Morakniv to Knife Community: "Hey, guys! We made a neat little set of full tang bushcrafty knives with recycled mystery steel, and old school wooden handles!" Knife Community: "Oh, that's nice. What do they run, like 50 bucks?" Morakniv (smiling sheepishly): "No, haha, mora like 300 dollars." Knife Community: ...wut? Are you joking?" Morakniv: "No, we are not joking." Knife Community: "Oh, ok. Well, we're going to have to call it shit, and make fun of you about it online for a while." Morakniv: "Fine." Knife Community: "Well, ok then." Morakniv: "Well, go ahead then." Knife Community: "Fine, we will." Morakniv (Walks away, putting their PM2 in their pocket tip down, eating their water sandwich.)

If I’m not mistaken, Mora’s “recycled stainless” is 12C27. I have an email around here somewhere confirming that. 12C is a fantastic budget steel when heat treated properly. But it is not, I repeat is not, made to be put on a $200 knife!!!

I appreciate your discussion at the end regarding Mora’s reasons for doing this. It’s sort of a prestige product for boosting their image in the world. Makes perfect sense, helps me wrap my head around it because I was really baffled by their decision-making on this series. I live in a mountain town where we get a good amount of tourists for hiking, and we have a couple of those outdoors shops that are way too expensive for the locals to shop in. Only the best and trendiest outdoor brands, and they charge MSRP for everything. This series of Moras seems tailor-made for those shops, where wealthy people on vacation might buy it and not be bothered by the price-while enjoying patting themselves on the back for being Sustainable. As for me, if I saw this knife and a Companion HD hanging next to each other and they were the same price, I’d still choose the Companion. 🤷‍♂️

Agreed. This is a ‘sustainable’ knife for Mora. They’ll sell some…for some people sustainable is a thing and price, frankly, is not. I doubt they need to sell many at all. As was noted in the video this is for Mora itself. A ‘we make this’ knife. I think we are just used to halo knives being premium instead of recycled. Eh, it’s fine.

Either of the two alternatives you mentioned would be a much better buy for a much more practical blade and I really can't see anyone disagreeing with the assessment you made .A great vid by you as always and a MASSIVE mistake price wise on the part of Mora ,lets hope they take notice .

Great video. While Im more a culinary knife nerd therefore not up to date on all knifey things, I did think Mora was more or less known for their "value for money" knifes being that they weren't the 'best' but for their affordable price were a great option for those with a budget looking for the most they could get for their money. Its seems this knife is a polar opposite of the Mora brand message.

No worries. For those of us who really use kinves...well, Mora make the 2000/Kansbol/Forest and the Bushcraft Black or Orange, Companion and Robust (Pro-series in general) for our every need.

​@@Butch_Deezlsteak ​ Yes Magnacut is not the toughest steel, it's not the goal of the steel.

And what even is the hardness of this recycled Mora knife ? What steel even is it ? According to knifesteelnerds AEB-L and CPM-3V behave similarly around 59-60 HRC... Can you imagine people use S35VN ESEE knives without breaking them ? They could make metal shredder blades from AEB-L or even better, in Mora's recycled steel ! But if I'd have to guess why they don't, it would be because of bad edge retention... I've even seen those made from D2... I do agree Sandvik steels are great !

There’s an American old-timey outdoor gear company called C. C. Filson. They’ve made overbuilt wool and waxed cotton duck clothing since the 1800s gold rush in America. It was authentically tough gear. In the last few years, they changed their catalog to show tough looking loggers and fishermen wearing their gear, rather than highlighting the construction, and increased the price quite a bit. They’re now marketing an image and a lifestyle, rather than a product. I think Mora may be dipping their toe into something like that. Tends to chase me away from a product.

I feel the same with Gransfors Bruks recycled metal they use for the axe heads. I finally treated myself to one roughly a year ago to only be extremely and utterly disappointed. The first few times I "LIGHTLY" used it essentially just playing around with it to get a feel for it - it sustained micro chips in a roughly 1 1/2 inch section. I tried to stay positive and assumed maybe it had some softer left over bits on the polished edge... Fixed it and used it one more time and it failed even worse with more severe edge damage; I used it harder this time being I actually tried to chop up some wood which it is made to do. I returned it... The axe that failed me personally is the Wildlife Hatchet; I opted for it for a light weight chopping option. In fact thinking about it... I'm still livid about it.

