037 My Mora Collection

In this video, I show my Mora knife collection and chat about their qualities.
I've become quite a Morakniv fan over the last few years. They're not perfect, but i go through the ' pros and cons ' of each one.

You’ve got a problem, a glorious problem. I only own two moras and love them both. Bloody brilliant collection.

[@lloydgarland4667]

Gotta love that accent! Greetings from Bristol (UK). Can't beat a Mora for camping - as you said, ideal for carving and food prep.

[@rebdomine1]

I'm glad to hear the HD Companion in carbon rated so highly, as its the only one that I have. Think I'll give it a touch up.

[@CRJines]

I love mora knives. Nice collection

[@aidangonnelly]

really enjoyable video and educational, would love to see one on carving tools, something personally I'm struggling to acquire is a good set that will last the test of time! Thanks for the Videos Scott, really appreciated.

[@puma1304]

nice to listen to that very celtic accent... since I saw Mora's for the first time, I loved them! and as everyone, with time passing by I also formed some sort of collection... all in all if I had to choose just one, I would go for the Companion, since it has the best price-utility ratio. Said this I have to state that my favorite and main knife is the Bushcraft Black. And if I would have to concentrate on a set for some specific tasks I would say that a Companion/Bushcraft would do the woodworking, the carving would go to the 120, a Flex would do the food-prep, and the batoning and heavy tasks would go to the Robust/HD... Besides Mora I also own other swedish knives, like Hultafors, which offers great quality to amazing prices! My next target is however the Terävä Jääkkäripuukko inspired by the cutting edge issued to the Finnish Army... greetings from wild, wet, windy and wonderful Western Patagonia, Chile

[@sherwinpalacio3227]

I love Morakniv knives!

[@KuukkeliBushcraft]

Moras are awesome. I live in Finland, here there are Moras everywhere. I have quite a large collection of really old ones that I have acquired here and there. I use the Mora basic every day at work but tend to use more Puukkos in general. Awesome video mate, thanks for sharing.

[@alexandercarder2281]

I’ve got the Garberg Carbon, Kansbol, Eldris, companion and Hd version, wood carving basic and the 120. I live in Scotland

[@escapetherace1943]

that hultafor chisel knife just sitting there in the opening shot.... cool guy

[@22busy43]

Thanks for the tour of your Mora knives. Excellent point about going with a standard knife and upgrading the sheath.

[@gowersponger1]

Exelent vid mate I had a nice frost mora collections years ago, after owning all sorts of knives mora would still be my number one go to.

[@DaryooshF.Sh.P-vq6mu]

It’s decades I collect and use knives excessively but 98.3 percent of occasions I unintentionally take my carbon companion to get the job done. And I use to put all my moras around me and check them all once or twice a week.

[@RobEvansWoodsman]

Nice to see your beloved Mora's all together mate. I'm looking forward to the axes.

[@robertezell1916]

Love your content. You are the kind of down to earth guy I’d love to jump across the pond and come hang out with and get you to teach me some bushcraft skills. Then I’d get you to come to Mississippi, USA and we could do a bit of whitetail deer hunting! Like I say I really enjoy your content thus far. I would love to maybe send you a couple of USA made hatchets and bushcraft type boy’s axes to try. I too have a very good collection of axes and hatchets of all types. I have a True Temper Tomahawk and a True Temper Boy’s axe that my grandfather bought me over 50 years ago now! I used all throughout my Boy Scouts years and then for many ,many more. Now I have a new obsession in part thanks to you, MORA KNIVES! DAMN IT MAN! 😂😂😂(there are a lot worse things a 62 year old guy could spend his hard earned money on these days, but to be fair, my bushcraft knife addiction has been in full swing for about 4 years now. I do like the Mora knives and for the money, the hit way above their weight class! Now saws, I’m thinking of saving my money and just going straight to Sillky saws. )

[@biwwdabeah]

Thanks for the look at the Mora lineup. Looking forward to your axe collection.

