Questions & Answers
Although there is some debate about the exact steel used, I believe it is very close to, if not exactly 1095. When I first saw it online, I couldn't understand why it cost nearly three times as much as a Mora Companion HD. Until I got it, that is. The knife is extremely solid, with no softer laminated rolled steel wrapped around a 1095 thin inner core layer like many other Mora knives. This is a very powerful knife, and I have no reservations about using it to baton with.
The knife measures 4 inches in length and weighs a total of 4 ounces. The sheath weighs in at 1 pound and 34 ounces. 4 oz
This is an old question, but I just wanted to add my two cents, for whatever it's worth, for anyone else who might be looking at it. I saw a video on YouTube of a man who wanted to re-start his career. take care of his Mora He was not only unable to break the handle off, but he also had to use a sawzall to cut it off with the knife clamped in a vice, which took another 5-minutes. That'll take about ten minutes. The handle appeared to be molded around the tang and made of a tough plastic, rather than being simply attached to it. It's made of a very durable plastic.
Because of the palm swell, I have medium hands and own the Robust, which is my least favorite Mora. I recently received the Bushcraft, and the handle is a world apart, far more comfortable. It perfectly separates your index and middle fingers. It's still bigger and gives me a handful, but it lacks the Robust's lump in the middle feel. Don't get me wrong, the Robust is still the knife in my BoB, and it will be for the foreseeable future. Even if it's not your favorite Mora, it's still a workhorse that can outlast most knives.
Selected User Reviews For Morakniv Bushcraft Knife, Black
That's not the case; this is a very nice knife, and the holster has completely ruined it for me. I had this with me at work for one day, and I can tell you it's not made to be pulled out of the sheath repeatedly; it's a limited accessibility item apparently because I'd be afraid to take it out in the woods now because it has little to no retention. I Inside the sheath, there's a plastic rib that rubs against the rubber to keep the knife in place, but what happens when the rubber wears away? I can turn it upside down and it falls out with only a little movement! Mora, you made a bad decision! (Way to sour an otherwise enjoyable experience) More than likely, I'll be returning it to Amazon, where I'm sure they'll have no problem doing so, and searching for something that I know will be there for me when I need it!.
To begin with, I've owned a number of Morakniv knives, all of which were of exceptional craftsmanship and materials. This knife is of the same high quality as the others. The handle appeals to me because it is both comfortable and natural-feeling. The blade has a solid, hefty feel to it. duty for a knife that isn't all that big It does a good job of maintaining its edge. Although the black finish is attractive, it is susceptible to rust. br>br>However, I have two major criticisms of this knife: first, while the square edge is useful for scraping ferro rods, a rounded edge is more comfortable when cutting by pressing the back of the knife with your thumb, as the square edge digs into your thumb. I suppose you get used to it, and if you do it frequently enough, your thumb will develop a callous, but I prefer the rounded edge. After all, all of my ferro rods come with small metal scrapers, and scraping a ferro rod with the back of a knife removes the knife's black finish, making it more rust-prone. Ideally, one side of the back should be squared for scraping a ferro rod, while the other should be rounded for pressing with your thumb. Morakniv is unlikely to produce such a design because it would necessitate both right- and left-handers. left-handed and right-handed versions in both hands To make one side of this knife more rounded, I might try using a metal sanding tool. The sheath is where I have my second criticism. The sheaths of the other Morakniv knives I own all have a small thumb tab on the top that makes removing the knife from your belt/pocket super simple and intuitive; you don't have to think about it. The Bushcraft Black sheath, on the other hand, lacks a thumb tab, making it more difficult to remove the knife. When removing the knife, I still use my thumb on the top of the Bushcraft Black sheath, but instead of a nice wide thumb tab, I have to use only the thin edge of the sheath itself, which is more difficult. There are some indentations on the side of the Bushcraft Black sheath where the thumb tab would be, which I assume are supposed to help give grip when removing the knife, but I've found that they don't really do anything and don't provide enough purchase Before purchasing the Bushcraft Black, I used a Compaion knife. The Companion does not have a black finish, and it has a different style handle, but neither of these handles bothers me. The blades of the Companion and Bushcraft Black are nearly identical in size and width, with the exception that the Bushcraft Black is slightly longer and heavier. The Companion has a higher level of responsibility than the Companion, but only by a small margin. The back of the Companion blade has rounded edges, making it more comfortable to press your thumb into. I prefer the Companion's sheath because it has a small thumb tab that makes it easier to remove the knife from your belt or pocket. I'm not sure why the Bushcraft Black was stripped of that feature. The Morakniv Companion Heavy Duty Knife with Sandvik Carbon Steel Blade is also half the price. br>br>In conclusion, the Morakniv Bushcraft Black is a great knife, but I would recommend the Morakniv Companion Heavy Duty Knife with Sandvik Carbon Steel Blade instead.
What the hell is going on? I'm not sure why I didn't get it sooner. I'm a big fan of Mora's and have always had a few around, but I've never invested in some of the more expensive options. This thing is so much better than the companion (which isn't bad at all) that it's impossible to compare the two. This device's ergonomics were tailor-made for my hand. The scandi grind is like a hot knife through butter when it comes to cutting through wood. Oh, and did I mention your ferro rod should have a 90-degree spine? That's true as well. It is necessary to maintain the high carbon steel - However, it is well worth the effort. The edge retention is excellent, comparable to 1095 high carbon. This is something I really enjoy. I know it's not a full tang, but Mora is a pro. If you're on the fence about it, this is the place to be. now is the time to purchase.
This Bushcraft knife has a carbon steel blade and is a refined version of the Morakniv Companion Heavy Duty knife. The Companion knife is less than half the price of the Bushcraft knife, but the Bushcraft comes with a few extra features. Both knives have carbon steel blades and are 3 inches long. Both are less than 6 oz and are 2mm thick. With a length of 4 inches, the Bushcraft blade is slightly longer. 25". Bushcraft blades are approximately 2. 25 inches long. 5mm wider and tungsten-coated in black The Companion's handle is dark green with a soft black non-slip grip. saunter over- The majority of it was covered in mold. The Bushcraft handle is dark green and has a soft, black non-slip grip. saunter over- mold, but it's the overcrowding that's causing the problem Almost the entire handle is covered in mold. The Bushcraft has a more pronounced finger guard and an index finger groove, as well as grooves in the over-hand. For the thumb and palm, there is a mold. Both handles have a similar feel to them, as do the molded plastic sheaths. Two belt clips are included with the bushcraft sheath and can be snapped into the sheath's back slot. The belt loop on the Companion's sheath is a closed loop molded into the sheath and will accommodate a 1 3/4" belt. br>br>These knives are very similar, so if you only get one, decide if the enhancements are for you. These knives are ideal for a wide range of outdoor activities. Whether you're going hunting, camping, hiking, or simply cooking, out. On YouTube, you can find Morakniv knives. They're so durable that you can use them to baton or drive nails. You can easily carve tent pegs or a steak with them because they are so sharp.
