Probably the best, cheapest and simplest way to sharpen your scandi grind knife

I´m almost only use the Mora Classic knife, so the way I demonstrate to sharpen a scandi grind knife in this video fulfills all my needs.
Making a sharpening board from wet sandpaper and a piece and a board of some sort (in this case a skirting board) is cheep and works very well. Make sure the board has a flat and smooth surface.
I use wet sandpaper between 120 to 1200 grit depending on the condition of the knife edge. For honing I have a a piece of wood with a piece of leather belt attached to it. I have put some abrasive paste and oil on the belt.
When sharpening a scandi grind knife it´s important to sharpen the whole width of the bevel. I do this by pushing down with my finger on the bevel to keep it flat against the sharpening board.
I have some sharpening stones that I use occasionally and there are a multitude of sharpening stones, machines, jigs and so on on the web if your in to that.
Hope you enjoy

Hei. Jeg har prøvd litt av samme metode på mine morakniver, men bruker da noen dråper med olje på papiret. Er det en fordeler ved det, eller går det for det samme? Synes uansett resultatet blir bra, men at olja kanskje gjør at papiret holder litt lenger? Vennlig hilsen fra grensenaboen i vest (pluss ny abonnent på din kanal).

Hej! Det vet jag faktiskt inte, har själv inte provat det. Men funkar det så kör på det😊

I’m pretty sure you’ve ruined the durability of that edge because you overheated it by dry sanding.

[@mattiasnorberg]

Nope, it did not. It works great like it's done for the past 35 years!

@mattiasnorberg: Agreed, nice simple way to keep it sharp.
