- Rusty Frosts Mora knife restoration. In this video, I showed the restoration of a rusty MORA knife. I think this knife was made in the 80s. But this knife has not been used for a long time. The scabbard of the knife was broken. I removed the rust and restored the scabbards. Now this knife is ready to work. I hope you enjoyed my knife restoration video.

Back in the days, 25/30 years ago, when we still had mandatory army service (≈ 1 year after high school), we all got one of those to our gear, exactly that kind. Great channel 🙂
Kids today would be better off if military service was still mandatory
The 3 crowns on the sheet, is the Swedish Army stamp of approval, yet its the basic kit knife. Later on if you had signed up for trench foot and really loved eating mosqitoes cause you watched too many rambo movies you recived A1 fällkniven a much larger pice.
Mora makes great knives. Awesome restoration. They have made the Classic number 2 for over a century.
I’ll never unsubscribe - fellow knife enthusiast/ collector/ lover etc 😅 👏 Thanks 🙏
That turned out better than new. I’m giving it a 10 plus! Awesome results. I’d be proud to own that any time!
And why for hell do you remove the mora lettering ? That was the best part of a restoration, mate you make me crazy 😅😊😊😊
I have this memory that this was from the mid to late 1980s based on the plastic sheath. The belt loop would break within the year and people hated the plastic design of the sheath as it made the knife feel cheap.
A solid 10.
Этот нож ещё до реставрации был в хорошем состоянии! Не сильно повреждён корозией! Поэтому мастеру не составило большого труда довести его до идеального состояния! Мне понравилась ваша работа
Mora is my favorite knife. Sharp as a razor, light and has many options all at a great price.
Quality is not that good though. These are knifes bought by construction workers, used for a short time and then disgarded. They are nice when knew for as long as it lasts
@@philiplaurell1163they make the knives for different applications. The newer knives with plastic grips are made for the construction worker market. They are cheap, but made from high quality tool steel. They are edge-hardened and will retain an edge for longer, but are difficult to re-sharpen.
Older knives with wooden grips are usually of a different steel quality than the plastic ones and are easier to sharpen.
You can even find Mora knives with laminated steel.
They've made dozens of models over the years and made changes both in terms of materials and also visual design changes. It is sometimes hard to say what type of steel is used in specific models, just from looking at the handle and sheath, but the old ones are always worth a closer look because some of them are superb quality blades.
We have several of these in our summer house. I've always looked at them as being old memories, but basically junk. But this has inspired me to see that they could be given a new life.
10 out of 10. Great restoration. You definitely are very skilled at this.
I couldn't begin to tell you the year in which that particular knife was made but I give you a 10/10 on the knife restoration. The one thing I didn't understand about the sheath was why didn't you heat it up to make the belt holes flat, or was that the way it was made? I'm not a knife or restoration expert so I have to ask.
The belt slots on this model of sheath were flat from the factory, but they were a bad design and you needed to pry them apart real hard in order to thread them on a leather belt. The belt loop used to be a separate piece made from leather or pvc and riveted to the sheath. These were much softer. Later models were re-designed so that the middle piece was offset from the others, making room for a thicker belt.
Most workers would not carry the knife on a belt though but hang the knife from a button on their overalls, either on the bib, by the hip or on the thigh.
Hanging the knife from the belt is pretty awkward when you sit in a car or on a chair. It's also in the way if you want to use a tool belt or if you work outside and wear a jacket. So most guys actually carry the knife on the thigh pocket next to the folding ruler. Swedish work clothes usually come with these dedicated knife buttons so you can choose wich way you want to carry your knife. You can see the top of the slot has a wider hole to go around a button.
Wonderfully done! You definitely have an affection for Mora knives.
Excellent job as usual!
Amazing Restoration 👍🏻👍🏽👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
The sound quality on this video is truly immersive!
Well done
Its always awesome to see a master at its craft, amazing video, enjoyed it throughly!!!
Very nice work once again a definite 10 !! The shine is amazing it looks and cuts fantastic!!!
Lovely restoration!
чудовий ніж. Маю такий у користуванні багато років. Не знаю яким чином - але ніж довго тримає заточку, хоч сталь загартована не на високу твердість. Також зменшив підпальцевий упор, щоб поліція не причепилася за ХЗ
Але ці моделі і зараз продаються. Здається, по товщині клинка по ХЗ не проходить
As always, another awesome restoration, keep bringing new life into old items bro 👍👍
I love my Moras, best knives I ever own. Feel good in the hand, size is baby bear just right. Sharp. Just great knives.
I ❤ MORA knive. Good job👍
I'm going to give you a 9/10 for that Rextoration. That's very close to the best I've ever seen. Looks like new. 😎
A beautiful restoration. 9+. You erased the stamp on the right side though.
Unbelievable. Great workmanship.👌
10 for sure , I enjoy watching your channel !
Beautiful knife Beautiful restoration good job well done
Another amazing restoration, I believe that knife looks better than it did when it was new! Great job!!
Amazing!
Nice
Such a great restoration.
I rate it 9.9, the sheath repair is as good as it can get, but a new sheath would be better.
That’s a 12! 👍😎👍
Amazing! Rating 10.

