I have knives that I spent $20.00 Australian on, and knives I’ve spent $700.00 on, in both instances I’ve been happy with the purchase and extremely unhappy, I always research before buying. I’m by no means wealthy, so disappointment in an expensive knife hurts more than an inexpensive one. All that being said a good functional knife is still good at any price. I’m a knife guy, not a fanboy. We can find fault in anything if we look hard enough.
the one thing worse than mora fan boys, is the benchmade fan boys... they are 100% really great knives but they are so over priced these days that it really detracts from the appeal...
They are great knives. So are mora.
You’ve clearly never dealt with Esee , Tops , or Becker fanboys then .
@gladeshunter8796 nah those brands aren't so common where I live, a few esee fans floating around but they're cheaper than benchmade and don't get as much hype...
hello? how can we talk here without mentioning the legendary cold steel fanboys? most of them don't even know that gsm is now in charge
@@gladeshunter8796 Micotech c0ck suckers are the worst offenders.
With all respect, before reviewing a knife, go out and test it for at least 6 months, then review it. Greetings from Sweden!
It’s an initial impression video
@@peterbiltknifeguyIn other words a totally worthless review!
The sheath sux i agree, but do you ever go outside? I use my garberg constantly when im in the outdoors. Be it cooking, carving or skinning.
I definitely do. I own 40 acres in a unincorporated area I’m the mountains that’s been in my family since the 1870’s. I’ve also owned and used more knives than 99% of people and base my opinion on this.
Us bushcrafters catching strays out here. I've been a hunter and woodsman for decades and I absolutely use my knife in wood 90% of the time. Just because you don't understand it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. 🤣
I own the Garberg, Kansbol and Companion HD. For the money the Companion HD will perform as well as the Garberg. The Garberg will take some serious abuse though. I haven't been nice to mine at all after 4 years or so and its always held up. Definitely a reliable tank of a knife with decent edge retention and easy maintenance.
If you could only take to depend your life on you know you're taking the garberg
This was my first Mora knife when they first came out. It didn't seem so expensive because I didn't start off with a less expensive model and then upgrade. I wanted to see what all the hype was about. It's a decent knife but I still haven't really given it a good try and I'm not buying any more of these. I had a secondary bevel on one side only and other people complain about it.
A Garberg is more of a thinking man's knife. More for people who utilize finesse and technique over brute force and collateral damage.
Explain
@@peterbiltknifeguyto start the Garberg should be compared to the Leuko and the Puuko to the Companion HD. Then you can at least have similar models.
@@GertTown well not really. Because the companion doesn’t have a full tang.
@peterbiltknifeguy that is the most insignificant difference you could point out. I would rather at least compare knives of a similar size blade. Besides those moras hold up just like they are people even baton with them even though it's a stupid thing to do.
@@GertTown are you kidding me? That’s the most significant thing about the garberg. It’s selling point is being full tang
So personally I like functional tools ,Milwaukee knives are a functional tool mora is a functional tool Buck is a functional tool,so at the end of the day,if you don’t get in to deep with cost,than if you lose it or break it,without sweat,they say people with brands have no brains 🧠
I have the stainless and carbon Garbergs and they came stupid sharp, I’d take either one over that Benchmade.
👍 I bet
I agree!!
@@cocovasquez1 music. Just stick to music 👍
@@peterbiltknifeguyDon’t quit your day job lol
@@cocovasquez1 don’t worry music man. I’m successful in both categories
If one was looking to buy a camp knife for the first time, and were not sure if camping is something that you would continue, a Mora is a good choice.
But for me, as an instructor it's a knife from either ESEE or Survive! Knives.
Nice conte t! I agree with your take on the garberg. Have you tried the Hultafors OK4 or the Terava Jaakaripuukko? I have all three knives and for my personal use and use I prefer both to the garberg.
Thank you. No. I haven’t tried those yet
Good video. You made some great points. I hope you're having a great New Year.
Thanks, you too!
I got my Morakniv Garberg (14C28N version) several years ago and even then, it was expensive for me. Although I like it, I wouldn't buy it again. I think your thoughts are spot on, btw. 👍Thanks for sharing, take care and Cheers!
