Kyle, you’re the Bob Ross of knife sharpening!
Kyle, you are the best !!! Looking forward to using the knife. Sincerely appreciate you and yes, I really did a hack job on that.
Larry
At least you gave it a try. We are all learning and Kyle is the master teacher.
Larry Chase I think we’ve all hacked a knife or two. Definitely myself included. Hope ya enjoy your mora.
You chose the right man to help you.
Beautiful edge you put on that mora. You are an artist indeed. That's for showing us the correct steps. You make it look so easy but I know that comes with hours spent in the shop.
Would love to see a video on strop maintenance and care. How to clean off bealt up steel, when to add more compound ect ect
Kyle, if I didn't know better (and not sure that I do :-)), I'd swear you made a deal with the devil to sharpen as well as you do. Truly amazing! I really enjoy your channel and continue to learn quite a bit!
haha No deals have been made with the devil! Lots of patience, and time spent on the stones :-D
Kyq
He amazes me, as well. But I would guess his guardian angel was a master swordsman or something in a past life! :-)
Man U make it look so easy and always comes out sharp.
“My ghostly white legs”
I feel your pain, being Scottish we don’t see much sun either!
This is like knife ASMR, so satisfying.
Excellent job!!! The main point with sharpening is for it to become intuitive; so one’s effort will always be the same. Thank you so much.
my mora has the same problem.... I sharpen it. Beautiful job
Every once in a while I’ll bring my moras into my shop and give em this treatment on the shapton glass stones. They usually get their touch ups from the old pocket Arkansas and I usually reserve my glass stones for work-related sharpening...but a full scandi grind polished to .44 microns is a thing of beauty...especially the wood handled, classic models 🤤
Great videos. I have struggled many many years with my sharpening never getting the edge I wanted. Your videos have taught me what it takes with the right stone and technique needed. Keep up the great videos. Thanks
Excellent! Hope you're getting good edges now!
You're an artist!
That's a cool knife . Great video, I love your knife and Axe video. I have axes that are 50 - 75 years old.
Awesome! I had my time collection and restoring axes. I have since sold some. I'll still keep an eye out for real special ones, but that's about all :-D
I love restoring old tools .
Very nice... well done.
I find a 0 degree scandi edge can be a bit fragile, so I always put a little bit of a convex on my knives when I strop them. The amount of convex isn't enough to interfere with sharpening, or even see with the naked eye, but I think it increases the strength of the edge greatly. For a strop I use old denim tacked to a flat board, with and without compound.
I have a bit of experience at this stuff 😅 but your videos are great refreshers . I think it can be easy to become un teachable as time passes I don't want to get to that place. Your Chanel is becoming my go to for a refresher. Your tone and the manner of explaining this stuff is very approachable and relaxing I'll be sure to hit the like button from know on
Thank you for sharing your expertise. I just ordered the Morakniv Kansbol. It's almost exactly the same but comes with the 90° spine & different handle. My Companion is a beast for certain aspects of carving my walking staffs & fatwood Ferro rod handles from the knuckles of deadfallen pine. I'm needed a beefier knife and a smaller precision carving knife. Both of which Morakniv makes. I'm getting their small carving axe, too.
Stunned to that mirror polish edge✨✨✨
Sand paper and files I use. Thanks for the sharpening videos my friend. Still a "beginner" per say, but with practice and ruined knives, getting better.
haha As long as there is steel left, they aren't ruined! You'll 'fix them' once you get better at sharpening! haha
I find the scandi the most difficult to sharpen. You make it look like child's play !!! Well done fine sir . Happy Sunday !!
haha they can be tricky, and are certainly the most labor intensive!
@@kyle_noseworthyhow do you remove the micro bevel without making the blade prone to chipping? Did that to my Garberg. I had 150grit sandpaper
Firstly, awesome video 🙂 secondly, I personally love Morakniv, I have the Garberg stainless and carbon also just got the Eldris, coming soon I believe I am going to swing for the cork knife with the Scandinavian grind. I prefer a true scandi grind for a bushcraft/survival knife and this is why. I grew up learning "bushcraft" skills years before I ever heard it called that, for us it was just living off the land but the (go to knife) back then, was mostly a pocket knife. My granddad in fact only ever used a pocket knife and it did everything he wanted it to do, but I found the secondary bevel or micro bevel, was always in need for a sharpening. It was a common thing to watch him take out pocket knife followed by pocket stone and sharpen it up real quick before continuing on with whatever he was going to do. Also, the secondary bevel over a span of time forced you to change the angle of the bevel as the edge receded closer to the spine from sharpening it, to the point that it basically became a scandi grind. So with the experience that I had with the pocket knives as a kid and young adult with a secondary bevel compared to my experience with my Garberg and scandi grinds prior to the introduction of that specific knife, and how much I could do before it's in need of touching up, also with the fact that more times than not with a scandi it's just stropping it on a piece of leather (no compound) rather than actually removing metal to get it back to razor sharp, I choose a true scandi grind over any other type when it comes to quote unquote bushcraft knives. Again, awesome video, I have been subscribed, just now seeing this video lol, I love your channel 🙂 take care and stay awesome!!! 🙂
Well done, KN! I would not change a thing. I prefer no micro bevel on a Scandi grind, too. Thanks for your YT content.
