Description

This is a slightly modified version of Lacrivilho's kuksa cup. I made the model rounder and softened the holes for the fingers. If printed on high detail you should no longer get any noticeable polygons in the finished cup. Happy camping!

from Wikipedia

Guksi (or Finnish: kuksa; Swedish: kåsa) is a type of drinking cup traditionally duodji crafted by the Sami people of northern Scandinavia from carved birch burl.
Manufacture

The burl is contoured to a rough shape, carefully dried to prevent the wood from cracking, then formed in accordance with the local traditions. Birch burl kuksas last longer than plain birch kuksas. Originally guksi, or kuksa, were widely used in Arctic areas as a personal drinking cup; a well-made guksi would last a lifetime.[1]
Maintenance

Guksi was traditionally only rinsed with clean water and dried with a cloth after use. No detergents are used, since many people believe that it will damage a guksi.
Modern guksis
Modern plastic kåsa (or mug)

Today, a traditional guksi is difficult to find outside northern Scandinavia, partly because burls are seldom harvested in modern mechanized forestry. With the introduction of glass, ceramic and metal drinkingware, the skill of making such duodji artwork has become a pastime skill rather than the essential one as it was in the past. Nowadays it is also used for Bushcraft. When used this way, it is carved by the person who is going to use it, or it's a gift from a friend.
