Nice knife. Not so nice handle. March 29, 2010 Snarly (USA) FYI, the blade reads "Mora of Sweden", and there's a little product code sticker on the back of the plastic sheath that says "Made in Sweden". Mine did not come in an individual box.
I have no doubt this knife performs very well. I am a little disappointed about the plastic plug in the end of the handle. It is a good value buy.
OK knife March 12, 2010 Michael Eckhardt (Douglas, AK) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
What I like about this knife is the light weight, the grippy, comfortable handle and the fairly good cutting one can get from it.
What I don't like is that it's difficult to sharpen. It has one loooong edge and it's easy to imagine that one has to take off a lot of metal to get to the edge. That means either a coarse stone or a long time stoning. When folks refer to easy sharpening I suppose they mean that it's easy to hold at the right angle while sharpening. But that's precisely why it's difficult to sharepen as well.
The blade is skinny. It will flex, and with any kind of hard use, I suppose it will break as well. That's not exactly the kind of knife you would want to rely on. In my mind that makes this knife an 'around the shop", work, or every day knife. It should do well in that role.
The finish on the knife is rough. That's not important to what it does, but if you take delight in a quality piece you won't be happy. On the other hand, you won't regret abusing the knife somewhat because of that very feature either. Then on the other hand again, you can't abuse it too much because it is too weak for that.
So, to sum up, a good knife for the price with serious limitations. The limitations are that if you use it for bushcraft, then it's the occasional camping trip or weekend in the woods by your house or a well traveled park. The primary use for a knife like this is where if you break it or damage it to the point of unuseability, you can reach in the drawer and replace it with another. That's omething you can do with this knife, as it's cheap enough to get several for the price of a higher quality knife.
awesome bushcraft knife March 4, 2010 patrick frank (bel air, maryland, US) this knife is incredibly useful, i use it mainly for bushcraft, and it preforms very well.
Great simple tool....good value March 4, 2010 Kevin J. Morang (Rome, GA United States) I bought this knife for my daughter to use in Girls Scouting and put it on a lanyard to wear as a neck-knife. It will be a great tool at a great price.
Not a bad buy... February 28, 2010 E. Arellano (cali) Ordered on 2/24/10. Came in on 2/27/10. Awesome time on shipping. Knife is sharp as heck. Sheath is ok. Theres a healthy sounding click when the knife is settled in. As with the other reviews, it wont slip out when you hold it upside down and shake it. I wish the sheath had a full loop but its only a standard clip on. Its the only reason I didnt give it a 5 star. Probably look online for a leather sheath. It'll be my fishing knife/camping knife. Real great deal on a real good knife. You wont be disappointed.
