Mora Bushcraft Orange

I love this knife. It feels great in the hand and I love these sheaths. The knife fits snugly and the optional belt loops are a nice touch. I just wish that the clip style belt loop was big enough for a 2” wide
belt.

It was shaving sharp from the factory, feather sticks very well, is great for batoning wood and the 90 degree spine scrapes a ferro rod very well. Lots of control when performing tasks and the blade is thick enough that I can use it with confidence. I specifically wanted this high-vis orange because sometimes your mind is focussed on other things and you lose track of where you set your knife and sheath down.

There are a few things I don’t like about it: One is that the blade is not as robust as I would have hoped. I knocked it off a 2’ high retaining wall and it hit the pavement leaving 3 small nicks in the blade. Luckily with a few seconds on a belt sander it was all cleaned up. Second, I noticed that the handle material absorbed the smell of the camp fire smoke. Not a big deal if you are just using it around camp, but it’s not desirable when hunting.

Great service, package arrived quickly and without incident

Since purchase I've taken it out twice on multi day trips. Both times it was very nice to use. The high contrast orange color is great because it's hard to miss if left somewhere by accident. I thought I would like the belt loop attachment more, however the clip ended suiting my needs better (I bought pants where the waist has an elastic back half, and string front, MEC Mica Straight Leg). The knife is very sharp. The handle feels much nicer than the Mora Companion HD, so I felt the difference in price was worth it.

Comment on COE: Shipping was very quick! Thanks

I have only used the knife a few times but I am very happy with it for the value

Comes razor sharp out of the box and the back is great for use with fire starters.

Great knife. Meets expectations and beyond!

I love this knife.
I had for many years on camping trips used a classic Buck Knife 119, also a beautiful knife, but just too pretty and sentimentally valuable to subject to rough and tumble field work. I'm a traditionalist so the blaze orange synthetic handle threw me a bit but I decided I was going to place function over aesthetics this time and look for something very utilitarian. And the colour has actually really grown on me...its amazing how handy it is to be able to find where you left it with a quick scan of your site (if you take it off your belt for some reason).
I made a simple pass/fail test for my next knife; It had to be both well built enough AND expendably cheap enough that I could use it to dig a hole with. That was it. If I felt I could hack away in the dirt among the pine needles and roots and not be afraid to duff it off the Canadian Shield granite, then nothing else in camp work would do it any harm.
This is the knife for that kind of work. I have abused the hell out of it. It has batoned firewood by the cord, cut opened cans of beans, popped beer caps, sliced cooking onions, cleaned fish (not the best at this but in a pinch it'll do), cut rope, been subjected to knife throwing contests, dug cat holes, struck fire steels, cracked open mussels, whittled and been pounded and dropped and thrown and left uncleaned for weeks etc etc etc. I used it once to chisel through a fibreglass patio chair seat to make an improvised latrine "throne"...
The Scandi grind has chipped numerous times but you just sharpen it up and keep going.
If you want an heirloom, or a pretty knife, theres a million other options; Helle etc. If you want a knife you could trust your life to but not cry over if you accidentally deep six'd it in Opeongo...buy this one.
I guarantee you, you are not tougher than this knife. And if you are, hats off to sir or madame, you can certainly afford to replace it. Buy with confidence.
Happy Camping!