11 just nice and elegance 🇻🇪👍🏻💯👏
Amazing work on that very rusted Mora. I hope to discover on in the future. I would rate that a 10. E veryone of those I have seen has that broken section on the sheath's belt loop.
good job man.
Mantab sekali bos...kelihatan bagus sekali...
Very nice, 👍
great work 10/10 , love me a mora got more than a few
the ones we had in the airforce 1980 had a wooden handle and no finger guard and a very carbon steel blade.
Gotta give it a 9. If you engraved the made in Sweden back on the blade then it would be a 10
This is a 10/10
Крута робота! 12 балів!🙂👍
Beautiful work, have you ever tried sending videos like this to Mora and asking if they'd be willing to re-stamp the trademark back onto the blade?
Thank you! No, I didn't try
10/10. Hello from France 🇨🇵
Супер,я в захваті...10!
9/10 Points. If you had stained the handle it would’ve been 10.
trade mark at the blade desapear, but ok, nice restoration.
Красивый нож, и разбирать удобно. Вещь! 10/10

Eugen, du hast ein echtes Talent!!! 👏👏👏 🇺🇦👍👍👍
10!
WOW 😃😃💪💪👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
Very nice, I give it a solid 8. Have you considered nickel plating the small parts? A new sheath would have made it a 9.5. I have Mora knives and I always throw the plastic sheaths away and make a nice one.
Everyone that is not a fan of cleaning has one of these in some toolbox in Sweden
Lavender Dude watching this: "i had the same type of knife. I used it for doing the things i did"
You are my favorite no.1
Beautiful video! 10/10 if you had kept the lettering :)
Only down fall is nobody's going to know if it was a Frost knife you sanded of the maker's mark😮
I’ve seen you say it takes 10 plus hours to sand some of these things you restore, how many days all together does a restoration take?
Великолепная работа , но есть вопрос - для чего отмачивать клинок в нежную каком растворе , для снятия ржавчины , если все равно перед шлифовкой клинка вы обрабатывает его нождачкой. Может вымачивание можно просто пропустить ?
Awaome! Good as new! :)
Too bad you weren't able to keep the engraving.
90% of stuff made nowadays is not made to be able to be fixed/restored... A shame.... :/
May I ask how do you come across so many of this knives?
🙏💪
Dumb question but can’t the rotary brushes remove the rust as well? Seems like you’d be able to skip the vinegar bath and scrubbing step
If the rust is hard, then no. Also, the whole workshop will be in the dust
I have of those
I'm not an expert at all, I just like to watch different restoration videos, so a simple question arose - would it be a big time saver to have an elecric handheld belt sander, compared to a regular sandpaper?
Electric sander for rough processing. The finish will still have to be sanded by hand.
✌👍
What do you spray on the blade before sanding? WD40?
Вітаю! Яку краску ви використовували для ручки і як підібрали відтінок?
Шляхом візуального підбору. RAL 3005
Отлично, но спинка клинка у моры специально обработана нарочито грубо - она выполняет функцию кремня для добывания огня.
It would have been nicer, and more respectful to the former user and the maker, to keep the knife like in 5:55, with the logo intact and some lovely pitting. Only thing to add then is a sharp bevel. This extreme high polish is for knives not meant to be used again.
Жаль, клеймо на клинке затёр. А так работа на отлично.
I bet it wasn't that shiny when brand new.
Odd that they make the #1 with that strange guard and cut a large hole in their already flimsy basic sheaths. Strange. 🎸🔪
20 😊
