Restoring a Morakniv Knife (and why you should care)

One more knife from the "projects" box brought back to life.
This time is a vintage Frost N.386 in carbon steel, probably from the 1970s.
This knife needed a lot of work and elbow grease but its now ready another 50 years of work.
In another video, I will make a replica of the original sheath out of leather.

Frost was one of the initial makers in Mora, operating since the 1890s and still exists today as part of the Morakniv group.
All work done with only hand tools readily available.
Sharpening stones used:
Cheap Chinese 80 & 120 grit diamond stone
DMT Yellow WM8FC Fine Coarse 220-600
DMT 6000
AUTOSOL Metal Polish
