- If you are considering buying the Mora 163 hook knife I hope this video helps you make your decision. When I was considering different knives I would always look for videos of people actually using them.
I put a much longer handle on mine. (8"), and removed the edge from the "other" side, which has made it much more useful to me.
That sounds awesome! I especially like the idea of a longer handle!
@@BradAllenWoodworkingCo I must credit Robin Wood with giving me the idea in one of his videos.
The only 2 hook knives i own and use. I'm left handed, but some right-handed friends used them and they feel ok to thek as well.
I agree- as a right handed I love the double sided blades.
The new 163 is much thinner and tapers off at the tip, I use it for finishing aswell

Thanks!
Hello! I have the more 162 with Sharp Edge on both sides. And i always use pucjcuts, never the pullcuts. Im right handed.. it feels more natural to push for me. So i have been thinking om buying singelbladed 164 so i can get my finger at the spine for Harder cuts. But i see that i will have to buy the lefthanded to get the blade on the «right» side for me. Is this wrong? Should you always use the pullcuts? Any advantadges im missing?
Hey Tony!
I think it is all preference! I also would say don’t totally exclude any type of cut from use, because as you develop your carving skills I think you start to rely on a variety of grips and cuts.
You are correct with the left handed hook knife having the cutting edge on the right side.
Hope this helps!
@@BradAllenWoodworkingCo thanks man!
what do u use for finishing the teaspoons so that it will not destroy from time to time
I burnish with a smooth stone then use hempseed oil which I apply then wait at least a few weeks(the more time the better) before using. A beeswax solution could work well too, I have used cutting board oil/beeswax combo in the past.