It was a tough choice between carbon or stainless for me. Was it for you?
@@peterbiltknifeguy Yeah, I could've easily had gotten the carbon version just the same.
@@peterbiltknifeguy Stainless for me. These steels have similar properties like holding edge and easiness of sharpness. Biggest difference one is stainless, another not. Ok, carbon version cuts more aggresively.
PS. Perfect version for me would be 14C28N with black coating.
👍
I happen to be watching this waiting on a ss garberg. My edc has been the 200 pukko for the past two years love it.
I love me a Moragarberg, but I'm just curious as to why you would get that version as opposed to the normal stainless one. That was the first bushcraft knife I bought and for the price it's fantastic it's a beast and was razor sharp. But I'm not going to say it's every bit as good as some of the higher end options. But for the price they are great for what they do.
I have been using a bushcraft black for about 7 years or so I love the garberg looks but I just think I would be buying the same blade as the black just full tang. I think I’ll just keep the black. I would like that benchmade pukko I think you showed
Love your channel i have the garberg don't use it much. Now to upset you it's my pleasure watch the film were they take the big silver birch tree down with the garberg if you tried that with the 110 your new Love the benchmade or the f1 you would just have metal left one is a survival knife the other 3 are not
I've got 3 moras and like them all, I also have a rat7 knife that I've had for 7 years going strong. I appreciate your input on that particular knife.
I mostly agree. Mora are good for cheap stuff. They now have this ash handled range that goes over 150€. I've looked at them when in Mora last summer, but nothing justifies the price. I got a Kansbol (50€ range) for camping, food prep, even did some batoning to get smaller wood blocks to start the fire. It works fine, but it needed resharpening quite often during our 3 week trip. If it was mandatory to spend 150+ €, I would certainly prefer the benchmade over any Mora.
I think the Kansbol is the best Mora . The Garberg is overpriced for what it is . I love my Mora’s for woodcraft but that’s about all they’re good for . My Esee’s and Benchmade’s put in the work for game prep and most other tasks .
I never understood the garberg, I mean for 2/3 of the price you can have a terävä jääkäripuukko 140 which is better in any ways, better steel, better sheath…
I love my morakniv hd companion around my woodstove but a mora for 80+ bucks come on …
I would definitely buy the Benchmade over the mora even if it was four times the price…
Oh by the way I would love see your review of a terava skrama …
Regards from France
I look forward to purchasing one. I’m interested
I too love the terava jaakaripuukko 140. Robust, cost effective and extremely capable. Another vote for the Skrama 240. She is ugly but would be a top contender for a multi-scenario woodscraft/survival situation. And the multi-position handle just adds so much versatility. One of my top two budget big blades next to the kershaw camp 10!
Not to forget the Hultafors knives. I have a Hultafors OK1, too. It's really a good, cheap and safe knife, the handle is great. Even with wet and cold hands in wintertime i was able to do everything with it. It's carbon steel, but with a coating and i had never ever had any issues with rust. If i should choose "the" one blade, i think i would take the OK1. Or maybe one of my Eickhorns, but they are much more expensive.
The Mora Garberg is a great knife, I like and use my carbon one all the time while outdoors. It doesnt beat a Tops: B.O.B but still enjoyable.
I like my Mora Garberg carbon but it's no Benchmade.
Mora is a great brand, I personally don't own any of their products, but a product that is produced with quality in a country where people have a high standard of living at that price is great!! Personally, I would choose the victorionox venture model, and if I want something more robust, the teravajakaripuko 140, which I own
LMMFAO 😂 you are great sir!
I try lol
My first proper knife was companion, but garberg was not appealing to me for the price they offered. All because it was full tang. If you are destroying companion you're gonna break other knives coz you're doing something wrong. I really like the blade profile of the benchmade. Do they come in longer blade?
