Got to say, I am more than a little concerned about the comment of loving minors. Not something that would be joked about really, so left wondering where that came from
So far mine has held up fine. But haven't put it through any hard use yet. Some carving and some food prepping. It has a somewhat flimsy plastic feel to it, not very confidence-inspiring. The quality of the nylon belt loop is a joke, and the knife still rattles in the sheath..but you have to actually try. Retention is ok. The sharpening sticks in the Pro kit could be compared to grinding your teeth on the curb..but if that's all you have, I guess it kind of works. Overall 7/10
@-Agis- great info! Thank you! I think if I got one, I'd get the basic one, and a BPS leather sheath to completely replace the plastic one. Glad it's working for you though!!! I uae my knives for food much more often than on trees when I'm camping
My son is 8. I bought him a Mora Companion (stainless, because we live in constant-rain-mud-and-swampland Louisiana, USA 🇺🇸 🐊). It does great! Unless you’re dirt poor, go ahead and go for the Mora.
Yeah, there's a balance between capability, lifespan, and cost. The tool brands Silverline and duratool are good examples for cheap and capable but low durability, only exception I've found is duratool's HSS drillbits which have been surprisingly good. Then you have cheap but durable stuff such as the lidl and Aldi tool brands Parkside and workzone, their power tools are bomb-proof, but I wouldn't trust their measuring tools or squares, because overall quality is rather low
Yup,, Mora,,,, great knives for the price and they do get put through hell. No matter where you life, or what you are doing. You need at least one of these in your pack, gear, daily setup.
Been watching you guys for years I'm a big fan guys. I just got my first mora two weeks ago.iv since then bout two more. My edc for the past two years has been the benchmade 200 puukko I love it. But IV put it away for the time being for the mora 510 would you guys do a review of the mora 510 thank you
Are you sure the carbon Mora has better edge retention than the stainless Mora? Because chromium carbides are quite hard and usually more wear resistant.
I think we definitely will someday! They look amazing but they're pretty expensive for the materials. you buy them as functional pieces of art. I have their axe hanging above my desk
Man, i want you to try Rinaldi's hunting knife. 19,5 cm, carbon steel, forged in italy, hand sharpened for 49,50. And i believe it's a convex. If their knife is as good as their axes, it's the one i want.
Garbage, I wouldn't buy it. Not when you literally get a world class knife from Mora for $10-20.....and another few dollars to have a sharpening stone nearby.
G'day guys, I was think'n bait knife, but maybe not, too much sharpening, not enough fish'n ; ) Again on the budget end, have you ever reviewed a Tramontina machete ? Cheers Duke.
I live in Sweden and very close to Clas Ohlson. Usually try to avoid buying things made in certain places but think I´m gonna do it anyway, just for fun :) And as always, thanks for an interesting video 😎
I‘m thinking of those poor chinese people that are sitting in these stupid factories, getting their life drenched out of them. I say fuck it, get a Mora. We have the money, they don‘t.
Sharpening with sandpaper is more common for those who use these in construction and carpentry, and you can get by with just a few euros using the 600, 800, 1000/1200 and 2000 grit papers and water. The DC4 is good for hikers but not worth it imo. There's better deals for diamond files already in the 300 to 600 grit range from hardware stores, that also work fast for a toothy edge that bites well into fibrous materials. The only downside is poor diamond distribution and quality control, but we're also talking about just your average workers with no regard for surface finish or even removing the burr (which can be done with the same stones given enough skill). Sorry for ranting about sharpening a 2,50€ knife
Hi guys , I’m new to this …..only 4 knives 2 recommended by you ( Casström Lars Fält , and mora robust ) I’d like to see a destruction test on my big chopper ! Condor Undertaker Bowie … you might need a metal tree !!!
Is it strange that, whenever analyzing toughness vs edge retention, I am asking myself, "Okay, but which one is good for meat... hitting bone regularly, running into a flak vest here and there...? I want edge retention because, after slicing through so many arterteries, my wrist can weaken a bit. But I don;t want to be without my little buttdy or have to keep digging my broken blades out of... whatever... for subsequent evidence burial. No one has that kind of time when you're being hunted by the mob with their pitchforks and torches."
I love you guys. I really enjoy watching videos in which you review knives I either own, or would like to own, by makers you have not yet reviewed. My suggestions are TFK (I have the Buddy and Beluga), RMJ, Reiff, White River, Bradford (I have the G6), Hinderer, and Winkler. All fixed blade, please. Thank you and I appreciate you!
A few years ago I got a knife for £5 in a closing down sale & honestly it’s a bit better than your knife there but I can’t tell you what brand is is because there’s nothing marked on it. Interesting video, thanks. To be honest I’d spend the little bit extra for a Mora or Hultafors because at least you know what you’re getting.
That is how they are used on construction sites here in Finland. They are used for cutting up bags of cement, cut through absolutely everything from wood to roofing felt, wall insulation and chalkboard..and pry open cans of paint. Sharpened on a brick if absolutely necessary, usually dead within a month. 😉
@@-Agis- That is totally true! At my workplace, there is a box full of new (cheap) puukkos, and another box where you throw your old when picking a new one. I use puukko allmost every day; cut rope and hoses, clean surfaces, pry flanges, use it as a wedge with a hammer and so on. I do sharpen my puukko everytime I walk by a beltsander, but it wont last long because how its used. Still, best tool for many tasks.
Amazing video dbk can you guys do de mora companion spark maybe it will preform not as good as the normal companion becouse of the fire steel in the hendel
That cheap knife would be great to turn into a friction folding knife since it has less tang Just gotta get special bits to drill a hole, or heat it up to soften it first
Wait, this might be a genuinely stupid question but the way I was taught stainless vs carbon steel is generally speaking (not always) stainless steels will typically hold an edge a bit better and not corrode as easily, where a carbon blade is typically softer so they won’t hold an edge as long but they’re better suited for hard use, that’s why a lot of larger knives and machetes etc will use steels like 1055,1075,1095 etc. Is that complete nonsense, or does one typically have certain inherent properties?
Well it certainly is not always nonsense! Stainless steel wants to break and carbon steel wants to bend. But in mora’s case the carbon steel holds a better edge as well. But nowadays stainless steels can be so crazy good (like elmax) dat it will outperform the majority of carbon steels. Cheers mate!!
@@DutchBushcraftKnives Fair enough. I know a lot of people talk about magnacut and cpm steels hitting the trifecta. I guess I was thinking more in a generic sense. Thanks for the response.
I live in Sweden, tomorrow i will go to Clas Ohlson and compare the three different no-name types they sell. €2.20, 2.50, and, 4.40.
keep me posted, bro
I gotta see a test on the mora hatchet!
That is a bit cheaper than I’m willing to go. 😂
honestly at that point I'd opt to get a second hand one from a flea market or something
Way better idea!
DC4 whohoooo! I prefer the CC4 though, but you use what works best for you!
I'm buying a fixed blade pocket knife for 79 Philippines pesso equal to like a 1 gbp
Remember to oil your knives folks!

Sweet vid but I'll pass on the knife. Cheers, you guys are great.
could you do a review of the Milwaukee duct knife?
NEXT TIME TEST THE STANLEY KNIVES AND THE BALZER KNIFE.
Could you test some "Helle" knives? Maybe the Gaupe (H3LS vs Sanvidk) or the Harding?

safety first if it brakes you cant give it to a child
Any plans on putting the Victorinox Venture to the test..now that the sheath-issue is mostly fixed..?
Yes please, I'm so suspicious of this knife could actually hold up, and definitely want then to test it
So far mine has held up fine. But haven't put it through any hard use yet. Some carving and some food prepping.

My son is 8. I bought him a Mora Companion (stainless, because we live in constant-rain-mud-and-swampland Louisiana, USA 🇺🇸 🐊). It does great!
Unless you’re dirt poor, go ahead and go for the Mora.
Hell yah brother!
I think there's a limit to the value-for-money argument. I mean, I have NO knife here, but it was free!

10:18 No... don't give a cheap, crappy knife to a kid. You could ruin the kid.
Exactly. Spend the extra couple bucks for a Mora.
Yup,, Mora,,,, great knives for the price and they do get put through hell. No matter where you life, or what you are doing. You need at least one of these in your pack, gear, daily setup.
could you guys review a knife from karesuando kniven with the RWL34 steel like the Galten Exclusive pls maybe??🍆
we might! but can't promise. Im expecting a few soon
Can you try te mora classic no 2

If it looks too good to be true it probably is. Could you boys try Swiss Tech Knives. I got an AUS 8 for $25 and it's holding up extremely well.
Please check out the SPK23 by Schmiedeglut and maybe some of the CRKT Minimalists :D would love that!
2.50 - even the spare blades for a Milwaukee Fastback are twice as much.
One way no sharpening required but thanks for all the rubbish.
7:28 ?????? You love miners? Baby😭👨🍼😂 this means “you are attracted to young people.”
This is a good knife if you don't want to use your "Good Knife," for a dirty job. Like whacking a steel drum. LOL
In the US, we can buy such a knife in the camping/fishing department at walmart. For 2 dollars.

To think you can buy 6-7 of them for a mora basic is freaking insane. It's really hard to believe they can make them that cheap.
You get what you pay for. Chinese crap
Horses for courses. You could beat that knife to death and not care at all
I like how almost every "best for the cheap price" knives tends to be Swedish XD
true! Maybe they dont like sharpening and need knives to throw away after use hahaha !
