People warn these are tricky to sharpen but offer no advice.** A: This particular Mora hook blade should come sharp out of the package. To keep it sharp, and get it even sharper, I recommend using a curved leather strop (Beavercraft Hook Knife Strop, about $30 bucks) and green or white sharpening compound. Basically, I use my strop any time I feel the blade is not cutting at its sharpest. I can detect that the cuts are requiring more pressure, so I run the blade on the strop several passes on both sides as needed, testing the cutting ability of the blade each time, and repeating the stropping if necessary. This seems to keep the blade optimal throughout the project. A more budget-friendly option is to use a dowel (use a 5/8" diameter dowel) with a fine grit wet-dry sandpaper glued to it. It might behoove you to have a variety of grits from 600 up to 1000 with a polishing compound rubbed onto the paper, but the heavier grits would be reserved for more intensive sharpening. There are articles and videos online detailing different methods of this. Just don't use the rougher grits if your blade only needs a touch up. Once your blade is sharp, you only need to strop it as needed or use a very fine grit to maintain its edge. In fact, I don't recommend sharpening stones or lower grits unless your blade shows signs of minor nicks or damage that needs smoothing out. To detect nicks or significant dull areas, look at the blade dead-on with a bright light behind you (that is shining on the blade edge) and look for small bright spots/reclective areas on the blade edge. If you have a magnifying glass or strong magnification reading glasses, it is a breeze to examine the edges of any of your blades or chisels. Tiny bright areas along the blade are where it has been nicked or flattened and needs to be brought back to a fine edge. A fine edge shouldn't show brighter and darker areas, but should be uniform in appearance. You shouldn't see light reflecting from the blade edge. There are also cylindrical diamond knife sharpeners that would work if the blade is dull and needs more than a strop and compound touch-up. Hope this helps. ## Frequently Bought Together - Morakniv Wood Carving Double-Edge Hook Knife - Morakniv Wood Carving Knife 120 - Morakniv Wood Carving Knife 106 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/129620836-carving-hook-162-mixed-fixed-knife-handle-natural-birch-blade](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/129620836-carving-hook-162-mixed-fixed-knife-handle-natural-birch-blade) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-08-28*