It does. It’s the model 202
I love your fight with Mora fans
Lol. And buck fans too
you seem to be taking your feelings out on the knife because of some fanboys. it's a knife...it's subjective. Not everybody that goes in the woods is fishing and hunting...but most people going outdoors are probably camping and backpacking maybe canoeing. to build fires (emergency or not), make tent stakes, open food packages because they have prepared foods from home or store where a scandi grind may be best for them and is more important than gutting a fish or slicing perfect onions for their meals. Not everyone is an expert with a knife. A scandi grind could help out those who aren't. And handle size? I have both the puuko 200 and the garberg and the 200 handle is too small for my hand...again subjective. I did enjoy the video though as it was very entertaining!
Why you hatin on Mora dude?
Did you watch the whole video???
I like mora a lot but have never spent more than 40$ for one
PBKG finally caves in to the Mor-ans! 😂
I think the recycled steel is their stainless steel. The material of the handle is getting used to but isn't grippy enough, I would like a slightly bigger finger guard bcs of this, the carbon blade itself is great quality imo. The plastic sheath should be a little higher at the handle, since the added weight of being full tang. I also believe that the price has also increased slightly for their products since they had a change in leadership in Mora.
Another bushcraft blade that gets great reviews is the Condor Terrasaur. My favorite Mora is the Kansbol.
Yes! I wish he would check out the Terrasaur and let us know. It's half the price of the Garberg but very similar.
The Mora Garberg black carbon version is the definition of the perfect bushcraft knife ! No need spend big bucks. This. Gem will handle all of your bushcraft needs. Morakniv has a satisfying great product line . Very affordable,,probably going to bu
Yeah I'd agree and although mine came not so sharp as well it stropped up very easily in no time. The trick is not to strop it as a true Scandi grind, cause it isn't. I don't feel all precious about it and as here in the UK it's not a great idea to keep a knife on your belt, even (probably especially so) in an isolated forest. I can just put it in my bag, it takes up hardly any space and the shape of the sheath means I can squeeze it in somewhere or other. It throws great sparks. Even though yes I'll generally use a lighter first to get a fire going because I can, it's easy and fast, but it's also nice to know I'll get a few thousand fires out of a firesteel with it if my lighter gets wet, the flint pings out, and 100 other possibilities. It's an option and one worth having. The blade is strong as a blade ever needs to be unless you start using it like a moron and I've used it for a lot more than just processing wood. Yes there are mora 'fanboys', just like there are benchmade 'fanboys' and most benchmade guys and esee guys tend to live stateside where 'made in the USA' means this magic stamp of approval. To me personally and I'd guess to everyone outside the USA 'made in the USA' doesn't mean anything more than that. TRC who probably make the best thought-out, made and finished knives are in Lithuania... so being made in the USA only means something if you just want to.buy American. But I've found most of my most trusted gear, like fjallraven and mora and light my fire etc are usually Swedish. I'd also imagine a garberg will out live that benchmade. But time will tell. My carbon garberg cost £69 and I definitely can't complain at that. €80 is even less.
That mora is 60 bucks on Amazon but I'd go with the Spyderco "Bow River" which is only 49, if I was buying a knife for the woods. Only I already have a Spyderco Southfork so I'm not needing. Another favorite I have is the Doug Ritter RSK MK3 and also Cabelas Alaskan Guide series Vanguard with the rubber handle, I also have a Spyderco Sprig so I'm in good shape.😁
It’s not. The ss one is. I bought it on Amazon. With tax 74.54
I've seen the Bow River from $40-49. Great tackle box knife, unless your wife swipes it.
@@DavidNefelimSlayerlol wife swipes it😂😂
I wouldnt call myself a fanboy but I own a few mora companions. some HD and some regular.
They are great little inexpensive knives to have scattered around the house and in the car.
Ive even got one on the desk that I use as a letter opener lol.
Ive also got the Garberg and while I like it, I think what they should have done is just make a companion HD with a full tang.. Or if they are going down the full tang road.. make the Garberg a couple of inches longer. and a little less expensive.
That brings me to my latest knife....
