User questions & answers

Question:	how sharp does the knife come??? Does the sheath keep the knife held in place??? Will the back of this blade work with my fire steel
Answer:	The knives come sharp and hold an edge. The sheath holds the knife snug and the knife snaps in. I use mine as a neck knife. I filed a flat edge on the back of the blade next to the handle for that purpose and it works well. I love these knives and own several. I have given a lot away and everyone has loved them.
Question:	Is this knife full tang
Answer:	This knife is Pootie Tang.
Question:	is this knife good for salt water
Answer:	No! This knife is made of carbon steel and will rust. There are other versions of this same knife such as this one (http://www.amazon.com/Mora-Companion-Stainless-Steel-Fixed/dp/B004ZAIXSC/ref=pd_sim_sg_8 ) in stainless that would be much better suited for use around salt water.
Question:	Why can't you ship to Ventura County, CA
Answer:	Despite what our opinionated Amazon friends from Texas might believe, California has some of the most permissive laws regarding knives in the entire country. However, local laws in LA County and Ventura County do not allow the possession of a knife greater than three inches. "Liberal" San Francisco doesn't have any of these restrictions, and it is 100% legal to open carry a samurai sword on Market Street. My recommendation is that you have the knife shipped to a friend in SF or the Central Valley. Hope this helps!

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this knife roughly the same or maybe even better than the Bushcraft knife
Answer:	I've used this knife on several animals now and it is my go to. We process our own cattle. On cows and young bulls , it can hold an edge throughout, for skinning, parting out and deboning. On an older bull I touch up the blade with either a fine diamond steel or the Fiskars axe sharpener as I go. Pigs are no problem at all. The point is great for making finger holes to pull the skin, IF you aren't keeping the hide. Easily spilts the hide from ankles down the leg. I also gut with it, running it between my two fingers, pulling up, so not to puncture the intestines. It does rust if you don't oil it after every use. I use a green brillo pad and soap to clean it off when I forget. Knife is strong, even if not a full tang. I baton hard wood, like mesquite, for kindling. I also ground the spine so I can strike sparks, works great. The sheath is exceptional IMHO. I have a Morakniv Kansbol, ALSO a very strong knife. I don't carry that one as much because I need two hands to pull it out of the sheath. Where as this Companion has a thumb break. Works great one handed. Rubber handle is also very grippy while bloody and wet. At this price, There is no reason not to own several of these knives. It rivals my $150-$200 knives. No brainer.
Question:	How is this knife for skinning game? Does it clean up fairly easily? I feel like blood could get stuck in the grooves in the handle
Answer:	I own a host of knives, have made knives, and consider myself in the top 85%-90% of sharpeners. This puppy won me over BEFORE I sharpened it - possibly the best edge I'd put on something. I hadn't worked with scandi grind before this, and now I'm a huge fan. Easy to sharpen because of the large flat edge, takes a true razor's edge, and holds just great. It has dulled with use, but held up very well and never got to the place it couldn't cut. Just strop often or touch it up on 1000/5k stones and hit strops. Beautiful - love it. I recommend the carbon all the way - better edge, fun to patina, rust hasn't been a problem (sheath breathes well, something you don't read about, but true!). I grab this knife because I got it for $13, and the camp knife I made would break my heart to lose or damage. (Also, I have to admit it - it's not as good a knife....even though you'd have to pay $150 for it. you sort of HAVE to get a Mora...)
Question:	Is there any difference in how easy these three knives are to sharpen or put an edge on ? Also is there any difference you have noticed in how well these knives hold an edge and how they performe carveing or wood working . The three knives I mean are the robust , the comapoin , and the compaion heavy duty .Thank You
Answer:	I myself have found the Mora Companion H.D. Is the one thats a prefect fit. Im 6ft 3" , 257 lbs An Have Large Hands ,, the Large Handle just feel more comfortable. Feels safer . I can get a firm grip on it , whether powering thru a Breast Bone or Pelvic Bone , my hands dont Slip .. The Knife cleans up really well after use .. An holds a Edge well , most times just 4-5 strokes on the wetstone is all it takes to bring the edge back , if stropping wont do it . An for the price you can beat it .. They could probably charge 2-3 times as much for this Knife... Now you aint going to be able to Baton 6" Dia logs with this Knife - it aint made for that . But as a all around knife nothing I've ever seen compares.
Question:	Which is a better bushcract or survival knife ? This or the robust

