Mora Outdoor Knife available in Black

If you are looking for a stainless steel Bushcraft knife, then this is a really good place to look. If you are just starting out, then I think you should buy this knife as opposed to something cheaper. If you take care of It, it will last a lifetime, and will blow any other knife out of the water for value. I have owned about 10 Bushcraft knives over the past 10 years, ranging from £10 to £350, and I can honestly say that this can compete with any of them. I'll break down my review into segments First of all I'd like to mention that the build quality is impeccable. I would expect nothing less from a quality maker such as Mora, but this is on a whole other level, and the materials used are of a much higher quality than their lower-end knives such as the Companion. The handle- the handle is made of polymer with a rubberised insert. The tang sticks out of the bottom of the knife which can be used to scrape a Fire steel, scrape tinder, or pound things. The first thing you notice when you hold it is how sturdy the handle feels. The polymer is very well moulded, very dense, and has a good weight to it. It does not feel cheap in the slightest. Even with this, the ergonomics are the best part. It's not a thin handle, but not overly-thick either. It feels absolutely fantastic in your hand, and it fills it so well that even with extended use it doesn't have any hotspots. I wear large gloves and it fits me perfectly, with room to spare. The blade- the blade is stainless steel, Sandvik 14C28N, which is a noticeable upgrade from the Sandvik 12C27 used on their lower-priced models. It has a thicker blade than something like the Companion, which lends itself to a Bushcraft knife. The spine of the knife is left un-finished intentionally so it can be used to strike fire-steels, which is does exceptionally well. The heat-treatment on the steel is perfect in my opinion. It keeps it's edge for an impressive amount of time, whilst being tough enough to withstand harder-use tasks such as batonning without chipping or rolling. I have used it to baton, carve, make feather sticks, cut food, and used it for pretty much everything you'd want a Bushcraft knife to do, and it does it all perfectly. The grind it came with is just perfect. Every time I use it to carve or make feather sticks, I am just blown away by how easy it is. It feels just as good as any high-end scandi-ground Bushcraft knives I've used. The sheath- if I could choose again, I would go for the leather sheath. There is nothing wrong at all with the plastic sheath, on the contrary, it's very well made and the multi-mount system works well and the knife is always held very securely, I just would prefer something more classic-looking and something that is a bit quieter when you're taking the knife out of and putting it back into it's sheath. Overall, I can't recommend this knife enough. If you're just getting into Bushcraft or if you're an experienced bushcrafter or camper, I'm sure this knife will impress you as it has impressed me

This knife is as good as everyone says. Even the version with the plastic sheath has a very classy feel, yet you feel that as with their cheaper knives, Mora has put their money where it counts. The thicker blade and full tang mean it's noticeably heavier and chunkier than the cheaper Moras, and the tighter curve on the belly makes it harder to sharpen. If you are starting out in bushcraft I see no real reason to buy this knife over a Mora Companion or whatever they're called now. But if you have the money, this is a fantastic tool, and still excellent value. The use of a secondary bevel is interesting. The scandi grind is one of the things that makes a standard Mora so good, because it enables easy sharpening even for non-experts. The micro-bevel on the Garberg should make for a more durable edge that's quicker to sharpen, but it's harder to keep the correct angle. Removing the micro-bevel in one go would be straightforward, but a lot of work. Maybe it's possible to broaden the micro-bevel a bit at a time so that it eventually merges into the main bevel. I'm no sharpening expert.

This was bought to take on camping, bvush trips and was thoroughly researched prior to purchase. The knife arrived in a nice display box with 2 set ups for carrying, so vey functional. The full tang knife a first I believe for MORA is a nice feature with the exposed tang that could be used as a fire steel ? the blade itself ids very sturdy and holds a really good edge. A 2yr old Holly Shalaylee that I planned to wittle/shape with its really gnarly bark and ultra dry hard wood was no problem. The grip is comfortable & good even when wet.

Good weight and balance, a very sturdy piece of kit that should last for years. Unfortunately!!! For the price I would of expected a leather sheaf as well as the hard plastic one. I thought it would be sharp but no.. my cheap multi tool is lot sharper than this, now that was disappointing. This means I have to go out of my way to sharpen this up before it’s fit for purpose.. not sure how it managed to pass through quality control. All that said.. it is a quality knife with a quality build...

My Morakniv has had some rough treatment over the few months since I bought it, not once have I thought to myself 'hmm, I wonder if this will damage the knife'. It's pretty much indestructible. The handle is comfortable, sheath functional & the Scandi grind blade holds a nice edge. It isn't a particularly good looking knife but it does look like it means business and really backs that up & that's all you need in a tool. Use it & abuse it then give it a clean, run it over your favourite whetstone a few times, drop of oil then put it away until next time. Perfect.

No finesse with these! A knife to gut a Rhino, dig a hole or chop down a small tree. Really really good, heavy steel and takes a wicked edge but not made for preparing a salad. Seriously, this is the best work/outdoors knife I've ever owned.

I am a Bushcrafter and this is a great Bushcraft tool, and as all Mora knives quality at a great a price.