Terava Jaakaripuukko 140
I would buy the benchmade and convex it
My thing is I love the handle geometry I just wish I had a little bit more of a guard to protect my hand if it oversliped my favorite Mora is the Tie between the Bushcraft black and the forest one
I was thinking about the bushcraft black. But this one was more attractive to me
@@peterbiltknifeguy my only gripe about the Bushcraft black is that little bump on the handle my hands are big and it kind of makes a hotspot
@@peterbiltknifeguy check out the Kansbol, same shape as the Garberg but with the regular Mora partial tang. Good value for the money, even if you have other tastes. I prefer to carry my Fallkniven and Bark River knives, but you can't beat the value of Moras when you want to toss a 10 dollar knife in a tackle box or glove compartment and forget about it until you need it.
You just got to have a Mora for each day of the week to be happy....LOL....Oh well can't love em all as like you say they are a great back up knife and no worries if it gets lost due to the low cost and of course I am speaking of the $10-$15 knives they sell...Good vid....Good stuff....
They are about a Big Mac a day in cost lol
@@peterbiltknifeguy 🤣🤣👍👍🔥🔥
Well, they are a low cost point knife.
Some of their models are definitely better than others.
I don't mind having an ok cheap knife to beat up on
Fan boys are obnoxious. And of course Mora’s are “good enough” budget knives. But listening to you critique the handle while the BM Puukko is sitting there is too much.
I would buy Eafengrow if I had to pay $80 for MORA.
I love Eafengrow
@@peterbiltknifeguy Me too!
I bought a Dala Red edition last year. I was severely disappointed that, although it has the exact same handle design as the Kansbol, is doesn’t have the TPE rubber on the handle material for grip and traction like the kansbol and my bushcraft black (which is still my favorite mora design…wish they’d make that knife in a full tang.) That hard plastic in the Garberg handle just feels really cheap and makes the knife handle unnecessarily slick given the lack of a better guard. It was a major turnoff for me.
You should try the ridiculously expensive wooden handled Mora, you’ll really hate it 😅.
... but were the Mora folk wrong?
lawls.
I like the Mora Companion and their other less expensive models but their higher end models like the Gaeberg and Kransbol are not close to being worth the price. I have never paid more than $15.00 for a Mora and I never will. Anyone that does has been blinded by the light. The Companion and Craft series are great budget options that are solid performers for the money. As for the higher end models, there are much better knives out there for the same and even half the price. Everybody likes a good solid budget option but don't get suckered into paying for the name. All Moras are basically the same design with different steels and different sizes. I like the Eldris but I'm not paying $40/$50 for what is basically half a companion. I believe in buying a knife based on it's true worth, no matter what brand it is. Just like Cold Steel, they have some excellent budget options then they have wuite a few ridiculously overpriced models that are no better than their budget line up, every brand does. I am not brand loyal, I buy based on quality and performance, as well as price, no matter the brand.
all scandic companies source the recycled steel from the same factory...mora fiskars gränsfors hultafors finnish brands etc its because they are going green its high quality steel..its not random cocktails of steel from as shop floor...i think mora garberg is overpriced...but the steel in in question is good quality...there is a going green hysteria in the scandinavian countries so saying recycled sells more knives then stating the steel type...not like the typical offfice weekend warrior will know what a steel type means anyway.
Go green all they want. If it’s high quality recycled steel why not say recycled 1095? Recycled 14c28n??? It’s not transparent and fishy to me
Not gonna lie, if Benchmade drops a Puuko in 3V that's Blacked Out, I am going to overspend my little heart out! F Mora.
😂😂😂👍

Hello my dude.
Thank you for the provided content from you, I really enjoy your videos and shorts.
I wanted to express my opinion on this video, because you seem somehow attacked by some people's opinions on a question you asked in a short, and from what I can see, you got affected by it.
From my point of view, as you stated in this video, people buy moras as a "throwaway" knife, or as a reliable cheapie you can throw in your bag and not spill tears when you lose or abuse to the point to which it is unusable.
Based on that, I do not understand why you would buy a 80 dollar Mora just to shit on it, when even you know this steers from the budget knife argument 😂
Also, another point of view is that alot of people cannot afford or do not want to buy a 100 USD plus knife, which essentially is a Mora which is more robust, and you sharpen it less frequently.
Sometimes it's hard to argue about a price of a knife, when you take it as a hobby, when most of the people which watch your channel might not, and they might see a knife not based on the value including the design, handle, sheath, brand reputation etc.
