Great tutorial Felix.
As 2023 fades away, I'd like to say thank you for all the tips and tricks you passed along this year. You are one of the nicest guys on UA-cam with your helpfulness and genuine interest in helping others. Merry Christmas to you and your family and all the best for 2024 man!
Hello James. Your Comment makes me very happy! Thank you very much and happy holidays!
James, that's a great thing to say. I agree. I think that this video is a great Christmas gift to all of us. Thanks, Felix.
Merry Christmas to both of you.@@FelixImmler
And do not worry about your English please , you are easy to listen to . Thanks for your videos Felix .
Felix you get so excited when you’re talking about the spine of the knife that I can’t help but get excited!👍🙏🏻❤️
Yes i know that and i will make a video about!
MEIN LIEBER FREUND🤗 unglaublich was du zeigst. uns sooooo vielfältig. das fisch schuppen mit dem von dir vorbereiteten messer ist zu genial mit den vielen fischen im hintergrund. top inhalt und wie immer schön erklährt mit so viel lebensfreude. DANKE FELIX
Haa ha haa, danke mein lieber Freund😅 Aber das Wissen habe ich von Dir! Ich wünsche Dir schöne Festtage... und bis bald...!
I mentionied a card scraper edge on the spine in a previous video's comment(where I said that it can be good if it is put on the tail of the venture).
thanks for mentioning my idea and watching the video i recommanded.
But my method of making a quick(not so sharp) card scraper edge in the outdoors is using a tungsten cardbide machine tool as a burnisher. It is sharper than the burnisher and would creat a perfect burr, but this sharpness allows knives with non-perfect 90degree edges to take a burr.
Thank you so much for showing my idea in a video, I totally did not expect it!
I always love learning from many different fields and take inspiration from them into my own field
Thanks a lot for your super interesting comment!
Some of the best knife information, tips and tricks on UA-cam! Merry Christmas and all the best to you and your family Felix!
Your comment makes me very happy. Thank you so much!
Thanks Felix for all your hard work! Best wishes for all your future endeavours.
Thank you so much for this kind comment!
I've been running a burr like this for some years now on all my bushcraft knives and honestly wouldn't be without it because of the many uses. My method to produce the burr very similar to the one you're describing. I use a honing steel mostly but also have a tool made from an old blunt router bit where I use the shaft rather than the blade of course. Great video and a very happy Christmas to you.
Thank you so much for this super interesting feedback!!
Either High Speed Steel (HSS) or Tungsten (preferred!) for turning the burr & burnishing!!!
Thanks Felix, loved it. I'm an engineer and long time knife lover and would like to add something to the commentary about how you ground the knife spine. I really liked how you did it. There are risks to your person every time you pick up an edge tool and if you cannot manage those risks you should not be handling sharp things. Of course, there are recommended ways of handling sharp things and that's fine, but we need to be able to recognise risk and to weigh it against any potential benefit. If you cannot do this, you will not last in a true survival situation. I've taken to doing it as you showed in the video, mostly because of physical limitations; it's just more comfortable for me. For most of my life, I've had high-risk physical jobs where there were little options available, so, learning to recognise risks and assess how to best approach any given task was the best survival tool I had. Again, if you can't understand what the pointy or slicey bits of knives can do to you (and how to stop it happening), don't use sharp things like knives. Keep up the good work, and thanks again.
Thanks a lot for your very interesting feedback!
Greetings Felix. Excellent video as always. I must admit i never thought of creating a bur on my knives. They are all 90 degrees, but you've inspired me to go further. Thank you again for providing the best informative, and practical content. Happy holidays to you and your family.
Thanks a lot for your positive feedback. I wish you happy holidays!
The 90 degree spine on a folding saw or leatherman of victorinox saws are also pretty great.
Yes, but they don't have a pressed burr
This is one of those guys where I hit like before I watch the video. Always impressive videos!
Your comment makes me happy. Thank you very much!
Great advice.
I usually tape the sharpened edge of my knives before they go up to a grinder...safety first! 😊
Thanks for this great hint!
@@FelixImmler :- Thank you for your videos!