User questions & answers

Question:	My boyfriend carves pool balls as a hobby. Will this work for that type of material
Answer:	Right hand only. The sheath has a slot cut in it to insert the knife's finger guard. The Mora woodcarving knives without the finger guard should be ambidextrous in the sheath (models 106 and 120 for example). Also, check out the Morakniv Basic Wood Carving Knife with Sandvik Stainless Steel Blade, 3-Inch.
Question:	Replacement blades available
Answer:	If memory serves, 73 mm is the blade length and 164 mm was(?) the overall length (the ones we have are a bit longer at 174 mm OAL). :-)
Question:	Will the kit work to carve a pipe out of a briar block
Answer:	Morakniv does not specifically list grind angles for most of their knives, but just says 15-20 degrees in general. Educated guess is this one is 15 degrees (that is per side, so 30 degrees total). :-)
Question:	Is this set appropriate for a true beginner? What type of wood is best suited to these tools
Answer:	They may make it in stainless but this is all I carry.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does the blade ratain solidly in the sheath no matter which way its facing
Answer:	Yes, it comes with two styles of attaching the sheath. It has one for a belt loop and one that can be attached to a molle system.
Question:	Can the pictues knife sheath be attached to your belt like a regular sheath, like does it have a regular belt loop
Answer:	Greetings.... Yes, it locks either way it is inserted and holds very well. With the Multi Sheath it is the same.... use it left or right handed.... my only concern about the knife I purchased is it does not have the Morakniv logo oneither side of the blade. I have a couple friends that have the same knife and they all have the logo. I contacted Mora and they stated they do not sell any unmarked knives as that is part of the inspection process. This one is identical to the others, boxing, build, weight and maintains an edge etc.... Even without the logo I would recommend this knife. I use mine but do not abuse it. It will last a very long time....
Question:	Does the blade ratain solidly in the sheath no matter which way its facing? Basically asking if its able to do left hand carry with the platic sheath
Answer:	The spine’s back is smooth; however, the edges of the spine are sharp. It’s perfect for throwing sparks with a Fero Rod.
Question:	Pictures suggest it had a smooth spine I think amazon needs to check themselves cuz I know this knife has a sharp spine
Answer:	Both the Bushcraft Black and the Companion Heavy Duty have a 3.2mm thick carbon steel blade. The blade of the Black is slightly longer (4.3") than the HD (4.1") and it is also wider. The Black also has a DLC (Diamond Like Coating) to aid in the prevention of rust. The other apparent aesthetic differences are the handle grip and the sheath which will largely be a matter of personal preference.Performance-wise I would say they are very similar. They both seem to be good to great at most bushcrafting tasks though I would probably give a slight edge to the black for batoning with the slightly longer and wider blade. With either knife maybe limit the log diameter to 3-1/2" to 3-3/4" max. Both should hold an edge very well and sharpen fairly easily with the Scandi grind on both knives. Perhaps the most significant edge for the Black over the HD besides the coating (DLC) is the fact that it comes with the spine ground to a sharp 90 degrees allowing for sparking with a ferro rod. The HD can also made to spark as well with a minor modification of filing or grinding down the spine slightly.The biggest difference is the price. The Black will run you $50 - $55 on Amazon right now while the HD has been in the $17 - $19 range. You will have to decide whether the Black is worth nearly 2-1/2 to 3 times more than the HD.