I have used this for basic outdoor garden tasks and also camp tasks and it feels sturdy, holds an edge well. Overall i like it a lot just wish it had a finger guard above the handle, however that is down to design and i knew this before buying obviously. (even though i haven't cut myself...yet)

Super ! tres fonctionnel Mais le modele normal est tres solide aussi !

جودة عالية وصلبة انصح بها، لك وللزمن

Un excellent couteau de bushcraft, on peu presque tout faire avec il est vraiment solide car la lame est très épaisse et traverse toute la poignée pour ressortir "au cul" du manche ce qui permet, quand on tape dessus, de transmettre directement l'énergie dans la lame sans être amortie par la matière de la poignée qui pourrait en plus être abimer sans ça, et le tranchant est vraiment efficace avec son émouture scandinave qui coupe extrêmement bien, en échange il coupera un peu moins longtemps qu'une émouture occidentale ou convexe, la lame en inox demande peu ou pas d'entretient. Par rapport aux autres MORA (qui sont beaucoup moins cher), en plus du fait d'avoir une lame de 3mm d'épaisseur qui traverse toute la poignée (ce qui est déjà un gros atout), j'apprécie particulièrement le manche qui est entièrement en plastique dur, il n'y a aucune partie en cahoutchouc anti-dérapant comme sur un 546, un PRO C, un 746 ou un COMPANION qui personellement peuvent parfois me faire des ampoules aux mains en cas d'utilisation prolongée sur du bois par exemple. Par contre l'etui MULTI-MOUNT je ne suis pas trop fan, j'aime mieux l'etui tout simple du COMPANION ou du PRO C qui peuvent se porter à l'envers pour plus de discrétion et aussi qui s'installe et s'enlève en un clin d'oeil sans devoir défaire sa ceinture, ce n'est pas le cas sur ce garberg car le passant de ceinture est souple et fermé. Sinon pour finir, je préfère la forme de la lame du COMPANION car elle est moins courbée et je trouve ça mieux, en plus c'est plus facile à affûter correctement étant donnée l'émouture scandinave (l'épaisseur de la lame de ce GARBERG le rend plus facile à affûter) Au final, je pense que c'est une alternative un peu moins onéreuse à des couteaux plus haut de gamme comme un FALLKNIVEN F1 (émouture convexe difficile à affûter, inox seulement) ou un ESEE 4 (émouture plate, acier carbone 1095 mais il existe une version inox 440C) ou encore un ENZO 95 (émouture plate ou scandinave, acier carbon ou inox).

Lo utilizo para mis salidas de camping para cortar ramas y batonear, es un cuchillo de espiga completa (la hoja es básicamente todo el cuchillo); es el cuchillo mas robusto que ha fabricado hasta la fecha la casa Morakniv, la marca de por si es una garantía, esta hecho en acero inoxidable sueco de alta calidad (14C28N) que se encuentra entre los aceros mas fuertes, sumado a que Morakniv aplica un proceso especial para hacerlo aun mas fuerte y duradero así que imaginate que tan resistente es, tiene una hoja con grosor aproximado 3 mm muy filosa, se siente y se ve muy robusto por lo que lo he utilizado sin miramientos por 9 meses y no tiene mas que algunos rasguños, el filo es de perfil Scandi-grind que hace que sea fácil de mantener afilado, ademas que la parte trasera de la hoja puede utilizarse con un ferrocerio para iniciar fuego. Elegí en especial este modelo de acero inoxidable sobre el de acero al carbono por que es menos propenso a oxidarse, y no necesitas tantos cuidados para su mantenimiento, aunque no quiere decir que no lo cuido, después de una salida de camping lo limpio y pongo un poco de aceite 3 en 1, en la hoja y lo esparzo con el dedo, para prevenir desgaste y oxido.

La Morakniv oramai è sinonimo di qualità e questo coltello supera le aspettative stesse della casa produttrice...ottimo acciaio-carbonio, ottima ergonomia e tanta consistenza! Il prodotto rispecchia al meglio tutto ciò che ci si può aspettare in termini di robustezza e capacità di taglio: perchè alla fin fine è questo il suo compito, tagliare. La lama infatti è affilatissima ed il dorso molto spigoloso, squadrato: dettaglio che agevola l’ uso di acciarini o praticare del carving al fine di produrre finissime esche in legno (attività bushcraft). Notevole il sistema di trasporto e aggancio allo zaino/cintura perfettamente modulabile a seconda delle necessità; il fodero in matriale polimerico risulta essere molto pratico e resistente oltre al fatto che lo si può lavare direttamente in acqua corrente grazie ai 2 fori posti alla base stessa del fodero che ne consentono il gocciolamento. Attaccando il coltello alla cintura non da fastidio, non risulta pesante...sensazione piacevolmente smentita invece durante l’impugnatura: si sente la qualità dei materiali, il grip è stabile e si ha la percezione di avere un oggetto affidabile tra le mani. Alla base dell’impugnatura è presente un frangivetro (non appuntito) che consente l’ impiego dell’ acciarino anche con lama non sguainata, ed un foro x un supplementare fissaggio con paracord. Mi sento di consigliarlo vivamente, anche in relazione dei video presenti su you tube che possono togliere qualsiasi ulteriore dubbio. Soddisfattissimo 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
