Talk:Puukko

message: This edit looks odd to me. To fact-check a part of it, the additions state that "everyone in Finland" has heard of the weapon's usefulness during the Winter War. I've been here for close to 21 years and never have, how about the other Finns present? --Kizor 19:32, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: "Rite of passage" might be too much, but what about the national costumes in some (all?) parts of Finland, where costume includes a puukko on your belt? I remember getting my first costume, which I hated, but which also had a tiny little puukko in its scabbard on the belt. Its dull blade was about 3cm long. :) Jedku  —Preceding comment was added at 21:28, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

- convincing, but hardly encyclopedia quality! Oddly, the [puukko article] is no help at all - seeming to refer only to knives in general, but http://www.puukkosivut.net/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=842&highlight=tommi is a thread (in Finnish) asking what's so special about the Tommy/Tommi. - Snori (talk) 12:41, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

message: :"The traditional material for the handle is birch. Also oak, ash, pine bark, horn (especially elk and reindeer), scrimshaw and bone are used." [emphasis added]
Scrimshaw is a process, not a material.  Is, perhaps, walrus ivory or something similar intended here?    Heavenlyblue (talk) 06:33, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

message: I propose that puukko be merged into Sami knife. I think that the content in the puukko article can easily be explained in the context of Sami knife, and the Sami knife article is of a reasonable size that the merging of puukko will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned.
