Mora Knife Blade with Oak and Resin Handle
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ย. 2024
- The handle is made of gnarly and cracked oak, burnt edges and clear resin filling. Blade is a No 2/0 Carbon Mora (Made in Sweden).
I had one design when I started making this handle, but the oak wood and cracks led me on another path. I think it turned out pretty nice.
I made the handle to fit my hands and grip. The handle is round so it can be used during a longer period of time. This knife is made to carve, cut and whittle (en slöjdkniv). I just made another design for it rather than the classic round handle. I added a metal (aluminum) plate as bolster for the contrast.
I was really surprised by the high quality of this blade. My first knife as a kid, was a Mora knife (a Classic 1) and I had it for years.
If I would do this again, I would get a longer drill bit from start and mount the blade before the resin pour. Drilling trough resin was not my favourite task.

What a great project Daniel! I really like the nail idea and also that you used a piece of wood with character. And thanks, as always, for free publicity!! You’ve got to be the nicest TH-camr on here.
haha. Hope not! But big thanks Rob! :-) U know it means a lot to me! All the best to you!
Wow. That is a beautiful blade and the handle you made turned out amazing. Awesome video and music
Thank you brother! You know I really appreciate your kind and encouraging support so this time I put some link your way in the video. Thanks again my friend!! Take care and "see you soon again" :-)
When we saw that handle start to take shape, we both said 'Wow, beautiful!'. Love the burnt edges too, it came out great, another fine job, brother! Thanks for the sticker shot on the bandsaw! 👍👍
Thank you both! Your kind words and support means a lot! Very happy that you liked it :-) And my pleasure! Take care and hope that pumpkin issue is sorted :-)

I have a Mora #2? It has such a poor wood handle in comparison. No solid grip. No protection. You did a fine job. Now I know what I gotta do!!!
How hard is the epoxy? Can you baton a little bit with that knife without it braking? Im asking becuse i would like to put a knife blade in a curly birch handle just like you have done.
great job. difficult to make the handle of a piece
Thank you so much! That means a lot coming from you my friend! I liked the process, but as you said it was not easy. :-) Thanks again!!!
hey thats how i been doing them for for 46 years cool bud
thank you very much for that! 😊
i find it cheaper to buy the knives with a plastic handle than a blank and cut it off on the bandsaw and you also get a scabbard thrown in some sites have great offers on multi buys
Hey! Thanks for watching and commenting! Great tip! Yeah, some cheaper knife blades is great to buy in a bundle or reuse a blade from a "donor knife". 👍
Well done, looks like your channel is just getting started. I really enjoy watching people who don't always have every tool imaginable and still create things. Good luck my friend, you keep making I'll keep watching.
Big thanks for your kind words and for your support! sorry for my late reply! :-)
Outstanding job on the handle mate! and love the use of improvised tools !!
Cheers my friend, Bram
Thank you very much! Yeah, that nail has another use now. :-) Take care my friend!
You have just build knife for all the life! Well done mate ;-)
Thank you my friend!!! I appreciate your support immensely! I'm so impressed and honored that you watch my little trinkets. :-) Thanks! I hope the next owner of this knife will use it for a lifetime I'm planning on not keeping it. ;-)
Nice knife!
Thank you very much! Much appreciated!! :-)
good stuff no view of front ?
big thanks! oh, sorry! I must have edited away some of the "after shots". :-) Thanks again for watching and commenting!
Beautiful work Swede 😎 That knife will be perfect for killings pumpkins next year! 🎃👍👍 (Ett tvo tre)
haha. Thank you one half of the Robbers :-) Yes, seeing the pumpkins problems spreading, I think we need more sharp tools to hold them at bay. I'm glad we only have potatoes over here. :-) Thank you again my friend - have a great day! :-)
Great looking knife and a great save with otherwise "worthless" wood. I personally love gnarly wood. I like the character it brings to a piece.
Billy
Thank you for that Billy! Means a lot coming from you! Thanks again :-)
Bravissimo, coltello stupendo . Un saluto dall' Italia.
Looks a bit stupid the big handle whit the small knive
Beautiful job my friend :) I love my Mora knives and you have done that wonderful blade proud :) I carry a Robust everywhere and it's still like new after years of hard work :) ॐ
Thank you so much my friend! It means a lot coming from you. Yeah, that Robust knife is really nice indeed. I like the steel in this one. I think I will try their laminated blade for my next handle. Namaste! Thank you again Chris - all the best to you!! :-)
Nice work!
Thank you very much! I really appreciate you watching and commenting! Thanks! :-)
Now you really need to make a leather sheath for this beauty. That's another video for us to watch!
Thank you so much! Yea, I just wish I have your skill in leather work. :-) Big thanks again! :-)
@@dekeros-recreationalwoodwo6456 I have seen enough videos from you. I know you can do it!!
@@StuffUCanMake Thank you my friend!!! :-)
......I just love the shape of your handle! But in my case i had to Do
A similar shape to the original... So
It fits in the sheet..
Really great result there, buddy! 👍
Thank you very much my friend! My "first real" knife handle. It was fun and I think I'm going to try to make another one soon again. Thanks again Magnus - have a fantastic day! :-)
Good looking knife! I'm not familiar with a Mora knife...is that specifically for carving?
Warm thanks my friend! Mora is a place in Sweden with a lot of history. Among other things they are pretty known for making quality knives (the company with the same name). Everything from ordinary carpenter knives to carving, hunting, bush crafting knives. This type of blade I used here is a carving knife blade. Next time I will probably do a hunting knife and a carving knife with laminated steel blade from Mora. :-) Thanks for watching and commenting - You how much I appreciate it! :-)
Interesting. I didn’t know that!
Buen trabajo compañero te ha quedado genial. Saludos.
¡Gracias mi amigo! Sabes que aprecio tus amables palabras! Thanks again!! :-)
Nice knife, great piece of oak.
Thank you so very much JP Makes! :-)
Verrrry beauty!

Such a cool project, and I love the part with the epoxy ;)
Thank you my friend! Yeah, I'm in the deep end of the resin pool here. :-) haha. U know I appreciate your kind support! Cheers!