Most would be like 5 inch knife, carbon steel(its hard!) And a plastic rubberised handle 20 bucks vs 100 bucks, ehich would you choose?😂
Anyway, this is the argument I had.
Did not mean anything hateful towards you or your content, please keep making videos and destroying toilet rolls c: and have a nice rest of your day!🔪🔪
That’s a mouthful to respond to lol. I bought it because I had a gift card. It only cost me 15 bucks.
@@peterbiltknifeguy Sorry i got caught up. Good purchase.
Didn't get on the Garberg bus when it came out and probably never will. Went for an Enzo Trapper in a flat grind which cost less than the Garberg at the time, micarta handle, N690c blade (there were only stainless Garbergs at the time), a good leather sheath and it came sharp. Never regretted that decision for a second. Do like the Mora 2000s though, the handle is much more like your Benchmade and it's a good all rounder. It's about personal preference and what you do with it though isn't it, not about telling others what their preference should be.
Mora uses recycled steel in the stainless steels, it is like that, what is left of the residue of the stampings, plus the filings when they make the bevels that is reused again, because there is chromium in that steel, that is why they call it recycled steel, but not This is the case of carbon steel, investigate gringos, that won't hurt you. What I say is published by the company in one of its videos
Recycled tin is what i believe is what they're made with....Companion HD is a good beater knife for the $.
I have a Garberg and Companion HD but I can take or leave em.
For me, it's just hard to trust American made. I have had two LM's breake on me, one wave, one ps4, and then one cold steel american lawman. I own many knifes, and those are the only one that have failed me - except one victorinox that I abused to death. Never had a Mora break on me, no mather how hard I have beaten it in the woods. Just my experience.
I have. Twice. But it was abuse
I guess one can allow oneself greater subjective discernment when budgets and/or frugality don't play as much of a part in the purchase. I own the bushcraft black among many moras and assorted other brands seen as less 'premium' and, well, I quite like it. As in the eye of the beholder, I suppose such is also in the hand of the wielder...
Well said
I prefer the Benchmade, but I have to question why you'd get that instead of a traditional Scandinavian brand if you wanted a Puuko.
Because it’s 3v
Not everyone thinks the scandi grind is the best thing ever. It sucks for anything but carving wood.
The benchmades grind will carve wood just fine, and do other stuff way better.
@@SwampOperator Scandinavian maker, not scandinavian grind 😂
@@peterbiltknifeguy fair enough if you've got your heart set on a particular steel, but I'd be hard pressed to pick a knife where the steel choice mattered less than the BM Puuko with a blade that short. For its size and geometry you could get away with any number of steels and see almost no difference in performance. As Larrin Thomas of knifesteelnerds says, geometry is really the most important factor when it comes to performance and edge retention, and that shape is just so good it would work with almost anything.
Still a gorgeous knife I wouldn't turn down if someone offered it to me, it just seems like an odd choice if I was specifically looking for a Puuko.
I have taken my Mora Garberg to Afghanistan twice, Iraq once, Indonesia, Poland, Montenegro, and countless times fishing, camping, and hunting. It's been excellent. I definitely wouldn't consider myself a fan boy as I only own one. I can say without a doubt it's one of two knives I will always have accessible. The other is my Toor Overlord knife but I only use it during military operations. I'd respect the review if you didn't seem to be so strongly biased/had used it more/show your testing methodology.
Did you watch the end?
Be nice if it was a flat grind version
I bought one of these and what you’re saying I tend to agree with you on. It was I would class as semi sharp out of the box and your right the handle material is cheap so all in all not the value it’s cracked up to be.
Mora is okay nothing special about them at all I just have companions because and I tend to just give em away
The stainless steel version of the Mora Garberg was my first "expensive" knife, gained a lot of skill using one, was a pain in the ass as it came in the mail blunt... forced my sharpening practice😂
I have almost all of the Mora knives. The companions I have only in the carbon, I had the stainless but I gifted all of them.
With the exception of the Mora carving knives the Garberg is my favorite. I have used the hell out of the stainless but I feel the carbon Garberg is best for me. These are good blades regardless of the knife politics.
