New fan from Wales. These videos are addictive. Thank you Morakniv and Jogge

[@martinriley106]

I really enjoy watching your techniques in wood carving?

[@johngray9702]

I would work for one year. For food and shelter. That is how valuable your knowledge is.

[@trackerjacker0013]

A marvel. Needs his own program on PBS or DIY network.

[@stephans.5746]

From Germany I send my deepest respect for your useful teaching videos. Tusend tack

[@luisleivamaturana1]

Great series of videos with Jogge, thanks for sharing these

Fantastic tutorial on a beautiful spreader! Thanks Jogge!

[@ronmccarty7537]

That was absolutely fantastic! Thank you very much!

[@stonedape3285]

This is a form of asmr for me

[@MoraknivOfficial]

Yeah, we think so too. :)

[@lizs606]

Mesmerizing... Thanks for your lovely work

[@Rambouillet100]

These videos are the very best! Thank you!

[@quinntheeskimooutdoors6234]

😊very nice instructions and work. 😊 Thanks

[@mversantvoort]

This is great, thanks for the thorough explanation! I'll definitely be making this as soon as I get my hand on some (dry) birch wood.

[@MoraknivOfficial]

You should! Greetings from Mora :)

[@mversantvoort]

@@MoraknivOfficial Thanks! Now I'm rewatching the video, it looks like Jögge was actually using green/wet wood, is that correct? To later dry it (partly) before finishing the knife (not on video).

For a great video: _Tack så mycket!_

[@Ulumj08]

hi from russia! thank you☺

[@stevec-b6214]

i feel calm, like you are hypnotising me ;)

[@johngray9702]

Thank you so much for your video. I would love to be a student of yours.

[@lucybritton5083]

Thank you for your expert tuition. May I ask what saw you use please?

[@manguydude905]

It's the smallest folding saw made by Silky

[@jimmyrustler8983]

We had some high winds near where I live recently, and a Birch decided to drop a few widowmakers for me to cut up, and is drying out nicely as I write this. 👍

[@MoraknivOfficial]

What project to look forward to!

[@brokenrulerlabs]

Carvers across the world will tell you its all about the 11 hand positions with the blade. Stone carvers have this same sequence, so do rock climbers. When one examines Paleolithic stone tools, you start to see a very similar sequence of hand skills or grips.

[@MoraknivOfficial]

That's true! Universal knowledge. Greetings from the factory in Mora, Sweden.

[@johnjude2685]

I'm building carving knives for myself and a few extra for Buddies. I'm thinking over size handles so all owners have to hand fit their own and like a great fitting hammer handle the owners should fit themselves. QUESTION of the high carbon steel which steel would you like for a beginner BlackSmith in a small shop I've worked with 1095 but I'm asking 🤔 Cutting towards your thumb isn't truly towards your thumb that's safer. I'm trying not to aim at myself with knives and guns. Thanks for teaching me about safety Sir Thanks

The perfect knife to kill vampires 😂

[@TrainsAndTrees]

Yes. This is why we don’t have any vampires in Sweden anymore 😂 We are all equipped with our mighty smörkniv

[@BallistaClub]

Thank you for the great video. I have question regarding the green wood. If you are using green wood how you preventing it from splitting while drying? Only by wrapping it in piece of cloth ? Thank you and all the best to everyone watching! Alex

[@MoraknivOfficial]

Exaclty! Wrap it in a piece of cloth and let it dry slowly in a place where it's not too hot :)

[@BallistaClub]

@@MoraknivOfficial You are the best! Thank you a lot for the quick reply! Once again the whole series of "Swedish Knife Grip Sessions" is outstanding! I have a good collection of Mora knives and now it's even growing bigger! Just ordered the 120 to complete my set of woodworking knives!

[@ouchymytoe]

Excellent! Also, please identify the axe you are using, if possible.

[@trackerjacker0013]

Hi! I can ID that axe. Gransford Bruks Carving axe. Best I’ve ever used, but you pay for the craftsmanship. That one Jogge has is about $160.00 U.S.

[@ErrkaPetti]

Tracker Jacker - sorry, but the exact answer is Gränsfors Bruk sloyd axe ;-) - in Sweden around 1700:- SEK (160$ as you said)...

[@Swarm509]

@@trackerjacker0013 Well worth the money for the amount of axe you get. There are better ones, with much tougher steel or different shapes/weights, but the price can double or more and usually are hand forged.

[@benmorris7276]

Kan du snälla göra en video om slödning en dalahästar ?

Hello what wood are you using please

[@trackerjacker0013]

It’s birch. He said in the beginning
