How to sharpen a knife with scandi grind - Casström

Very nice. I have the No10 and folding knife and love them both. ATB🏕

Super video.

What model is the folding one used in this video? It's gorgeous.

Hello, thanks for the video, but I have a question: why do you need to sharpen the scandi edge if after that you add a micro secondary bevel? It looks more simple to me just to work on a secondary bevel directly. Also it would be less steel removed than sharpening the entire scandi edge.

Good video! Thanks!

What is that sharpening stone called?

Thx!
where can i buy the dimondsharper you are using in the video?

Thank you. Great camera placement, the scene is breathtaking!

Mineral oil works well for protection and is food safe.

Just so you guys know we don't know what a centimeter is, is that like close to a quarter inch? Or one eighth

Nice video thanks! Will you ever make a lars falt with bog oak handle?

Spotta på (spit on) a fine natural stone is someting grandpa suggested. He also recommended adding significant amount circular motions to get a very (very very) slight convexing.

Butter butt oil works the best .

Thanks for this informative video, could clove oil possibly be used also as a preventative.

What is the ideal sharpening level for a Scandi knife? Is 1000 degrees enough?

Actually free hand sharpening and stropping will convex the edge. That's ok and even makes for a more solid edge.

Micro beveling a scandi is NOT the way to sharpen a knife. You end up rounding the edge. Poor advice my friend.

1 When you have smaller stone like yours, you take stone to the knife not other way around
2 Entire point of scandi grind is not to have second bevel

People freaking out about the microbevel. If you want that flat bevel back just spend 30min on a rough stone. Whats the big deal? You modify the edge to your needs. Almost half of the vintage puukos I have handled have had a convex edge or distinctive microbevel for the simple reason that whoever used that knife needed that kind of grind.

When is this prototype stone going to be available please? Perfect size for my needs! 😁

Just bought the Casstrom Lars Falt. Beautiful knife, however my first day out with it I was cutting off a patch of feathered stick and smacked a close by rock and put little chips in the belly. Pretty upset about that.

Very nice vid! Would you please share the name of the knife you are using in the video??

Can you use water on the diamond stone or oil? Can you recommend a good diamond sharpener?

What grit stone to use?

I like your approach. Simple. Thank you

I make sure the diamond plate is always wet with water

It makes more sense to sharpen knives in longer strokes instead of ruining the geometry with what is shown in this video. And yes I‘m using a DC3 or 4 even on 16cm blades.

Good way to cut your thumb, not too bright. From St.Paul,M.

What grade of sharpener do you use. please?

Good morning! Great video, great tutorial! I have 3 jap waterstones, 400,1000,3000. I didn’t understand if you create microbevel, with higher angle passes on every stone or just in the finest? Can you inform me about this please?

Thank you for your video. I was just wondering tho that if you used Olive oil on you blade what would it do to your leather sheath over time? Have you ever used beeswax?

Great vid! Can you tell me what type of a knife you are using? A scandi folder?

For the knives that i use for carving after setting the bevel to zero on a stone i pull them a few times through the ceramic section of a pull through plastic sharpener , this way I don't erode the vulnerable soft steel on the cheeks excessively with stropping and everytime i get a razor edge to work with wood which seems quite ok and strong , only the ceramic part and only a few light passes every half an hour in carving i do that and i quit stropping all together.There is no micro bevel as well or maybe a micron level one.

What Knife and what sharpener any one have some links ?

Jag skulle vilja ha exakt typ av kvarn, tack.

I own the Lars Falt. The finest wilderness knife I've ever owned, and I'm a knife buff. Thanks!

Love that little knife, which brand is it?

Needs more close up my friend .

i just learned how to sharpen a scandi grind without making it look ugly thank you

I'm watching what you're doing but keep getting distracted by the breathtaking background. Now I am researching Casstrom products to buy...because I love this video so much!
