I have a big workshop coming up, so I'm handling up some more mora 106 blades. Here is a quick overview of my method:

The timber is oak, and I'm using a few simple tools. If you don't have a cordless drill or don't want to use one, I used to do this with a brace and bit - it works very well, just takes longer.

I plugged the through hole off camera - drilling from both ends means you don't need an extra long drill bit, and you don't have to shorten the tang. 106 tangs are very long because they go all the way through the factory handles.

Here is a link to my previous video on handling a sloyd knife:

In this older video I used green wood for the handle, and relied on shrinkage so that there was no glue needed. I still like this method, but using seasoned timber and some kind of glue is more reliable.

If you'd like to buy one of my custom moras, they are available here:
