First review of the Kansbol I’ve seen with the proper range of applications that knife is intended for. Very well done.
8:57 cutting towards your hand made me cringe a little.
This comment is spot on.
When cutting anything like food always curls those finger tips in and show the blade your knuckles (2nd joint) or you'll be picking up your finger tips
Gonna admit that fish cleaning was hard to watch. If you anchor that floating thumb in the gill, you'll have better control and less likely to fillet your thumb, had me worried there. 😳 nice review, another good vid.
living in the desert, im not much of a fisherman, so i was a bit rusty, but ill be more careful next time i head up to the lake.
@@JunkyardFox glad to hear it.lol. Have fun and stay safe.
@@haleskiss I cut the spine behind the head first to make sure they are dead/ don't feel anything and put my finger right on the spine to hold it. I also cut the head off by slicing behind fins and gills and pull out all the guts with the head..
Thank you for the historical perspective. In our time, we are inundated with knife choices. I really like the 2000 and like the Kansbol even mora!! I find mora's easy to sharpen and maintain in the field. Awesome fire pit. In the mountains of the southwest, we can not be too careful with fire.
I own many knives and the kansbol has become my favorite!
Great video, great knife. Just got my Kansbol today and sharpened it in my favourite shallow scandivex grind with my wet stones finishing with leather strop. It holds sharp edge better, and glide easier when it comes to feather sticking, de boning games, and dressing fishes. It also baton better because of less drag and friction.
I have a suggestion. Whenever batoning put your stick on a wood board or some trunk, lumber, or timber. It prevents unwanted hitting of blade to some stone.
nice! yeah i usually have a small flat log as a base for batoning but i couldnt find one during the filming of this video
Thank you! I think you're the only reviewer who pointed out that the sheath is also good for us left handed people.
Subscribed.
Finally, someone using this knife in the right way. Not trying to chop a tree down and beating it with a rock, then calling it crap. Good job, thanks for the review.
I have tested my Mora Kansbol with utmost delight. Razor sharp and tough enough for an apocalyptic sensation. Absolutely wonderful. My thanks to Mora.
I don't own one yet although I do own a lot of Mora's. I do have the Mora light my fire which is a smaller version of that blade with a ferro rod in the handle. Great for backpacking!
Great vid as always, just ordered my kansbol and hidden woodsmen haversack both based on your reviews. Please do all of your viewers a favor and keep up the great work because it is always guaranteed to be great content when i get a notification that you uploaded.
oh man, that is one aweseom setup, youre gonna love them! thanks for watching, be sure to check out our other awesome vids!
Hidden woodsman haversack Is that the video name?
How did I miss this for two weeks? Great video. I totally agree. Kansbol is an awesome knife.
hahaha hope you enjoyed the video, brother!
I was going to get a srk but I've decided on this knife, thank you for the true and honest review of this blade.
So glad to see U doing worthwhile vids. This is more the kind of vids I like to see.
thanks for watching, brother! weve got some great content coming soon.
My opinion only....any mora purchased is well worth the money spent. I am ashamed to say how many I own but it is all that I use. I have cleaned and processed dozens if whitetail dear with a companion. The forester bushcraft in green is also a very fine product from Morakniv. Very well made knives and easy to sharpen.
James,
The reviews are not bad, but if it's not too much to ask, would you be able to upload more videos of you doing different things in the wilderness like you used to do? I believe doing so would help the audience get a better feel of what the equipment can do while at the same time you demonstrate the level of skills needed for "X" task.
okay, i have some reviews that i gotta taek care of this coming month then when i catch up, i wanna get back to the basics. thanks for watching.
Never thought i finished your 15 minute review which i doubt in the first place. I almost never seen a review above 10 mnt or without fast forward. Doesnt seem to get enough of this video. Top review compare to others, simple english easier for non native english speaker to understand..very good and useful demo i can say i have a thorough knowledge of the knife to make up my mind and purchase the knife
im glad it was helpful!
