In this video I show you have I Carve a kuksa from a fresh straight grown cherry log.

Traditionally a 'Kuksa' or 'Kåsa' is a wooden cup made from a burr or burl, which will make the a lot more durable, compared to a straight grown piece of wood.

It's really rare I find a nice suitable burr or burl, so in this case I used a nice dense piece of cherry.

I really enjoy making these! Small, chubby and comfortable cups are such treasures. This has to dry for a couple of weeks and didn't wanted to wait, so here it is. I'll make another video when it's done.

I this video I use:
Morakniv 164 spoonknife and 220 splitting knife
Julia Kalthoff axe
Hans Karlsson dogleg gouge and 35mm adze
Svante Djärv shavehorse and drawknife
Danny Wangsøe and Thomas Petersen handmade slöjdknife

ASMR to the people!