[@hildolfrdraugadrottin7279]

I've been a knife collector/user since 6th grade and for years I blew off mora knives. I thought they looked more like kitchen knives than real working blades. A couple of years ago I decided to get one to use as a kitchen knife because of so many people saying good things about them. It took me awhile to warm up to it but eventually I started using it for things I didn't want to use my good knives for. After a few months of using it I truly understood how good they really are. I've got a half dozen of them now and use them for pretty everything except for things I need a bigger knife to do. You've got a nice collection of them. I just picked up one of their carving knives and really like it as well. I wish I would've tried them sooner.

[@welshwoodsman]

Pretty much exactly like me. I'll admit, I'm a knife snob. I'd only want expensive, custom knives. Spent an absolute fortune on them. I can honestly say, if I could do it all over again, I'd buy a mora and that would be enough.

[@getsmart3701]

Good video mate...I like your take on the Mora knives, I do love mine (and my Hultafors). Cheap and cheerful for me...my days of expensive knife consumption is over. I'm sub'ed. Thanks again.

[@omartreo4669]

Excelente video 👌 saludos!

[@mikew4760]

Excellent video to break up the boredom of 'lockdown' ! Definitely looking forward to the custom knife and axe video. Cheers

[@MB_OutdoorsMT]

Quite a nice collection. Live in Malta.

[@bluesideup007]

Nice presentation. I like to hear your opinions on various aspects. I LOVE the More spoon knives (if you can only have one get the 106). I often buy the blank 106 and fashion my own handle and leather sheath. One suggestion: could you hold the knives still as possible for as long as you're talking a about it? It's usually only in focus for a spit second, then I rewind and pause to see it closely. Thanks and cheers!

[@RevanJJ]

Mora Knives are the best and not just for the price but beef. HC or Stainless Steel. I mean the robust is indestructible as seen in a video with “this knife is indestructible” as the title. They tried hard too. I do wish there was a $50 or so priced5-6” blade with full range available. Either way, always happy to have two mora clipped together having from my side.

[@luismiguelfialhodesousa5112]

Great video 👍 thanks

[@perebird]

Lovely film Scott with some fine knives....👍👍🍻

[@royvinator1945]

I enjoyed the video! Thanks.

[@seanthomasdowd]

That's a lot of Moras, deffo going to buy the spark and pimp the sheath like you did on the 510

[@jelkel25]

I sort of got into things from a different point of view. The best fixed blades I could get hold of were Sheffield or American made hunting knives or military Kabars back in the day. I was a skint kid so most of these were battered second hand things. The idea you could buy good knives brand new for all sorts of uses when the Mora's came along and not spend loads of money was a total revelation. Still haven't spent more than £80 on a knife and I'm good with that.

[@ChrisSurrey]

Nice video Scott - that's a lot of Mora! Just picked up a classic No1 absolutely lovely in the hand. Looking forward to using it. Will keep an eye out for your next video and will check out Redkite too

[@DrAdrianTodd]

Thank you very much, Scott. Really appreciate the video.

[@unitytira4954]

Thank you so much for sharing your collection of Morakniv knife. They are all work expressions of art, I have the 3 knifes Eldris, Kansbol, and Garberg these are my collections through your reviews it affirmed to me these my 3 collections are good, appreciate your video 😊🇵🇭

[@MrJendatu]

Very nice collection, I love Morakniv. 👍

[@PossiblePouchPete]

Great video. Looking forward to more. 👍

[@keepthefaith35]

Lovely collection and the sheaths by Redkite Leatherworks were beautiful.

[@welshwoodsman]

Thank you. I should have mentioned that I'm in no way sponsored. I paid for everything. Redkite leatherworks make stunning sheaths.

[@jurgenkrebbekx4329]

Nice vid Scott, enjoyed it looking forward to the other ones mentioned👍🏻

[@darrengreaves3068]

One of many great vidios studying you spoon carving techniques and so far so good just want to ask you what feels best in your hand in-between the mora companion and the mora classic would love your opinion 👍

[@welshwoodsman]

The companion is my favourite. Fantastic value for money.