I own a few Moras and I love them all, but I recently got a Kansbol and it is quickly becoming my favorite. It's one of my sharpest knives and it is by far the most versatile, I can't believe all the things it can do. It is the most well balanced knife I own so far and it is such a joy to use it. Only thing that keeps it from being perfect is the fake leather belt loop... I really dislike fake leather, but I'll give a chance and see how it holds up. That being said, the Kansbol deserves A LOT more recognition and it is one of the best knives I have used in my life so far. For the price? You can't get any better.
My go-to knife is my Mora Bushcraft Black. I've used it for everything from splitting wood to butchering chickens, and the only problem I've had is forgetting to oil it. It's carbon steel instead of stainless, so it rusts quickly.
the mora balck is an absolutely superb knife. we reviewed it here too, of course, it passed with flying colors.
Just to update, I’ve had my Kansbol for a over a month now and absolutely adore it. My knife collection consists of Companion and HD companion. Garberg Carbon and the Kansbol and the Eldris and I purchased for £11 the Mora wood carving basic which is the sharpest blade I’ve ever brushed my thumb against 😬 lol. The only knife I have that isn’t a Mora is the USA 🇺🇸 made Gerber Strong Arm 💪 which is the best ball aces blade I’ve ever held in my hand and such a beast. I really love your channel and always puts a smile on my face when I get notification of new vids.
glad its proven to be a worthy addition!
@@JunkyardFox I was shocked at how light it was at first.
I've actually come to love this knife. It works great for a multitude of tasks!
Garberg definitely!! Still making awesome videos!! Keep up the good work
When I first saw the kansbol, I really was skeptical. I am now thoughtful. Thanks.
at first it looks kida boring, the typical mora, but after using it, its become my favorite. this thing is a scalpel.
Ok, that is the best knife review possible. That is what 98% of the people will be using this type of knife for in 90% of the cases. Including me. Ordering my kansbol now. Thank you.
to this day, this is my favorite knife, you cant beat it!
@@JunkyardFox wow, thank you for coming back with this info! I am so happy to read that, especially four years after you actually made this review.
The price of the Kansbol (updated Mora 2000) is one of the best parts of this knife.
$32 USD with plastic sheath / $46 with molle multi-mount system.
kansbol is good, but I like the morakniv forest better, same blade, but my opinion is the handle is a better design. you mentioned in a previous video ragweed forge, ask Jim if he still has the forest, as this is whom I purchase all my mora knives from, great guy an fantastic service at great prices.
Awesome video as usual. You have a very defined and unique style which to me stands out more so than most. Keep up the awesome work, man!
i appreciate the kind words, my friend! gald you enjoy our work!
Cool Video 👍
Thank U for the Info and the Links 👍
Also thank U for showing how to prepare a trout👍
Say Heah James. Even though I have a Mora 2000, and it would match well with my Fox Parang Bushcraft Jungle Knife. I still just use it in my Lite Mora Trio with my Mora Hatchet and Bacho Laplander. I initially got the 3V Master Hunter to team with it. But it matched alot better with my Fox Jungle Parabg which is a little similar with some suttle differences and color. Anyhow, I did ordered my Mora Kansbil which is comming later today. I ordered the O.D. Green Kansbol and the Green Eldris for at least a nice color match with my first Fox Bushcraft Parabg which also cones in an O.D. Green and attachments. Yeah, I always like the oerfirnance of my Nora 2000 which has the same blade as the Kabsbol, For me, I now have two very good combos. I also ordered the Mora Garberg which I plan to team it with my Bokor Aparro. That makes three nice sets.,,.p
Just bought one a couple weeks ago because of their track record and this review. As you can imagine I was not disappointed. Great review and thanks!
i have been watching your videos lately and i must say your one of the better youtubers on youtube im so happy i stubmled upon your channel keep up the great work👍
thanks for watching, be sure to check out our other awesome vids.