As far as I've read most knifesteels are made by recycling steel in electric arc furnaces. I think producing steel that way acutally increases the quality. So they are basicly just rebranding something that most companies are doing. Doesen't sound as good though. Maybe thats why most companies don't lable their steel like that.

I am on the Mora email list because I am a fan, in particular from the price/performance point of view. I have the 'Light my Fire' model, a Kansbol and a Garberg. The price of the Garberg made me hesitate, but I got one from Massdrop with the excellent leather sheath for a good price. I wanted to use it to replace my CS SRK and Buck Selkirk with a kind of compromise. I have been happy with it. But I was afflicted with sticker shock and disappointment with this new line from Mora. I assume that they, like others, are now catering to a less discerning but too affluent clientele. I don't care as long as the old Mora models, and Buck's for that matter continue to be available at reasonable prices. But who knows? Buyer be aware and educated.

I feel like Mora saw the popularity of the BPS knives... then decided to go against the reason why BPS knives are popular, the low price. Granted the BPS are just 1066 (or 5Cr14MoV for the odd stainless model), so... yeah, not great steels, but it's for people that want a bushcrafty, full tang, wood handle (bolted on just like this Mora) and leather sheath knife for cheapish ($30ish f USD?). I don't have any BPS myself, but maybe you should have a look at them Pete. I'd still take a Mora or cheap Cold Steel though. I agree with you take away at the end (as well as Brickys haha), I think Mora has delibrately priced it so that non knife people think it's higher quality and more "ethical", just because it's expensive.

Helle are hand made, hand finished laminated steel with gorgeous handles in a variety of natural materials. You must also remember that they are produced in a country where workers are paid a genuine living wage because in work poverty and inequality is quite rightly seen as a social disease to be eradicated. If you don't want to pay the extra for that buy a moulded plastic Mora.

Your comments about the tang protruding from the handle material is pretty standard on production bolt on knife scales. The knife is finished and then finished handles are bolted on to produce the final product. A custom maker would finish sand the entire knife to blend the handles and scales and then remove the scales to do final finishing on both the scales and the tank- producing that smooth transition that you seem to prefer. Mora stepped well outside their niche on this one- they are charging custom prices for a low end production knife. Best of luck to them, but as you said most of Mora's customer base will give this one a hard pass.

Great design etc definitely the kinds of knife I like but like everyone else has been saying the price is ridiculous not sure why Mora thought overpricing this knife by at least $150 was a good idea.

in ireland we make our hurleys from ash. it's a sporting bat that might look like an oddly-hooked oar to the uninitiated. anyways they're almost 3 feet long, carved by hand from one specific section of the ash tree, the shape is complex and subtle and the moisture content is carefully controlled. my point? an excellent one from a traditional maker costs the equivalent of 63.77 aussie dollars. so wherever the f*ck mora's getting their price from, it ain't in the handle neither.

12c27 should be really similiar to AEB-L. the carbides are very small, so the toughness is 1084 and ,80crv2 area. the edge retention is better than 1084, 1095 and 80crv2. its stainless. it was designed historically like AEB-L to be used in razor blades for gillete and other companies. the high toughness is beneficial for edge stability source: knife steel nerds 'all about AEB-L' its suppoused to be cheap

The recycled steel in that better be way better than what they use in the companion HD. Because when I got a companion HD with the new recycled stainless steel, I was quite confused at first. I'm still not sure if I got a knockoff, even though it came in original packaging. The grind is looking sharper, the microbevel is smaller but it doesn't cut very clean. The tip area doesn't even have a apex, I can see a reflection there. And the steel looks dull, refuses to be polished properly and has what looks like microscopic bubbles. At least the new production carbon steel version of the companion hd is still ok.

I know everyone has mentioned price but its disappointing for a couple of reasons. The main one is this could have been a hit. Moras are cheap and everyone owns boxes of them. If these would have been reasonably priced they would have sold like mad. I havent used a Mora in years and I would have bought five. Now they'll considerably less.
