I have two Frosts Mora screwed up knives, one is a modified hook knife (about 3/4 a circle like Ashley's) with a double edge, and the hoof knife which I cut the tip off of. The third crooked knife is one I made from a file, my first real knife made in 20 years, it needs sharpening too. Likely remember this weekend, use my belt grinder of which I have from 50x to 1200x belts, but have a pile of other things to focus on too, my new wool blanket shirt, sheath for my newly made bushcraft knife, cooking a roast tomorrow, etc.
Very nice Ash, compliments that wonderful Birch bark sheath in the background.
Will have to get around to making one for mine.

I'd give it a good rub over with oil, leave for about 5/10 mins and then wipe off excess.
As for sharpening a crook knife, have a look at this set of tutorials from Ben Orford.

Nice work Mr. Cawley
Finely made (not poorly)
Fulfills a need
And in the deed -
Was quite relaxing surely?
Hi Ashley please could you tell me which mora crook knife you use i'm not sure which model number to get to start with. Thanks
I think that my one is the same as Ashleys, whch is the 164, in my opinion it is the best all rounder and good for starting out.
Hope this helps, Robb