Thanks Junkyard fox. Great as always! I still have the Mora Bushcraft force which is now discontinued but very similar specs to the Kansbol. 2.5mm width seems to be the sweet spot for lateral strength, splitting kindling, whittling etc. but still enjoyable to use for food prep. I also love how the 12c27 holds its edge when stored for long periods wheras carbon steel tends to dull when i store it due to micro rusting of the edge. Yes in a perfect world id wipe and oil it always, but sometimes it just slips my mind. The 12c27 blade always stays nice and shiny. :-)The Kansbol looks like a great knife i would buy it in an instant but I cant yet part with my trusty Mora Force! The Garberg looks like a beast but my prediction is that the Kansbol will outperform it in whittling and food prep but probably falling short when splitting wood. All one has to ask is what are you most likely to use your outdoor blade for? I prefer the lightweight versatility of the Kansbol.
i completely agree, i own both the garberg and kansbol. i prefer the kansbol, i prefer its thin blade, since i dot a lot of game processing. outside of knife reviews, i never have to baton.
My favourite Mora is the 2000 and a Kansbol is all the things that needed improving on the 2000. If I ever bought another Mora it would be a Kansbol. Got tired of the plastic sheaths, they seem to misshape and not hold the knives at awkward times, will be interested to see if the multi mounts keep their shape past 2 years.
Thanks for the vid it was awesome! I can't wait to clean a trout now. As for the knife I pick it really doesn't matter because I've seen so many reviews on them both. Both great knives.
Great vid....Mora have come a long way I remember there best knife use to be the clipper (back in the day)..
i have been thinking of getting this knife for a while, thanks for the review it helped make me feel a lot better with the decision to buy it.
Unusual that I'm watching this video while I'm filming myself cooking 🍳 scalloped potatoes 🥔 earlier. Now I wish I had a nice fat German Trout.
My vote is for the LT!! Keep it up man!!
Hi James. I hope to see both knives reviewed so get to it. small relevance, there's lots of garberg review's , but I like your review's. . LTW then mora. thanks again for everything you do.
thanks for watching , i appreciate the input!
I’m waiting for mine to arrive through the post. I’ve got the companion and the faskars X7 hatchet 🪓 as well as all the bugging out gear I’ve been amassing since lockdown. Got get ready.
Great review of a fantastic knife. I love the Kansbol but actually think the Mora 2000 is better. I prefer the rounded spine because it is more useful when doing a lot of cutting and doesn’t tear up my thumb like knives with sharp spines. The Kansbol handle is better than most knives but not as good as the 2000 which I find provides better grip. The 2000 is the best knife imo and the Kansbol is up there too. Have tried a lot of knives that cost ten times as much with super steels but find those specs mostly meaningless. 12c27 treated by Mora is a fantastic steel. As an actual tool the Kansbol/2000 are almost impossible to beat.
Please compare the Garberg and the Kansbol as to which do you consider is a better value!
Or even the bushcraft forest
Good video Junk yard fox....I enjoy ur videos..👍....
Mora also makes the bush craft forest it’s handle is just like the bush craft black but the blade is stainless steel and modeled like the Cannes ball I think you’ll really like it
Say Heah Jimmy, Yeah, I recently permanently added my Mora Kansbol to my Fox Parang Bushcraft Jungle Knife Sheath, It's a Outstanding Combo vertical Piggyback. I sill use my Mora Eldris as my Neck Knife. I love this Combo.,,. p
Light My Fire,Kansbol , , garberg , and Eldris same steel .. I take LMF mora over all
Awesome video as always man, love the wood and food processing, I'd love to see how the garberg compares to the kansbol
it seems like the garberg is our next review. already planning some cool testing ideas.
Junkyard Fox awesome! Looking forward to it!
Great vid! Much better than the usual table top crap that dominates TH-cam. Keep em coming. +1 for the garberg.
thanks so much for watching! we try very hard to make adventurous, in-depth gear reviews. be sure to check out our knife reviews playlist!
Another great vid James.This knife is on my to get list...
Another great video james, keep them coming our way!
