    Excellent! Your homemade jigs are great. Maintaining 90 degrees at all times is crucial and thus the jigs are needed. One little roll away from 90 degrees when grinding and you have ruined it…I know from experience!

    I've been running a burr like this for some years now on all my bushcraft knives and honestly wouldn't be without it because of the many uses. My method to produce the burr very similar to the one you're describing. I use a honing steel mostly but also have a tool made from an old blunt router bit where I use the shaft rather than the blade of course. Great video and a very happy Christmas to you.

    Please don't do that! I mean the first example, eating from a tree trunk. Foxes mark their territory by placing their stools on raised areas. Stones, sawn-off tree trunks. Placing food on a sawed-off tree trunk without a base is questionable because of the fox tapeworm. I also don't want to cut my sausage with a blade where I have previously wiped everything with it. Just some good advice.

    On my bushcraft knife, I keep the distance where my thumb can reach, (around 2 inches), rounded, for carving, and the rest of the blade towards the tip, I keep very sharp ( 90 degrees, ),,
    So, I have the best of both worlds I think,, 🤔🤔🔪🔪,,

    I mentionied a card scraper edge on the spine in a previous video's comment(where I said that it can be good if it is put on the tail of the venture).
    thanks for mentioning my idea and watching the video i recommanded.
    But my method of making a quick(not so sharp) card scraper edge in the outdoors is using a tungsten cardbide machine tool as a burnisher. It is sharper than the burnisher and would creat a perfect burr, but this sharpness allows knives with non-perfect 90degree edges to take a burr.
    Thank you so much for showing my idea in a video, I totally did not expect it!
    I always love learning from many different fields and take inspiration from them into my own field

    Hi Felix, the opinions in case of a spine should ve sharp or rounded are different and there are many of them. I also like a sharp spine more than a rounded one, because it's simply an additional tool. Thanks for another very interesting and useful video and i wish you and your familiy Merry Christmas, some hopefully relaxing days and a great start into the new year 2024! LG

    At the tip of a Mora blade there is actually about a centimeter of sharp spine where the Scandi bevel ends. This can be used as an emergency option for creating sparks with a ferrocerium-rod.

    When sharpening the spine you are doing the exact same process used in ice skates. Particularly figure skates or hockey goalie skates. Other hockey skates are ground to be concave. Goalie or figure skates are closer to a flat 90 degree grind. So, you could go to a skate shop and see if they can do your knife, if you don't feel comfortable yourself.
    Once you get the initial shape, you can proly find a hand sharpener for skates to touch it up.

    It's worth pointing out that this is completely pointless on san mai knives where the outer layers are iron or some unhardenable steel. It really needs to be a homogenous blade. Even differential hardening or tempering like edge hardening or a soft back draw, renders it kinda useless. You want the whole blade to be hardened. So if you want a knife with a hamon, it's worth considering treating the back the same as the edge

    Always peeled carrots with the back of my knives.
    And yearly I smooth out walking sticks and tool handles with the back of my bushcraft knife. Counter intuitive but you get better grip with a rough cut stick than a well rounded stick - so I shave the bark off my sticks while green, and then smooth out the ridges with back of my knife. Quick and dirty job does the best. I make handles for my tools and family as well - hoes, fries, axes and hammers.
    As others have said, you should probably add a big disclaimer warning people about the danger of grinding a knife the way you did. Or pin a comment saying that. I have had a knife flick at my arm while sharpening like that - first and last time I make the mistake. Luckily it wasn’t my last mistake…
    Cheers from Portugal.
    And merry Christmas Felix!

    I am doing the 60 degree angle on my Moras with the Work sharp field sharpener and it is working amazingly well. I am sharpening close to the end of the blade, opposite from your technique as i was cutting my finger when too close but will probably changing the edge sharpening but still i want to have it at least 2 cm from the handle as sometimes for precision i use the thumb. I agree completely that further the sharpening edge is , more difficult to operate is.Great tutorial and tips again!!!