I was going thru your videos and couldn't pass this one up. I have a few Mora's that I keep in my toolbox, center console. etc. They are great knives for the price and in my opinion, great to learn how to sharpen the blade.
The 1000 grit stone is perfect for the polished finish to match the stainless finish and as you have demonstrated, makes her look new again.
Hopefully Larry won't give up and continue to try to sharpen his blades. I still consider myself to be a novice at sharpening, but just take my time and watch the angle. On a side note, I look forward to getting my hands on the Bake Apple blade from you. It should arrive soon.
Great information, thank you for sharing with us less experienced blade enthusiasts.
Love hand sharpening on good stones. Feels awesome and therapeutic. Have not seen a Mora like that before.
Everyone puts a full length ferro grind on thier knife i do mine only on the outer half then i have both safety and ferro edges. Great for my young grandkids who i am teaching but also good for me. Great video though, i will practice your method.
Love your sharpening videos
Thanks bud! Much appreciated!
I learned 2 things. First I don’t have enough sharpening stones and second my skills are seriously lacking compared to what I just saw. Excellent.
I am finding your videos the bext out there, great presentation, lovely style and feeling your enthusiam..... chapeau :)
Thanks so much Kyle for your great videos. I've learned so many things! I'm gonna try to sharp my new Mora following your precious advices.
Good skill really good skill
Very nice!
As Always, a great video. Practical, common sense, and, of course, being you, very well done!
Full Scandi and Full Convex for this guy 👍💪 great video
Thanks Kyle great video
Good job with amazing results
thanks kyle😊
Nice job Kyle!
Just really useful great job iv just subbed. Mora, s are really popular here in uk. Thanks
Thanks, I'm learning slowly, really enjoy your videos. All I need to do now is buy a bigger range of stones and 2 strops.. But I will watch more of your videos 1st!
Have fun learning, Carl! Good luck with it, and be patient! When the time comes to buy a strop, email me! I can make you a two-sided paddle strop, the perfect combo!
I'd also love a 2 sided strip. Great vids!! New sub
Email me bud! weiderfan.business@gmail.com ! @@noobsaibot555
@@kyle_noseworthy I'll do that! Thanks for the words of encouragement.
Interesting to learn about the micro bevels. I have a Mora bushcraft and I must say it didn't come from factory as sharp as Larry's knife is now. Beautiful job as always Kyle!
Ye mine definitley had trouble getting clean cuts in aswell and took effort to do some cutting tasks, also did you use yours on a ferrocoium rod, if so how'd it go
Awesome Kyle love your sharpening video's your very talented my friend
Amazing work!
I really like that micro amount of convexing on my Scandinavian grinds . I strongly prefer a scandi or a convex and that's the grinds I use on 75% of the knives I make . I do however for some reason always put in a flat or Saber on my full tang knives. I'm still on the fence about micro bevels . A full 0° scandi is great until you get to carving on very hard seasoned woods so the micro bevel has a important place imo
Why would someone dislike this? Thank you! Great video!
Very nice job!
Beautiful job I hope to get there some day
I never do cutting strokes. I always do the opposite. Saves the blade and the stones and puts a better and longer lasting edge.
My experiences disagree, but I'm glad your methods are working for you, James! Thanks for watching!
Nice ,,, the Mora mirror finish . Pass on the microbevel for me, I like the full and scandy straight to the edge, great video bro loving that glass finish
Me too Richard!
I love a crowned spine, it's so much more enjoyable for whittling,, if you need to strike a ferro rod,, use a dedicated striker,, it's no biggy ,,,, I have the Mora 2000 which has the same blade as this one,, and I think it's the best Mora ever,, I've no inclination to buy another, as it's sheer perfection, imho,,
This dude is making me buy a set of stones.
Interesting guide to sharpening. My own Mora had seen some abuse as a fishing knife and the blade edge is fairly notched. I like your guide but don't want to spend a fortune on stones at the moment. Maybe I can look at this again in the future. Thanks
Sandpaper on a flat surface, Craig! I have videos on it!
Awesome job brother!!!
I'm with you Kyle...no micro bevel!
The sharpened spine idea probably most commonly comes from Mors Kochanski, and I think he liked it originally for the ability to scrape wood. Fire steel was just another benefit. It definitely skins bark cleanly, as if it were invented specifically for that purpose. In combo with the aggressive cut of the blade, I think what's shown here is benchmark.
You do nice work Kyle. I've just bought a new Mora companion. It's quite dull. Any tips on how to get it sharp? I've never sharpened a knife in my life! From Australia.
Hey "cousin", really enjoy the learning value of your segments! I have a brand new Mora, that I just finished the spine on so that it works well with my ferro rod, plus a little fine tuning on the factory edge. Passes the shave & paper test some nice. Really appreciate the time and effort you put in to your channel, I always learn a bit more by watching, every time.
Kyle, ive been watching your videos for awhile and i have to ask... what inspired you to start making knives in the beginning?
And what would you say is something that continues to inspire you today?