Depending on what someone needs it for, the Garberg is worth the money. Virtually indestructible and easy to sharpen. Hating stuff gets clicks, right?
Was i hating it? Did you watch the whole video
@@peterbiltknifeguyyou practically were, Even with the click bait
Thanks to fanboys these retail for the equivalent of US $130 here in Australia where they are very popular. I ended up buying a similar size and shape from China for $40 in DC53 and its damned near indestructible. All product fanboys are the worst, there's no talking to them.
I was never a mora fan boy but I managed to pick up a stainless Mora Garberg really cheap around £37.00, I can say after stropping the life out of it I absolutely love it, to be honest if I would have paid £60 I wouldn't have been disappointed. My view is that it's pointless having a go at people's knife choice as it's down to the individual what works for them. I find you can purchase a knife because of another's recommendation and find it doesn't work for you but does it make it a bad knife, no not really. I know a couple of people with the bench made puukko and they all love it, I know someone else who got one and wasn't very impressed. As I say everyone is different it's about what works for you and of course what you are using your knife for. I've been trying out a the Za Pas ultra outdoor knife for the last 4 months and it's an excellent camp knife, I have to say I've been impressed with it.
Sheath is ambidextrous.
The title of this video should be "I bought a Mora Garberg so you dont have to." Let the games begin!
Lol
@@peterbiltknifeguy now you have to try to Varusteleka Jaakaripuukko, it crushes the Garberg for even less money.

Weird
People must be preparing for an “Escape from LA”...lol
😂👍
You know; I have always wondered why it is that Bushcrafters Insist on a scandi grind. As you said, a scandi is SO limited in what you can do with it - it may well be excellent when it comes to wood-carving, but that's it. On top of this, a scandi is SO much harder to sharpen in-the-field. I imagine that bushcrafters sharpen their knives at home, on a full-sized wet stone held securely in a bench-vice, but sharpening it in the woods with a small hand-held stone... and keeping the original scandi profile, is almost impossible. And the Garberg comes with a secondary bevel? What's the point in that?!!
Give me a hollow or full-flat grind Any day.
Ive had a few moras. They actually kinda blow. Get the garberg killer. The jaakarripuukko
Mora hum ... its a light easy to sharpen knife for doing small tasks skinning animals light bushcraft cutting potatoes its not gonna hurt your feelings if you lose it for 80$ bucks ill spend a little more and get something better
Well I can smell the testosterone from here guys, knife discussion brings out the best and the worst in us,lol. But it's the differant likes and wants in a knife that keeps the industry turning out differant knives to tempt us, and boy do we get tempted, I've known guys whith drawers full of knives, who are still searching for the holy grail of a knife, but if that keeps em happy then who am I to condemn them , no matter which brand they are currently in love whith, lol. And the same goes for cars ,bikes, fancy fishing tackle catches more fishermen than fish, don't ask me how I know that,lol. And yes I buy knives for whatever reason I think I can justify the purchase for, some are keepers, quite a few are long gone after 75 yrs, do I have any regrets hell no, we only live once, enjoy what you can ,while you can. Thanks for the video mate, best wishe's to all, Stuart Uk.
A big thing when it comes to knives is personal preference, and personal experience. Obviously there are objectively bad knives out there, but if someone prefers a mora over a benchmade they are well within their right. If someone prefers a benchmade over a mora that’s well within their right. Neither of them may be better then the other over all, but because someone has experience with one means it’s the knife they prefer. People’s tastes and needs vary.
Cool. But when I show a knife without even mentioning a mora they feel the need to put their two cents in and either tell me to get a mora (like I don’t already have 10) or the mora is better. Nobody asked their opinion. If they want to make their opinion known. They can start a UA-cam channel. Like I did
Mora is a great stocking stuffer for someone else. The Garberg a slip of the tongue and you've made garbage, I believe is UHB-20C carbon steel.
You are correct. It’s comparable to 1095 I believe
I've heard of C100, which is pretty the same to 1095 or UHB-20C. Low abrasive wear resistance, good toughness.