User questions & answers

Question:	what is the tab on the front for
Answer:	It's a symmetrical handle and blade, so it will work for either hand. (Not that I'm sure it would matter if the blade was beveled to the opposite side anyway???)
Question:	My son is left-handed. Is this beveled on both sides
Answer:	Absolutely! The earlier version of this was my go-to carving knife for a long time, and I still use it occasionally. Understand that the “bowl” of the spoon is easier to carve with a hook knife (or similar, ie “scorp”, etc). It will do a great job of general shaping, and a passable job of carving the bowl.
Question:	Is this a good wood carving knife? Like could I carved spoons with it
Answer:	Difference 1) the blade is about .5 inches shorter2) the blade is a little thinner (.02 inches thinner)3) No rubber on the handle 4) the sheath looks a little bit different 5) about $5 cheaper Same1) blade steel 2) sharpness 3) ratail tang (not full tang but rather 3/4 of a full tang)4) both are great blades
Question:	What's the difference between this blade and the "morakniv companion fixed blade outdoor knife with carbon steel blade, military green, 4.1-inch
Answer:	I have not tried your specific application, but the knife quite firmly held. With the additional strap from the neck kit it would not come out, but the strap and band are leather so would likely not be appropriate for diving. I have tried to dislodge it from the sheath by indirect impact (holding it upside down in my hand and smacking my wrists together) but couldn't get it to even slip a little. It is a friction fit, but a firm one.

Morakniv Craftline Basic 511 High Carbon Steel Fixed Blade Utility Knife and Combi-Sheath

Basic 511 is the most used of our classic knives. Appreciated and loved by professionals and hobby craftsmen for generations, it’s a proper Mora knife. This knife is designed and intended for Scandinavian construction workers. Here, our priority is a sharp and durable edge with a good grip, which means that the look of the spine isn’t a high priority feature. You are more than welcome to use any of our knives for your intended needs, but keep in mind that the spine will be 'raw' (not grinded) on most craftsmen and construction knives. Therefore, it’s not compatible with a fire starter.

About Basic 511

The solid finger guard optimizes safety and the new, larger-shaped handle makes the knife sit even better in your hand. The blade is made of high quality carbon steel, manufactured in Mora according to our secret recipe. The carbon steel also makes the knife easier to re-sharpen so you can use it over and over again.

However, keep in mind that carbon steel can be affected by moisture and corrosive environments so make it a habit to wipe your knife and oil the blade after using it.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a true scandi grind or does it have a micro bevel
Answer:	The price can vary online.
Question:	Why is the 546 Stainless more expensive than the Pro S stainless
Answer:	I process 10-15 whitetail deer annually. I use Mora 511 carbon and Mora 546 stainless knives for gutting, skinning and quartering. My wife uses boning knives for the rest of the processing. Both of the Mora models are excellent for my part of the process. In comparing carbon and stainless I will say that contrary to common opinion, I find that the stainless Mora holds an edge for considerably longer than carbon. I attribute this to the fact that deer hides are often imbedded with abrasive dirt and the chrome content of stainless steel provides wear durability in abrasive conditions. And, the fine grained nature of the Mora stainless steel allows you to sharpen to almost as fine an edge as carbon (fine enough to easily shave hair). Either steel works great for this application, but my experience is that stainless holds the edge in abrasive conditions a bit longer.
Question:	Any one use this for processing deer? How does it perform
Answer:	The 546 is a stainless steel blade, while the 511 is a high carbon blade.
Question:	What is the difference between the 546 and the
Answer:	The tab on the sheath is used for attaching another knife (in it's sheath). In essence it allows you to piggyback two or more knives on top of each other.

Product description

The Morakniv Bushcraft Survival Black is an indispensable tool for a variety of outdoor, hunting, emergency, or tactical applications. High carbon steels are preferred in applications that demand durability and frequent regrinding and at the core is the Bushcraft Black knife with its razor-sharp, burly 1/8-inch (3.2 mm) thick carbon steel blade treated with a tungsten DLC anti-corrosive black coating. The scandi grind makes it a perfect Bushcraft knife as it prevents the knife from slipping off easily, bites into the surface without getting stuck, is sharp, and stays sharp longer. The 4.3-inch (109 mm) long blade is relatively thin making it easier to carve with.

