Cleaning a rare vintage Mora knife - this is not a restore

I got this rare 1950s-era Mora knife, model number 648, made by FMMattsson that needed some cleanup. Nothing major, just enough to make it perfect. The sheath was flawless and no work was needed.

I have one knife they stamp made in Sweden CNA be a mora have the same blade but I don't know how to sharpen

[@Oldmora]

The grind back then is the same as today in most Moraknives, it's a scandi grind with microbevel.

By any chance, what kind of blade steel being used for this knife?

[@Oldmora]

I am pretty confidente it’s a simple carbon steel. Unfortunately this maker closed in the early 1960s and very few technical info survived the test of times :(

May I ask what is the value of the knife in this condition nowadays?

[@Oldmora]

It’s always difficult to put a number on this models that are less recognized by the majority, as a Mora knife. I don’t remember exactly what I paid for it on the auction, but it was above 100€. In the right auction, with the right publicity and production description I see it maybe reaching 150-200€.