Great video James. I like your "camp knife" approach to these reviews. My vote is to review the Garberg next, so we can get your opinion of how the Moras perform relative to each other. Would be very interested to hear if you think the Garberg is worth the extra money. Then do the LT.
thansk for your input. already planning an awesome garberg vid.
JX3!!! you should get your hands on an LTWK Lagom bush knife. looks like an awesome knife and would be the perfect knife for you.
that thing does look like a great knife.
Nice one, James. I've been eyeing this Mora for a while now but have just too many knives right now. Keep up the great work, brother!
thanks jude! dude this knife is a scalpel! i mean, this is the perfect budget knife.
I love your real world tests. Fantastic.
Glad you like them! be sure to check out our knife review playlist th-cam.com/play/PL_jSMueMy8etsY1HbaCMRCNENsVdYpic3.html
I'm glad that I got to watch your Kansbol review since I'm getting one for Christmas. Great review! I also just watched the Garberg review and it was great also. Glad that I found your FB page and youtube.
addicted to your content bro
Hello James! Always a great video & it always makes me hungry! Thanks!! My vote for the next knife review is the JX3 . Also let us know when more Bandannas are available. Thanks Brother !
im thinking of the next batch of bandanas will be around august, probably in dark blue.
Thanks James !!
The next knife vid i say the boot knife, well james the reason i pick the boot knife is i like how you have done your other vids on say if your in a situation and thats the only knife "the boot knife" thats you have etc...
excellent input! thanks for the advice.
This may sound idk alil crazy?? not too crazy! lol, but it can be risky but how bout a vid in the future catching a snake and skinning it and cooking it? over a fire? or say catching and cooking a peasant? just some ideas for some future vids james,,and a ? are you a fan of the tv show swamp people? i so love that show! i can watch that everyday! if it was on tv everyday! hehehehe
Great video/review. I will now be looking at this knife for my kit.
Maybe Steven should get the new knife 😉
i gave it back :( but i got my new kansbol today, love this thing!
your channel is taking off! like 9k subs in a month.
udude for reals, thsi channel is skyrocketing!
I vote for a Garberg video.
It would be interesting to see you compare this Mora Kansbol to the Mora Light My Fire. I own one along with the Mora Companipn HD. As for your next review....I'd like to see the Mora Garberg.
Charles Larson I have all 3 of those knives. Moras are great & the Kansbol is one of the best. I have both the carbon & stainless Companion HD, & once again I have to use that word that best describes Morakniv, great.
Awesome video as always!!
my vote is for the JX3
james, mora made the 2000 n forest with same blade, I find the handle on the forest to be the most comfortable for extended use, the sheathed are all interchangeable, u ought to acquire both the the 2000 n the forest n compare them instead of trying to compare it to the garberg as the blade design n handle r totally different n this does not equate to n unbiased comparison.
Nice knife. Another one for my wish list. Thank you for the video
Hello James, thanks for another cool video, looking forward to the next! I vote for Garberg.
Love the knife review vids keep them up .. Also the bushcraft and field tests. Thanks
Excellent video James. Still loving the tunes. I think I will upgrade my basic Mora for this one. Great fishing knife.
although all moras a re great, this blade is a scalpel! and its super affordable too! amzn.to/2stxk69
My vote goes for the Garberg
GREAT vid !!
Nice video and review! Good knife seems to perform all tests great.
thanks for watching, be sure to check out our other awesome vids.
Brilliant how you show actual use and teach other bushcraft skills while you do it. Your reviews are top notch on a low budget. That's talent. CN on iTunes yet?
thanks so much! not on itunes yet, only bandcamp, ill be sure to tell him though.
A++ NICE VIDEO! TEAM MORA ALL THE WAY!!!😎
Always enjoy your videos. Very Informative and to the point.
Very cool review! Love the practical application.
I collect knives for various purposes/ uses. This blade , I find, is a good knife, except that it needs to be , at least, two inches longer, my opinion.
to be honest, sometimes i find a knife too long for me, they get a bit cumbersome. i like a smaller, lighter, more focused blade. but if youre looking for a longer mora knife, check out the mora pathfinder knife.