At the tip of a Mora blade there is actually about a centimeter of sharp spine where the Scandi bevel ends. This can be used as an emergency option for creating sparks with a ferrocerium-rod.
Hahaha. I had to re-grind my Morakniv to be able to strike on the ferrorod. Well done Felix! Excellent! GREAT DEMO OF ALL THE STEPS! THE BEST VIDEO DEMONSTRATION OF CREATING A BURR! All the best, Rob der Dinosaurier vom Fricktal
Danke mein lieber Fricktaldinosaurier 😂
On my bushcraft knife, I keep the distance where my thumb can reach, (around 2 inches), rounded, for carving, and the rest of the blade towards the tip, I keep very sharp ( 90 degrees, ),,
So, I have the best of both worlds I think,, 🤔🤔🔪🔪,,
Great video Felix,,
Merry Christmas to you and your family, 🎅🎅👍👍
Well done! I wish you the same!
very technical video this time. But you give a lot of options for everyone to work on a good sharp spine. Thank you very much.
Thanks a lot for your positive feedback!!!
Hi Felix, the opinions in case of a spine should ve sharp or rounded are different and there are many of them. I also like a sharp spine more than a rounded one, because it's simply an additional tool. Thanks for another very interesting and useful video and i wish you and your familiy Merry Christmas, some hopefully relaxing days and a great start into the new year 2024! LG
Thank you very much for your positive feedback and you kind wishes!
Felix, tack så mycket för att du delar med dig av användbar Felix, tack så mycket för att du delar med dig av användbar kunskap👍👌😉
You are very welcome!
Mate, even I learned quite a few new things from this clip!
Keep up the great work, Felix.
All the best,
Ben from OZ.
Hello Ben. What an honor that you watched my video! I'm really happy about your positive comment! Thank you for your great work on your channel. Kind regards from Switzerland
Felix
I really enjoy how much joy you seem to get out of sharing this information. A safe, healthy, and happy New Year to you!
Thanks so much for such an informative video. Extremely helpful!
I love learning more ways to use my knives!
Thank you so much my friend!
Felix you make me love my victorinox knives (kitchen and Swiss army) even more
excelent sharpening methods, i spend a lot of time talking to people about sharpening... awesome stuff ....
You comment makes me happy! Thank you very much!
Thanks for this information Felix, I am a big fan of Mora knives and have now put a 90 degree spine on mine and can finally use it as a ferro rod sparker. I never realised it was the angle, I thought it was maybe the metal used. So thank you again for this fantastic Christmas present of being able to upgrade my simple Mora. Enjoy your Christmas and look forward to seeing your videos in the new year
Your comment makes me happy! Thank you and enjoy your holidays!
Thank you and Merry Christmas!
I wish you the same...thank you!
This is a wonderful video and very well explained! I really do like your homemade burnisher. Also, Merry Christmas to you and yours and enjoy your UA-cam break!
Thank you so much my friend! I'm looking forward to the new year and hope for a nice project together!
@@FelixImmler Indeed. Sounds great!
With a metal file and sharpening stones, I created a scraping surface on the inside straight portion of the lockable cap lifter on a 111 mm Soldatenmesser 08 SAK. The liner lock makes it easy and safe to use this DIY - about 12 mm long - scraping surface for tasks like striking a fire steel.
Super idea! Thanks a lot for your comment!
I am absolutely doing this to all of my bushcraft and camping knives!
Thank you Jesse!
Hallo Felix, vielen Dank für die wertvollen Tipps! Wünsche dir und deiner Familie eine besinnliche und erholsame Weihnachtszeit. LG Micha
Vielen Dank lieber Micha, das wünsche ich Dir auch!
I also have a bushcraft knife with the edge on the back and I use it very often for various things, excellent advice, greetings friend Felix
Your English is great Felix and I appreciate all of your explanation of this process!💪😎👍
I just ordered a venture today!!
Super... thank you!
Wow! Now I know why my burr-free spine underperforms. More grinding just won't do it. Who knew? Felix, I never miss your videos...always learn something useful!