The plastic sheath with belt loop will keep the Bushcraft Survival Black securely at your side and has a net weight of 8.1 oz. (229 g). The spine of the blade is ridge ground so that it can be used with the Morakniv fire starter that lasts approximately 7,000 strikes and produces a 3,000 degree spark, even when wet.

User questions & answers

Question:	if this knife is not liked when purchased what are the return details
Answer:	It’s a mora knife. You will like it.
Question:	Is the built in sharpening stone a good, usable piece of equipment
Answer:	If you want solid sharpening system that won't break the bank, buy a lansky blade medic from Amazon for under $10. It's pocket size and carbide and ceramic sharpening methods set to a 30 degree angle to keep your field knife in top shape (as well as a ceramic stone for honing and a flip out diamond file for serrated blades). I have three lansky blade medics and use them on all my Moraknives, Benchmades, Kershaws, and my Leathermans. The are awesome and a must to have. As far as rough field options for sharpening knives, there are several options available: smooth rocks in a creek bed, concrete driveway/road, cinder blocks, metal files, cardboard (when a leather Strop isn't available), roughly ceramic ring on bottom of coffee cups and plates/bowls, flat glass edge on top edge of vehicle window, and so many other methods that can be found on Google/YouTube. The rough diamond file on the sheath is meant to shape the blade when it is to dull to Strop in the field. Wear a real leather belt and use the backside of the belt to Strop the blade after using the rough diamond file on the sheath. Cardboard can be used in place of a leather belt/leather Strop to Strop the blade (stroping the blade removes the metal burs built up on the edge of the blade that cause the blade to be dull; it is common to see an old fashioned barber Strop a straight razor before he/she shaves your face).
Question:	Is upgraded sheath (fire/ sharpening stone) worth the money
Answer:	Sharpening stone is extremely rough, scratch's everything. All my sharpeners have been smooth. Great idea to have it attached to carrying case but feel very uncomfortabe using such a rough sharpener, especially with the marks it left in the black finish of the knife when I tried it out. Not a fan of the Plastic. Knife does come out easy enough. Knife it's self I like, disappointed in rest of it, especially stupid cheap clips that attach to it, finally got the one in ...now can't get it off. Comes with no instructions, which would be helpful since you can't put fire starter in either way...one way it falls out, teeth of fastener to fire starter ... Hope they don't give out, doesn't feel secure.
Question:	Is this a full tang knife
Answer:	If you want a full tang Morakniv you'll want to check out the relatively new (2016) Garberg here on Amazon. Comes with a leather sheath or multimount sheath system. Regardless, you'll be hard pressed to find a better rock solid value than any Mora, full tang or 3/4.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a good all around knife for fishing? I'm not using it for filleting, but as a bait knife or cutting line
Answer:	This is likely overkill for fishing unless you're doing it deep in the backcountry. Mora does make a cork-handled serrated knife that might be a better choice for cutting line and bait. Shorter more controllable blade and it floats.
Question:	Does the Garberg fit into the Kansbol sheath
Answer:	Yes. The garberg is almost too grip heavy but the sheath still does a decent job.
Question:	This knife blade is shorter than the mora 2000, is this knife legitimate? According to Amazion, both the Kansbol and 2000 have a 4.3 inch blade
Answer:	Just measured mine to 4.25From what I've read from fans of the Mora 2000 this is a slight upgrade of the same knife.
Question:	Full Tang
Answer:	No, it is a 3 quarter tang.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the blade flexible or fairly stiff? Need something nearly as flexible as an xacto blade. Any suggestions? Thanks
Answer:	I have had the knife for over two years and use it frequently. I have never had a need to sharpen it.
Question:	Which model is best for a beginner carver? The 2.4 inch or the 3 inch Morakniv
Answer:	This is not a forged blade. All their products are stamped, so the blade thickness is probably 3/32". That said, the width of the blade at the handle is slightly over 1 .25". The knife is my go-to slicer. It is wonderfully sharp and maintains its edge with only a few touch ups on a steel. I have 10 other Victorinox kitchen knives. To me, for the money, these knives are better than those at twice the cost! I have used German, Japanese, and other famous maker knives. Save your money and buy these!
Question:	Would this be any better for wood carving than the regular stainles steal morakniv
Answer:	I cut my own homemade gravlax with this knife all of the time, and it cuts perfectly.
Question:	Are all these knives 100% made in Sweden? Are any made in China
Answer:	The blade is 1 1/2 in. wide and 1/16 in. thick.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can the Morakniv companion knife be used to field dress deer
Answer:	They come in both. Carbon is stronger but stainless is more corrosion resistant. Both can rust if not cleaned and dried. People make the mistake that stainless means the knife won't rust, but it will if not cared for properly.
Question:	This is stainless steel blade correct? The chart on the companion blade says that heavy duty knife is carbon
Answer:	The Black Companion Heavy Duty is stainless blade and the MG Companion Heavy Duty is a carbon blade. Prices will fluctuate as well.
Question:	Why is this black version more expensive than the olive green
Answer:	Carbon is harder and holds a better edge but rust and discolors easily. Stainless will also rust but requires less maintenance to keep the rust off. I think stainless is easier to sharpen, but I could be wrong. If you use the knife in a rainy area or around the water a lot stainless is the way to go. If you are really into treating the knife like your baby and put in the time to take care of it carbon is arguably a better steel.
Question:	What is the difference between carbon and stainless
Answer:	This knife has a true "Scandi grind". An absokutely great knife. Ive used mine for a household utility/ general purpose knife. Very sharp. Good plastic sheath that is very easy to clip on to a pocket or waistband. This was my very first Moraknife and It was worth every penny. Ive bought multiple variations since the first and they"re all great.

