    Nice shelter build with just a knife. I have never owned a Mora but have heard only heard good things about them. Once I built a shelter and I woke up to a pack of coyotes all yipping and carrying on about 30 feet away from where I was laying. They kept moving so I just rolled over and went back to sleep. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work brother.

    I moved to Malmö from NL almost two years ago and one of the things I love here is the Swedish attitude towards enjoying nature. Your videos are a great example of that and I find them very inspiring. I love camping and I would like to try some overnight hikes this year. Eventually I would love to walk the Kungsleden but I think I should start a bit smaller. Do you have any recommendations for simple overnight hikes in Sweden? Perhaps Skåneleden? I absolutely love Söderåsen but I guess Skåne has more to offer. Also I'm wondering where to start in terms of gear. I have good outdoor clothes, but no tent and backback etc. Do you have any tips on where to start with this? Keep doing what you're doing!

    If me, I wouldn't choose Mora Kansbol or Mora 2000 (their last version) for trips where I need a reliable knife. Because its tang has a very deep grooves near the begin and many new Mora knives (kansbol, new 2000, new bushcraft, new basic 511, new pros) broke in this position.

Mora company know this, but I think they made deep grooves on the tang for easier to set up when heat treating multiple knives at the same time.
      Moreover, for the many new plastic handles models , there are joints between the blade and the handle. So the water and dirt can penetrate the tang, in the long term it is not good.

My anorak no8 is superb at the moment purchased at the same time as the trousers. Il just stick to £20 German army trousers that have lasted over 5 years with no holes or damage. Not impressed with g1000 at all. The only good thing I can say about vidda pros is there feature rich that’s it. Also my ex British army trousers at £15 per pair are nearly 8 years old with no holes both the German and the British trousers have been worn nearly all the time compared to the fjallravens.