I do like a good small knife. Some times my Kukri is a little too much. Don't get me wrong I love my kukri knife it's like having an axe a large knife and a hammer all in one!
i personally would pair your kukri or axe with a lightweight blade that can handle the finer tasks like fish processing or whittling.
Thanks my kukri came with a small knife but it's not suitable for the tasks that you mentioned. My knife is on the large side. It's good for cutting down small trees. Now the knife you have is a good knife to have! I had been using a kabar but it's mysteriously vanished.
Spent my lunch hour relaxing at the office and enjoying this great video and review...for just a bit of time...I was not in Kansas any more. Review JTX
glad you enjoyed it!
@@JunkyardFox Would you prefer the Kansbol over the Garberg?
Bob McGarry yes. The garberg is great, but for my lifestyle, the Kansbol is better, I do less woodcraft, hard use, and more kitchen prep, fish fileting, game processing, the Kansbol is the better choice.
Great video. Would realy like to see you review the JX3. Greeting from Belgium!
greetings my friend, thanks for watching
nice tool, and the food was surely delicious (I grew up fishing and preparing trout) hmmm I can smell that barbecue
You do a great job with your reviews. I appreciate how you always show the equipment doing different tasks that are expected. So practical and well thought out. Anyone who watches a review that is less than 6 months worth of testing and is not in the field is worthless. Plus, I learn alot from your technique. Thanks man!
Speaking of technique, I wonder if the stainless blade sparks so well because you are good with the ferro rod, or the knife really can throw a spark well...Just a question.
Finally, reive that L.T. Wright...always like their knives, but can't afford it. Is it worth it?
Great work James!
thanks so much for the kind words! its actaully the spine on the knife is so sharp that it spits sparks like crazy. the type of steel doesnt matter, as long as its jageed to scratch the rod, you can even strike a ferro rod with a broken piece of glass or rock.
Thank you for sharing . I learn a lot from your content .your a great man
Dang - every time you do a review of a Mora knife I end up buying it! Have to say they're great knives
moras are superb blades lol this one is damn perfect!
Ok I just ordered it using the link - hopefully you'll get a little something from it too. Have you ever tried the Opinel knives?
I wonder what in the desert is most like a potato? Really trying to learn more about wild desert edibles
Very very good video..... Keep up the good work
Thanks James!
The sheath really needs a thumb ramp so you can take the knife out easier.
What is the advantage of the kansbol over the companion? Which would be better for a complete novice?
keep up the great work! can't wait to see the next knife review!
Your becoming one of my favorite youtubers especially living in AZ you're vids are a great help
i appreciate that very much, my friend!
@@JunkyardFox I miss AZ
😭
dude, i just bought one thanks, man!
dude i just got mine today! this thing is a scalpel!
Yay 20k love your videos you inspired me to be a TH-camr keep it going
thanks for watching, im glad i can help, little brother! thanks for watching, be sure to check out our other awesome vids.
Junkyard Fox no problem
👍🏼almost to 20k keep up the great work, great job as always
Hola compañero, enhorabuena por el vídeo. Me gusta mucho este cuchillo Mora, pero me gustaría saber cómo se afilado una hoja que tiene dos tipos de vaciado? Es muy complicado? Se puede utilizar una piedra al agua? Un saludo!
Young man, I really enjoyed the words that you used, such as processed as far as food preparation and the uses of this knife. Thank you for your presentation. Remember this, did you make a enough food for every one?;) LOL!
The bushcraft forest is the same blade with a different handle and sheath
A very nice review of the Mora knife...also some good skills...a Happy New Year to you...
glad you enjoyed it, thank you for watching!
thnx for the review now I can buy it instead of a 60$ knife for camping
oh yeah this thign is quality and affordable, a damn scalpel, amzn.to/2stxk69
I use the kansbul as a companion to my carbon garberg
Ah dude your making me really hungry at 5am lol. Fantastic video and I’ve learnt some serious stuff from this. I’m gonna sub you bro.
do the Garberg next
