Editing Puukko (section)

== Cultural legacy ==
In [[Finland]] and northern Scandinavia, many men take great pride in carving their puukkos' handles themselves. 

Over generations, this knife has become intimately tied to [[Nordic countries|Nordic]] culture and, in one version or another, is a part of many [[national costume]]s. 

[[Tapio Wirkkala]], a famous Finnish designer, designed a puukko for Gutmann cutlery.

The puukko has also given the root for the [[Finnish language]] verb ''puukottaa'', "to stab (with a knife)" or literally "to knife".
