Howdy y’all! In today’s video, I look at the Mora Companion Heavy Duty fixed blade knife in carbon steel. If you’re looking for a capable knife that won’t break the bank, you won’t be disappointed with this one. It can handle the tasks you need done from an outdoors/bushcraft knife.
My ratings for the tasks I put it through in the video:
Batoning - 7.5
Featherstikcing - 7
Firesteel scraping - 6 (pre spine sharpening), 6.5 (post spine sharpening)

This sheath can be attached or removed from belt, pocket, shirt, button, lanyards, or backpacks very quickly and easily. This combined with the lightweight knife makes it easier to carry than many so called pocket knives. You could spend a lot of time and money looking for a more comfortable handle. Don’t know nothing about survival but this is my work carry choice hands down.
Agreed. This is a versatile knife with many applications…at a price you can’t beat!
Thanks for your comment, and thanks for watching!
Agreed. These knives have been available in Canada forever...hardware stores, kool-aid stands, ditches. But not south of the 48th. As a Canadian, and defacto is a bushcrafter - this is a great knife. Do I own others? Of course...but to start out...i can't be beat. Mors Kochanski, the GOD of bushcraft used them...'nuff said...Cheers from B.C. (Canada)
Always good to hear from someone who thinks alike when it comes to the knives we use.

I have one of these knives that is exactly like the one in the video. A few weeks ago I lost it and was grieving over it. It turned up (with a little rust) just the other day. I was absolutely thrilled! It cleaned up fine. One thing that I would add to this review is just how great the sheath is. I do a lot of butchering and, when I clean fish, I do a lot of that at one sitting. It is really nice to be able to put a dirty knife in the sheath without worrying about ruining either. When I'm all finished, I can wash off the knife and dry it, then I can run a bottle brush through the sheath. Not having to set the knife down is a big advantage for not losing it.
Glad you found it! I would have bought another one while I was still looking! And yes, the sheath is awesome. I should have gone a little more into it. I’ll definitely keep that in mind when I review other Moras.
Thanks for your comment and thanks for watching!
Have been using them for several years. I have a ProC I carry hunting and a Basic for every day carry. More than just a great price, it’s simply a great blade. The Companion is next on my list.
You won’t be disappointed with the Companion. I just posted a short on the Top Q Allround…another awesome Mora.

I have a variety, for edc. Kansbul green. Garden/ forage. Backup tied to machette. Laundry room, unbox area. A back swipe on folded carton box top removes glue and strops to a nice edge. Companions in trucks too!
Moras are awesome!
Thanks for your comment, and thanks for watching!
Definitely a good knife. Comes along fishing at all times.
Thank you for your comment, and thanks for watching!
It's interesting that quite a few special forces carry these knives for EOD / explosive ordnance & demolitions, because the handle does not conduct electricity. The best knife for the money after 25 years. Thanks for your video and all the best.
I didn’t know that, but it makes sense. Thanks for that info!
Thank you for your comment, and thanks for watching!
Great video…the Companion is a workhorse and well worth the investment
Couldn’t agree with you Mora …had to do it!😂 I need to add to my Mora collection. A Garberg is probably in the near future.
Thanks for your comment, thanks for watching and thanks for subscribing!
I like mora I have a few. But my new favorite is Hultafor OK4. I'm telling you if you get a chance get one. They are better in every way.
The only thing I can say is I need to sharpen mine a bit. But it holds it great and it has the sharp spine.
I’ve watched and read some reviews on that, and it looks like a decent knife. I’m going to put it on the list.
Thanks for the comment, and thanks for watching!
I've had a couple of these for a 3 or so of years now( orange and green) Patina'd mine too, one mustard one vinegar. It us an absolute workhorse if a knife, what it lacks in chopping weight it more than makes up for in cutting ability. I love mora's and I've got a bit of a collection now but I'm never far from one of my HD companion's. Love the video, subscribing 😊😊😊
Love my Companion HD. I also have the Pro S, and I’ll probably pull the trigger on a Garberg in the near future. Awesome knives for the money.
Thanks for watching, thanks for the comment and thanks especially for the subscribe!
Those are definitely the best knives for the money. You can always have a backup and putting the patina on is the best way to go
I was worried about screwing the patina up when I did it, but turned out to be fairly easy.

@@448videos you did a great job! I appreciate you subscribing as well! Look foreword to watching more of your videos!
I judt wish they came with better sheaths. I got mine for like $10 about 5 years ago. It's a great ķnife but I can't stand the sheaths they come with. They are functional and keep the knife secure. I prefer the leather sheaths but then you have the issue of slicing through it. The solution I came up with is a leather dangler sheath with a flexible plastic lining and a thong with heavy duty snap to keep the knife secure. A double thick welt all the way around to lessen the chance of the blade hitting the plastic. Also rivited to one side, an Esee medium survival pouch to hold accessories such as a ferro rod, a fatwood chunk, a small firstaid kit, DMT mini diamond stones, etc. Also, the welt is impregnated with 1.5 micron diamond spray to be used as a strop.
That sounds like a nice setup. I’ve been looking to get a basic kydex sheath for it. Cut down on its footprint somewhat.
Post a pic if you can…

A good knife for a very good price!
Agreed!
Thanks for your comment, and thanks for watching!
A good blade
100% agree!
Thank you for your comment, and thanks for watching!
I just soaked mine in vinegar for a few days and it turned black and wiped it with oil, then I bought a stainless steel one.
😂. I then bought a Mora Top Q Allround in stainless. Much easier!

Hi
Did you modified the spine to spark better?
Yes, I did. I used a sheet of sandpaper on a block for a minute or two. Don’t remember the grit off the top of my head, but it had a noticeable improvement.
Thanks for your comment, and thanks for watching!
Moraknivs are awesome
Yes sir, agreed. I just recently swapped this one into my vehicle go-bag. I think the Garberg is gonna be my birthday ask this year. So many great knives, at awesome prices, to choose from!
Which models do you have?
@@448videos I have two companions and a kansbol
Nice. Can’t go wrong with those.
@@448videos They have not let me down yet.I have no idea how they sell these knives for as little money as they do
I don’t know, and I’m not going to question it!
90° spine?
I had to do a little work to get it to 90ish. I have to retouch it every so often after scraping with it.
Thanks for your comment, and thanks for watching!
I really like Mora knives because they throw a GIANT monkey wrench into the notion that you need to invest hundreds/thousands of bucks into quality knives !?
Agreed! Mora should be in everyone’s knife collection.
Thanks for your comment, and thanks for watching!
Great video. However please don’t baton a non-full tang knife. It’s only common sense.
Thanks for your comment, and thanks for watching.
Light batoning yes heavy batoning NO .
I've been batoning with Mora's for decades, never broke one.
It handles it well.