No shit. The price tag is for REI fanboys that go ultralight hiking.
I love my Garborg with the leather sheath. But yes, a rubberized handle would be better. For me, this was the budget option.
I do like my mora, my martinni even more, but they aremt my top knives. They are great for little things and carving and stuff, but i have other blades i like much more. Mora is awesome for the price, its awesome for sure, BUT that diesnt nean it is the greatest, its the greatest budget bushcraft knife. There are many knives out there and im no fanboy of any one company at all. I have knives j like for certain things, mora is a great bushcraft knife, i use them to teach my kids who are boy and girl scoots, basic bushcraft survival. As for recycled steel, they mean their own steel they reuse what gets messed up and cant be used, thats all lol. I alsk have cold steel blades, custom blades, and many others.
Im not sure how any major knife company has fanboys. I go for knives that have purpose, my trust, look cool lol, and wont brake or leave me out there when i need them.
I like Moras but this one is a pass for me haha. Great video!!
I like them too
The only thing worse than Mora are the Mora fanbois. Ugh I literally hate them.
They are like angry poodles
I’m not a fan of this mora not really great for the price. I do like the cheap mora knives just because they are cheap! But if you were going to “give” me a knife and I got to choose between the Benchmade or a Mora of course I’m taking the Puuko all day. And yes there are definitely mora fan boys out there that get fanatical. 😂😂
Lol. I agree. I’m not a fanboy of either. They are all good
@@peterbiltknifeguy exactly every one has a purpose even if it sitting in a case as part of a collection
Well I would also prefer the mora companion vs that benchmade puukko. I bought 3 and chuck them in the glove box of each of my car, and 1 in my camping bag as spare knives. If they get stolen or lost, then it won't hurt that much. They are cheap but will perform as much as the much as the expensive knives out there. As for the sparks, you need to grind the spine of the blade to make it 90 deg and it will make good spark, still a very cheap mod.
Definitely not worth the upgrade in price, just need the cheap ones with a forced patina. lol I like that kind of complaining comment, your crying about a hate purchase! Priceless and you then called the mora guys retarded 🤔 It’s definitely overpriced for what it is just like the Benchmade and yeah sheath is hot garbage. I’d recommend a small custom maker once you’re getting into that price range. Support the small guy and local. Thx for sharing and can’t wait to see what’s coming.
High key I use only fero Rods for fire. keep in the bad. they don’t go bad. and use in rain and when dirty
Hey bro can i have the mora garberg? haha
Scandi grind is a lightsaber compared to v edge, but it's suuuupppper weak and will roll and chip easier.
I really dont like my garberg. Ended up convexing the blade. Maybe i like it a little better, i dont know... Love the kansbol, tho - great light little knife.
mora's are all coming with 2ndary bevels lately
I wonder why. A little cheaper?
All you people that grew up watching survivor shows with delusions of concurring the world with you’re Mora’s...Just remember, there is a generation ahead of you that grew up watching Rambo!
😂 and we fought dinosaurs
Lol
Mora knives are soulless, industrial with plastic handles, yes it does the job but it stops there, it will never be worth Benchmade, Tops, Lionsteel... It's like cars, a Toyota Corolla will take you wherever you want, a Dodge Challenger SRT will do the same thing but with added pleasure! 👍👍
FK....I wish I would've watched this first. I saw PBKG with a Mora and instantly ordered 10
Lol. I got no skin in this one. I don't own a Benchmade, because I'm frugal, and I only own 2 mora's
Both I bought blank and made scales for them as a project. They are great though.
I truly do love moras. Just not the fanboys lol
Wouldn't it be better to use it first?
Because it’s a first impression video
@peterbiltknifeguy ahh, but that was just my first impression. I didn't say it was the right one. (Yeah that'll do, you might not look semi-literate now uhum).
'This was a hate purchase for me'... ok so an objective opinion in its way
It was the most objective opinion on UA-cam. Because every other video on it just is just cheerleading.
@@peterbiltknifeguy fair enough
The Garberg is a great knife at $60 or less, indeed.
could you imagine this knife in magnacut?!?!?!
LOL jk jk