    Thanks Felix, loved it. I'm an engineer and long time knife lover and would like to add something to the commentary about how you ground the knife spine. I really liked how you did it. There are risks to your person every time you pick up an edge tool and if you cannot manage those risks you should not be handling sharp things. Of course, there are recommended ways of handling sharp things and that's fine, but we need to be able to recognise risk and to weigh it against any potential benefit. If you cannot do this, you will not last in a true survival situation. I've taken to doing it as you showed in the video, mostly because of physical limitations; it's just more comfortable for me. For most of my life, I've had high-risk physical jobs where there were little options available, so, learning to recognise risks and assess how to best approach any given task was the best survival tool I had. Again, if you can't understand what the pointy or slicey bits of knives can do to you (and how to stop it happening), don't use sharp things like knives. Keep up the good work, and thanks again.

    Hi Felix,
    watched your video just again, after I have seen it a couple of weeks back and kept it settling ... I feel, some videos are like a good Gulasch, tastes even better when warmed up ;-)
    Great tutorial as always, just to add a little trick from my side, which I learned from my grand dad: if you fear (maybe based on former bad experience) to get your thumb cut by the spine, simply put a band-aid on your thumb before you start. Means, don't use it after bleeding, use it in order to avoid bleeding ;-)
    Else, nothing special to add. I'm usually using sand paper and diamond sharpening blades, both getting at low costs in any hardware store here around, for most of those tasks.
    Just loving to watch your videos, when I find the time. Hope your are well and wish you, a little bit late but ..., all the best for 2024!
    Best regards from Bangalore, Robert

      @@FelixImmler Hi Felix, gut zu hören dass es Euch allen gut geht! Ja hier auch alles halbwegs ok, demnächst geht es hoffentlich wieder mal in den Norden, nach Rajasthan ;-) Bin in letzter Zeit nicht mehr ganz so viel auf TH-cam, aber Deine Videos schau ich selbstverständlich immer, wenn auch inzwischen oft ohne Kommi, sorry.
      Das mit dem Pflaster hilft nicht nur gegen Schnitte sondern auch halbwegs gegen Blasen. Klingt wahrscheinlich saublöd, aber ich entwickle tatsächlich manchmal eine Blase am Zeigefinger, wenn ich zu viel in der Küche am Werkeln bin ... und das, obwohl der Messerrücken abgerundet ist. Bin halt ein Weichei 🤣 Manche Pflaster sind aber bei scharfen Rücken schon nach kurzer Zeit durch ... da müsste man sich für längere tasks wohl gleich einen Lederstreifen um den Finger wickeln, wie bei der Feuersteinbearbeitung. Mangels solcher Streifen aber noch nicht ausprobiert. Aber vielleicht fällt Dir da ja auch was Anderes und Besseres zum Thema ein, eine Art professioneller Fingerschutz oder zumindest Fingerhut oder so ... und natürlich am besten gleich was als weiteres Zubehör fürs Victorinox 🤣🤣🤣
      Bleib fit und mach's gut, und grüß mir die Schweiz!
      Liebe Grüße, Robert

    Thanks for this information Felix, I am a big fan of Mora knives and have now put a 90 degree spine on mine and can finally use it as a ferro rod sparker. I never realised it was the angle, I thought it was maybe the metal used. So thank you again for this fantastic Christmas present of being able to upgrade my simple Mora. Enjoy your Christmas and look forward to seeing your videos in the new year

    Another place you will find an exceptional sharp and square spine for scraping wooden and using a fire striker is on the wood saw blade on the Swiss Army Knife - it's as sharp as a cabinet scraper.

    For me, a sharp 90 degree spine is essential for any bushcraft knife. Like you say, Felix, there are so many benefits from having a sharp spine in the field. I agree with you. Why do most outdoor knives not have this feature? I suppose it's due to liability from injury by idiots. 😆

    Personally I don't use sharp spine. I often put thumb on the spine and did cut it in the past.
    Saying that I agree that manufacturers could leave spine edne sharp. It's way easier to chapher it than make it sharp again.
    One question, why can't you scrape things with the edge? If it's 90° to the object it works same as scraping woth the spine.

    Nice job on the burr demo - one of the best I have seen. Have you done a clip on how to make leather lacing? An old trapper trick was to stick the knife in a block of wood, put a hole in a scrap piece of leather or hide, start a little piece and pull - the leather rotates around the blade and you can pull off a long, even piece of leather - good for repairing traditional rawhide snowshoes or just making lacing for whatever task you need.
