Knife

[Tuco69]

Ordered a Mora Garberg full tang today. Have a few bucks and a couple other brands but wanted a decent fixed blade that didn’t break the bank. Anyone own this brand? What do you “carry”?

Nice choice. I don't have one, but have handled them. Well made.

Mora is a great choice. I’ve got over a dozen of them. Bought my first few while working in Sweden, then started seeing them here. Great knife.

I’m a benchmade fan... lone wolf is a good less expensive brand.

Took a look at them JTW, look nice. Saw a drop point that caught my eye, maybe the wife won’t notice. Lucked out on the one I got. Initial discount for “signing” up and found additional discount code.

You can by 10 Mora’s for the price of 1 Benchmade. Don’t get me wrong Benchmade is a great knife but expensive.

No nonsense fixed blade: Suarez "grab & stab"

True... I don’t care as much about price as I do fit. Within reason of course... mora looks like a good inexpensive knife but I don’t care for the tang.

I make my own knives and kydex sheaths because I had a nasty habit of spending too much money on knives so I started making them to slow down my spending. It’s helped some.....

I carry a Chris Reeves small sebenza carbon fiber with insingo blade to work every day.

My advice would be to buy a Mora for a user. Impossible to beat the value. I love benchmade, spyderco, zero tolerance, Chris Reeves, etc. but when it comes to value - I don’t know of anything that’s a better bang for the buck than a Mora.

I sell my tool steel knives for $150 and stainless versions for $200+. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea for sure, but custom pieces that are one-of-a-kinda are hard to value.

Here are 3 I was etching last night. I’ll dip them in acid and then stonewash them before adding handles.

I do carry the fixed blades I make, but not to the office.

Those are sweet. I don't have the talent or patience to make such beautiful things.

That's what she said.

Have 6 Mora’s and really like them all.

Guess hijacking your own thread might not be good form but recommendation on good camp axe? Size between a full size an hatchet?

Fiskars x15 worked nicely for us on Overland Trip.

Got the Fiskars hatchet. Like it. Might be buying the larger size to keep on the SxS.