Your comment makes me happy! Thank you so much
Bought the Venture to gauge its quality before I want to buy the pro for my brother for his 40th birthday and I wanted to see how good they are before getting the more special and slightly more expensive one.
The quality is absolutely top notch! Very impressive, and I'm very happy with my purchase. So I guess he'll have a nice present for his birthday.
Thanks for this video! I am going to try to put a 90 degree spine on my Svord Peasant Mini with a simple file so I can use it with a ferro rod.
I had to sharpen the spine on a fairly expensive bushcraft knife so I could use it like you demonstrated. But, I was in the field and had to use my Leatherman file on it. It took a little while, but I got a nice sharp spine that should have been on it when it was made.
Thanks a lot for your interesting comment
Great video, Felix! I love a good, sharp 90° spine!
Thank you very much!
Felix, I'm looking forward to all the new videos of next year. Extremely enjoyable, always fun, and very informative!!!
Thanks a lot for this wonderful compliment!
Learned something new! Thank you. Also we all make simple mistakes like grinding the knife backwards, no big deal. You turned out alright lol
Agree it is more a compromise you have to choose to,for what purpose you want to use it for.
Merry Christmas and a great New Year to you and your loved ones
Yes of course...that's right.
I wish you wonderful holidays
excellent advice. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Good to see some of the old skills coming back and people might start to see how people managed better and did more before "super steels".
Du zeigst, dass nich nur das Sackmesser ein Multitool ist, sondern auch das feststehende! Ich wünsche Dir und Deinen Lieben schöne Feiertage!
Danke Thomas. Dein Kommentar freut mich immer besonders! Ich wünsche Dir und deiner Familie auch tolle Festtage!
Wow! Today I learned something really important! That was one of the best demonstrations videos I've ever viewed! It's amazing what a huge difference that such a little extra effort/skill can accomplish! I can't wait to try it out on one of my knives!
Thank you for a great Christmas present here on Christmas eve!
Wishing you and your family a happy and blessed Christmas and an exciting and productive New Year!
I'm waiting (impatiently perhaps?) for the latest news about the Venture improvements!
Cheers Felix!
Your comment makes me happy!! Thank you very much. i wish you and your family also a fantastic new year!
I completely agree, I used a file to obtain a 90-degree spine on my mora companion. I consider that feature essential in a outdoors knife.
Buon natale Felix!
Thank you very much!
Many thanks! my Mora companion is going to get this treatment! at work we have 10mm hardened pins, I will put one into a wooden file handle for the burnishing stage, thank you for passing on your experience and knowledge my friend, it is appreciated.
Thank you for a wonderful and informative year.
Thanks a lot for your support!
Great video! A Dremel w/a rough grit and wrench held against a flat surface also can work with steady hands and patience.
Thanks for your tip!
Nice job on the burr demo - one of the best I have seen. Have you done a clip on how to make leather lacing? An old trapper trick was to stick the knife in a block of wood, put a hole in a scrap piece of leather or hide, start a little piece and pull - the leather rotates around the blade and you can pull off a long, even piece of leather - good for repairing traditional rawhide snowshoes or just making lacing for whatever task you need.
Merry Christmas, Mr Immler... (from Brazil).
I wish you the same!
Just discovered your channel loving the content especially the tips and tricks with a sak now your compulsory viewing for cubs scouts and venture scouts
Love the saw in the Swisstool, it can easily strike a ferro rod or scrape stuff. But for fixed blades i used a rough diamond sharpener to get a 90 degree angle, even my daily carry knife has this because it is indeed very useful:)
I am doing the 60 degree angle on my Moras with the Work sharp field sharpener and it is working amazingly well. I am sharpening close to the end of the blade, opposite from your technique as i was cutting my finger when too close but will probably changing the edge sharpening but still i want to have it at least 2 cm from the handle as sometimes for precision i use the thumb. I agree completely that further the sharpening edge is , more difficult to operate is.Great tutorial and tips again!!!
I thought a nice angle like that could possibly be very useful. Any safety drawbacks that you may have noticed while carrying or using?
