KUSKA BUSHCRAFT CUP OLIVE WOOD
KUSKA BUSHCRAFT CUP OLIVE WOOD
This is a Kuska or Wooden Cup whichever you prefer to call it
These are Handcrafted by myself A Finlay and bear my logo on the base
Which I am sure you could remove should you wish to
These have been Handmade from 1 large ring of well seasoned Olive Wood
Using traditional skills I originally learned in Finland years ago
And I now teach in Scotland
Olive Wood as you have to admit is an extremely attractive wood
and has natural properties to prevent bacteria forming
Every single one will be a different pattern grain
The handle as you can see in the pictures is 1 piece with the bowl NOT attached by glues or pins etc
This requires Handcarving as they cant be knocked out on a lathe
Your cup comes with full instructions which cover the sealing and after care of your product along with a Jar of Tung Oil and comes in a box
I use Tung Oil on these items as soaking them in the traditional paraffin mix is not acceptable by the UK Health & Safety (its not me its our crazy government)
Your cup is approx 75mm Tall (3"), 90mm across the base (3.5"), 75mm diameter internal across the top (3"), and measures across the cup and handle 145mm (5.5")
This cup holds approx 300ml or 10fl oz
All sizes quoted are approx as it is a natural Handmade product and each one will vary a couple of mm either way
This cup has been carved from an 8" by 4" ring of timber and Olive Wood I am sure you know is very expensive in the UK
Would make a beautiful Christmas Box for the traditional Bushcrafter