Morakniv Companion Heavy Duty Knife with Stainless Steel Blade

This is the latest addition to our popular Companion range. The stainless steel blade has an effective black ED coating and has been treated for optimal function by us in Mora.

About Companion Black Blade

The ED coating is approximately 20μm thick, and when the knife is used the primary edge will be scraped off, giving the knife maximum sharpness. The patterned friction handle makes the knife safe to use and the black knife sheath has a practical belt clip for fastening the knife to a rucksack or belt. The spine of the knife has not been ground and therefore can’t be used with a fire starter. Check out one of our Bushcraft models instead for that functionality.

Question:	Should this knife be oiled? if yes, is extra virgin olive oil ok (to allow use with food)? will oiling this knife diminish its firestarting ability
Answer:	Yes, it can. The sheath provides multiple mounting and attachment options.
Question:	Can this knife be mountes horizontally
Answer:	I haven't tried it? But the knife is designed to go in for a left or right handed person...if that helps?
Question:	Can it be inserted in the molle sheath left or right handed
Answer:	I can't imagine paying nearly $100 for a Mora when the Morakniv Craftline HighQ Robust is $17. While not full tang the high carbon steel in the Robust is better and same thickness at 3.2mm. A full tang in a 4" knife doesn't add much in the way of strength.
Question:	Other than just being full tang and a little bigger is this knife any better than a Companion HD
Answer:	Yes, I have field dressed two with it. The bigger the knife the clumsier it is.

Morakniv

There’s a long tradition of knife making in Mora. We have been creating sharp knives for the rest of the world for more than 400 years. For Morakniv the journey started in 1891 when Frost-Erik Erson returned to his home village of Östnor in Mora after four years in North America. When he opened his timber sled factory the first seed was sewn to what would eventually become the company and the brand that we know today – Morakniv.

We have a wide variety of different knives. Models with longer or shorter blades, larger or smaller handles, made of different steel, and with different features. What all our knives have in common is that they have been designed to fulfill their intended purpose in the best possible way. In addition to our classic knives, we have models for building, for handicraft, for cooking, and for outdoor recreation.