I can only get optimal, polished, hair popping edges, with a lansky. I wish i had your skill on wet stones.
Thank You
Beautiful job! Your videos are simple & easy to follow; however, you jump from sandpaper to stones or belt sanders. Which do you prefer and whech method is the easiest to obtain the type of edges you get? Also, when using stones, which stones do you prefer, oil or whet? Please continue producing these videos. Great Stuff!
I like the micro bevel because it doesn’t bite into the wood so much

Nice 👌
Ah man... I think youre great! i wish we had grown up together
Love it
I’m gonna try stones thanks kyle
Imo the soft steel of this knife benefits from a micro bevel. Beautiful clean scandi bevel works better with a blade made from higher quality steel.
Great video, they pretty much all are. Thanks and 👍s up
Good stuff!
Where did you see that Naniwa Chosera use SiC for the abrasive? I was pretty sure it AlOx like most water stones. Part of the reason is Suehiro has a G8 8,000 grit stone and its SiC and its considered the finest SiC stone. If Chosera are SiC than their 10k would be the finest but every site I've seen has them listed as AlOx.
Good stuff.
Hello, I just want to know why you apply heavy pressure on the strop ?
Good class.
You should do a micro convex with a strop better than using a stone scandivexed
A micro convex will happen with a strop over time, regardless. That is if you're using a compound / paste!
Can i sharpen a BENCHMADE 940 in the same way? it does have a flat grind i just dont like micro bevels
Another great video Kyle, I bet you would make a good stone carver
That was sooo beautiful!
I don't mind the way spyderco used to do there Scandi grinds, not a micro bevel but a decent one. Seems to cut well, might be a little more work as you maintain the 2 angles but I like it. I also like your technique and have 2 moras coming so I plan on trying both and seeing what works best for me in practice. Thanks again, I like to start commenting as the video starts so sometimes I post earlier by accident sometimes I just think I'm done, just incase u notice my other comment. I'm not just lea ING multiple comments to give you more reading to do. Not that you, well who knows.
haha no worries Marc! I leave comments before videos end as well. I'll read them all
Hi bud love this channel !I'm totally new to sharpening ,I'm going to purchase some wet stones from Amazon I'm looking at a 1000 and a 4000 to start out with I also want to buy a leather strap my question to you is do leather straps come in different grits or a strap a strap?
Any feedback/tips on the carbon steel blades?
what brand of waterstone you are using? and what grid! thanks
when you spend so much time sharpening that edge to perfection, then you don't really want to chop a stick with that blade anymore :) just to keep it sparking shine
Sweet
Hi Kyle, Thank you for sharing your knowledge, much appreciated.
I just ordered the Spyderco tri-angle sharpmaker. I don't have much experience in sharpening knives; do you think the Spyreco would be a good choice, or should I just go for classic wet stones? Thanks a lot!
Thanks a lot Kyle, finally no microbevel on scandi, that's the point to make scandi work as forseen, isnt'it?.. Anyway very nice job!!!
Hey Kyle Chris from Barrie here love your channel! just started watching! I am Military and am getting a Mora! - I want to get 2 Japanese whetstones for basic sharpening, have been looking at Pauls Finest and figure a 1000 grit and maybe a 3000 (just Naniwa Traditional) anything else you think I would need to get started? Strop? Compound if so any recommended types?? .....would these grits be decent for general Maint on Moras?....would appreciate your input thanks and love the Vids from a fellow Canuck!
I have been super impressed by Mora's scandi grind. It really seems tragic to put a micro-bevel over it. If you enjoy maintaining an edge, that scandi is sharper than a razor!
Yea, they obviously do it to compensate for the soft steel, and the hard use they often face. However, if you know you're going to be treating your knife well, I see no issue with removing it!
Shapton kuromaku is what you where meaning .the Blue/Black stone.
Forgot the name on the spot man! haha I said 'enough' so that someone could make a google attempt and come up with the suggested name!
How long it took to get good? Thanks!
Out of curiosity can you tell me what angle you sharpen your mora at?
evrey time you say, hit the thumbs up. i just do it lol
Kyle I know you get what you pay for when it comes to knives, but in your opinion, what is the best inexpensive folding knife? Under $100
I would look to the kershaws for value. I have had many Kershaw knives less than $50, that are fantastic knives. And not just "fantastic for $50". Fantastic for any price.
The Kershaw cryo is tough as nails! the skyline is AWESOME. There are so many..
Thanks Kyle
Where do you get the stone holder from, I would like one.
Thank you for the video! Out of curiosity, what would you charge to sharpen and polish a mora?
Im working on sharpening mine now. First timer. Thanks to your videos, it's looking really nice!
How long did it take you to fix that knife?
Hey Kyle, I'm a relatively new subscriber from Ontario. As much as I would love to purchase a custom knife from you, it's just not feasible right now. With that being said, what would you recommend for a tough bushcraft knife that would be in the neighborhood of $150 Cdn? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
I want to send my Terävä Jääkäripuukko but I’m in the U.K. do you know anyone in the U.K. that has your talent please?
What do you spray on your stones?
U should have shown both before and after edge.
I did?
No micro bevel on a scandi
What do you charge for a job like this