👋🔥✌Hello, Felix. Thenk's á lot for a good knowledge 👍✌🎆🎄🎉
Very welcome!
I love your video, Felix - you are clearly used to handling tools and have had a lot of practice. Any new thing I learn from someone like you I always take it slowly when trying for myself, and that includes how I use the grinder etc - with care as you did. I suppose we could all do things very safely or not, but your videos are targeted at people with some knowledge of the handling and using knives, and sharpening the spine probably is only done by a miniscule percentage of people with knives. I loved the burnishing- pure genius. And thank you for your openness and generosity sharing who/where you got the idea from in support of their channel too. Thank you again 🙏
Wowww, you words makes me happy! Thank you very much for this compliment!
Very useful techniques - and your English is absolutely fine, Felix. Thanks for all the great videos you've produced in 2023. Happy holidays to you and your family.
That's a wonderful idea 💡. I've used wood scrapers before but never thought of burnishing the spine of a knife like a wood scraper. Merry Christmas to you and your family, keep up the good work and God bless
Thanks for your excellent instruction 💯👍👍
Thanks a lot for taking the time and watching my videos!
Merry Christmas! Thank you for all your videos!
You are very welcome!
Thank you for your videos and tutorials. I wish you and your family a great christmas and a lovely time off. Greetings from germany.
Vielen Dank, das wünsche ich Dir auch!!
Der letzte Tipp ist echt hilfreich das Kante ich so noch nicht, Dankeschön
Freut mich sehr! Danke für das Feedback!
Thank you for this video. I have a Mora and the spine is rounded. I will definitely try this.
And merry Christmas to you and your family!!
Thank you very much!
Ein Messer, was man als Victorinox-Nerd unbedingt besitzen muß. Da ist euch wirklich ein Meisterstück gelungen💪💯❤️👍🏼
Danke für das Lob!
Great video Felix, thank you for sharing all your videos this year. I wish you and your family a happy Christmas
Thank you very much. I wish you the same!
When I will finally get this blade, I will be on the expert of the tool!😅
Yes..do this. Thank you so much my friend for your support during the 2023!
Mora Garberg has one hell of a sharp spine. Great video Felix. Loved it. You and family stay safe and you all have a wonderful Christmas.
But make a burr on the Garbeg and you will see, that it works even better!
@@FelixImmler don’t trust myself doing it as I know I’ll ruin it lol 😂.
Ja lieber Felix, genau so wird es gemacht!👍👍👍 Ob und in welcher Intensität man es braucht, muss jeder selber entscheiden, wie du ja selbst sagst.
Lieber Felix, vielen Dank für deine tollen Videos und deine super Tipp's! Ich wünsche Dir und Deiner Familie ein friedliches Weihnachtsfest, erholsame Feiertage und ein gesegnetes, gesundes neues Jahr! Ganz liebe Grüße aus dem oberösterreichischen Hausruckviertel!🤗
ich wünsche Dir auch wunderschöne Festtage! danke für deinen wertvollen Support im 2023!
Thanks for this I shall do this soon
Your only as sharp as your knife
Ich glaube, das deine English viele besser als meine Deutsche ist. Ich kann nur "Wo ist der Bahnhof, bitte?" Oder, "Ich habe meine Feuerzeuge verloren." Vielen Danke, für deine sehr gut Videos, Herr Immer!
Tschüss! 👋🤠
Danke für das Lob!
Great information about using a burnisher on the spine of a knife. A polished drill bit shaft should also make a good burnisher. A lot of information in your videos!
Thank you very much!
Felix, war schon immer so, ein scharfer "Rücken" kann entzücken.....bei einem Messer, das man als Arbeitsmesser nutzt, da ist sowas echt desöfteren mal hilfreich.....und ein Victorinox Messer ist immer auch ein "Multitool", wie man hier anhand deiner Beispiele sehen kann....good job! 🙂
Dir und deinen Lieben ein schönes Weihnachtsfest gewünscht....stay sharp & Peace,
Stephan
Danke lieber Stephan! Ich wünsche Dir auch fantastische Festttage!