[@darrengreaves3068]

That will do me then buddy ill just stick with my mora companion thanks a million take care 👍

[@grahamwinter5536]

👍Great Collection Scott also a Mora fan. What do you think of the Pathfinder?

[@TheDavewatts]

I've been arguing back and forth on whether to get the Mora Garberg you may have made my mind up, I have loads of Mora's I've collected over the years, they're so easy to get a great edge on them. Did you keep the secondary bevel on your Garberg or take it to a zero scandi, I did this with my Mora robust and it transformed the knife.😁

[@welshwoodsman]

I sharpened it as soon as I bought it. It’s a great knife.

[@TheDavewatts]

@@welshwoodsman I will be ordering one very soon.😁👍

[@johnclark9678]

Nice collection. The only critique I can make is to advise that the orange/black knife right after the 510 is actually a Clipper, not a Companion. As is the green/black one right after that. Very nice leather sheaths towards the end, also.

[@welshwoodsman]

Thanks. I've had them for years, didn't even remember.

[@sosteve9113]

really nice collection that you have there

[@nm-ge4tb]

👍👍Great brilliant honest reviews of Mora knives that have been used👍👍👌✌🙏

[@DaveDoesOutdoors]

Nice 1 enjoyed the whole vid - defo axes and saws . Cooking stuff would be good I liked the old Swedish triange . Do more carving - basic spoon? Great stuff atb

[@DevilDog68]

Good video! I'd be interested in your custom knives.

[@papuchu]

i love my old mora companion MG carbon, recently i bought the HD version but haven't tried it yet, still using my old one and i hesitate to change cause never felt underknifed with the old one even though i have lot of other more expensive knives. Is it worth the upgrade to the heavy duty or will i lost some carving properties with the more thick blade of the HD? Any thoughts?

[@welshwoodsman]

For carving, you will lose some feel with the hd as its a thicker blade. However, they're cheap enough so give it a go.

[@papuchu]

@@welshwoodsman thanks for your reply, i wil giveit a try👍

[@BigMacOrange]

I like the mora 711

[@rivenmain2175]

at 12:46 you said you wanted the garberg in carbon, can you please tell me why? i want to know why some people prefer carbon

[@welshwoodsman]

I prefer the carbon version because it has a nicer ‘feel’. Carbon steel is easier to sharpen and take a beautiful edge. Each to their own, I suppose.

[@rivenmain2175]

@@welshwoodsman i bought Terava Jakaripuuko in 80CrV2 and mora 511 carbon because i thought they had good edge retention and toughness. then i learned in knife steel nerds website: 1.that 1084 and 80CrV2 have almost double the toughness of 1095 with same edge retention 2.that stainless steels had better edge retention 3.that some stainless steels have even better toughness than 1084 and 80CrV2. for example i bought Mora companion stainless because it said there that AEB-L, 14C28N, 12C27 and 13C26 all have better toughness AND edge retention than 1084 and 80Crv2. i kind of feel like i just assumed for so long that carbon had to be better because it sacrificed corrosion resistance but i was just wrong all this time. thats why i asked. i guess that it makes sense that carbon can feel nicer or be sharper or easily be stropped back. im trying to think of a reason to keep using my Terava in 80CrV2 after i get the Companion is 12C27/14C28N..... i guess i will only use Companion from now on if it has more toughness more edge retention and even stainless (which i wouldnt normally even look at)

[@alexandercarder2281]

And I’ve subbed

[@primeflux1]

Have you tried the Mora 2000?

[@welshwoodsman]

No I haven't. I wanted one of the new anniversary edition first run of numbered ones. Sadly mora wouldn't post to the UK so had to lose out. Good old brexit 😪

[@outdoorwoodchipps3107]

Moras are great. Even so I own a lot of more expensive knives they just work sooooooo good.

[@welshwoodsman]

I've also got a lot of expensive knives, but it's a mora i use must of the time.
