comfortable dimensions that could replace the BHK Trapper that is usually carried. This build employed the same glassing method that I used to use when making burlap handles and it works really, really well. Instead of burlap, this one was all jute and the pattern built up well.