Excellent as always. btw you'll find almost every wood type, even green shaved with a carpenters scraper or your new spines will take a flame from a firesteel.
Thanks a lot for this great idea!
Good points on the spine. I think that's overlooked or not understood by so many manufacturers.
Thanks a lot for your positive feedback! greetings from Switzerland
Merry christmas and a great 2024. Thanks for all the video's this year.
Thanks a lot for watching them!
Awesome!
Thank you very much!
You know [to use an overused US phrase], I was married to an artist and raised by engineers... Brother, you are both! Love your videos. Even though I've been away from watching for a while. I do love an edge dedicated to scraping! Great jig! I've many hours using clamps and surface grinders in industry, so love seeing a home shop device!
Merry Christmas Felix! Thank you!
Thank you very much! i wish you the same!
Grande Felix😊
Thank you very much!
lieber Felix- schöne Weihnachten und einen guten Rutsch. Und vielen Dank für all diese informativen Videos- für deine liebevolle und positive Art und bleib so und schönen Urlaub!😂👍🏽
Danke gleichfalls. LG aus der Schweiz!
Good video Felix , thanks for sharing YAH bless you my friend
Thank you so much for your support during the 2023!!!
I've never played with sharpening the spine on my knives. I'm going to go try it with one of my cheap Moraknivs before I try on a Victorinox though!
Good idea!
i got a hultafors ok4, that has a sharp spine. can try that too. though carbon steel. it is ludicrously strong 😂
Gruezi Felix!!Thats a very good Hack,already tuning my Morakniv,a shame that i never thought on this myself....
Thanks a lot for this great feedback!!
Great!
Thanks a lot!
Excellent! Your homemade jigs are great. Maintaining 90 degrees at all times is crucial and thus the jigs are needed. One little roll away from 90 degrees when grinding and you have ruined it…I know from experience!
Thanks a lot for your positive feedback!
Kool super👍🖐🤠
Thanks a lot!
So much practical knowledge & ingenuity. Happy New Year Felix!

Thank you very much! i wish you the same!
Happy Holidays to you and your family, Mr Felix. Thanks for all the videos this year
Thank you very much for your support!
Another place you will find an exceptional sharp and square spine for scraping wooden and using a fire striker is on the wood saw blade on the Swiss Army Knife - it's as sharp as a cabinet scraper. Merry Christmas to you and your kin Mr Immler 🌲, I've thoroughly enjoyed your channel and can't wait to see what you bring us in 2024 🍻
Ive been contemplating doing this with my Mora Companion HD for a long while.
Time to give it a go.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Thank you and good luck!
@FelixImmler I did it today, thank you. I was too wary of using power tools, so I put the knife in a vice and used a file. I then finished with successively finer diamond stones.
It was a great success, with a neat finish, and it showers plentiful sparks of a ferro rod.
Thank you for the motivation.
I've got the Morakniv Garberg, which has a carbon steel blade and is flat ground. I also have several of the lower end Morakniv blades and they are definitely stamped out and without a flat ground spine!!!--will have to tweak those on my Ken Onion Worksharp!!! Interestingly, the burnishers used for honing the burr on card scrapers are made out of tungsten metal and are MUCH harder than the steel of the card scraper! Thanks Again for the Great Video Felix and MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! 🎄🎄🎄
Thanks a lot for your super interesting comment!
This was a very informative video.
I have several knives to fix the spines on.
Thanks again for a great video.
Merry Christmas and a prosperous new year to all.
Thank you very much. I wish you the same!
Happy Christmas Felix from northern Sweden and thank you for a great year of videos and look forward to 2024 with Felix Immler. All the best mate.
Thank you very much for this wonderful compliment!
Outstanding stuff, thanks Felix and happy Christmas
Thank you..i wish you the same!
I just use a utility blade dolphin knife
and a modified hand vise for files for utility blades and reciprocating blades for everything . I use the the thicker utility blades otherwise will snap and brake . Thats a neat trick using a drill bit backwards .
Thanks a lot for your interesting feedback!
Excellent video! Sehr toll.
Danke für das Lob!
