I have been using a mora bushcraft black since 2016 it has never had a problem . I want to get a garberg or another bushcraft scandi style knife but I always just stay with what I have why mess with the formula . Great video btw I would watch this format every time even if it was three hours
My favorite's are: Budget : Mora Bushcraft Black. Premium: Lionsteel M4 (M390) It takes some reprofiling to make it work as it should. Hi-End: TRC Mille Cuori (Vanadis 4 Extra) + Survive knives GSO 4.5 (CPM 3V). My edc is a Manly Patriot (D2). I also love my custom knives made with forged Ballbering steel. that steel performance,is second to none. Outperforms CPM 3V on edge retention easily (almost 2 times more) while having the same toughness and even better edge stability in my experience. The only knife that I would get if I could, from all those shown here, is that Marauder Knife and Tool at 1:23:07 Not for the looks, but because I know how a great knife design looks, when I see one, since I'm more of a user than a collector,since I was raised in the mountains of Crete,where knife is status here and people don't go crazy if you have a fixed blade on your belt, they do though, if you don't!
I have the Cold Steel Finn Wolf. I simply love it. A very strong puuko style folder with all of the features a bushcraft knife needs. It's one of the few folders with a scandi grind. It also has a 90 degree spine.
I love my mora’s. I have the originals and the bushcraft one. Great around camp light work blades. I’m planning on getting a condor parang to be my heavy use blade.
BM162 is one of the most underrated bushcraft knives out there. Probrably bc its made by BM, but its really a good design since its a Sibert design and not a BM inhouse one.
For the sub 100$ range: Have you tried the Terävä Jääkäripuukko, and around the 100: something from Joker knives in spain? The Jääkäripuukko is like a Mora you can't break. And from Joker i got the Nomad: N690, convex and and one of the sharpest knives out of the box i ever bought.
the Condor Terrasaur is also ambidex sheath, I have one and I really like it! that is a solid sturdy budget knife! I prefer it over the garberg which I have too.
The Mora is the best known budget blade, but the Hultafors GK Heavy Duty Knife is a bit better deal, a bit more comfortable handle, and a bit tougher knife.
Bushcraft blade is the blade you choose to satisfy your specific needs in specific zone you enter like as desert, jungle, highlands, woods, … So it’s up to users budget, accessibility, experience, size, gender, priority, habits, wisdom, even statistics preferences and many more factors.
Bought a Mora companion spark and a Casstrom No 10 recently. Probably the mora perform better but the casstrom looks pretty. I think I’ll try a Joker next
I had BHK make me a woodsman pro in aebl, looks incredible! Been very responsive. However There is a warp in the blade, i contacted them and they said send it in if youd like, so i appreciate that (warping can happen to any company so by no means is this a complaint)! I just was wondering your thoughts, does a warped blade effect the toughness at all?
I need to get in on the next run of T17.4's. I might stray from the design of my T17 (now the .6) and my .3 (Black G10 with orange liners). I like the Burlap Micarta.
Haven't made a batch in a while but man they are beautiful. TFK is quite busy but hopefully I'll get another batch ready in the near future. We have another project slowly in the works
With respect to the Pathfinder, Battle Horse and LT Wright knives...LT and Dan (of Battle Horse) used to run a company called Blind Horse Knives, and they made the original Pathfinder knife designed by Dave Canterbury for the TV series...
I have a ton of knives but it seems like cpm 3v and cpm magnacut is the go to on the mid to high end and 1095 kind of on the lower to mid tier however I've been noticing some knife makers use 1095 and charge premium prices for it.
Some of these knives will serve you for an hour or two, but are definitely not for Bushcraft at any real level. Rounded spines, cr chinese steel, hollow grinds, these are for people who might make a sharp stick to cook hot dogs or marshmallows. Maybe a short hike, or a couple days of car camping.
Both of the Flissa D2 full tang knives should have been on this list. They are both $20 and are amazing. Much better than Mora, pretty much the same as Bestech Hedron but for $80 less.
FWIW...Ganzo's 8cr14mov is a better steel than the recycled Mora steel which is rated at 12c27n? It is also simply much better than the recycled carbon steel for anyone near marine waters.
I sell those directly myself but I don't have any in stock currently. If you would like to discuss possibilities please reach out to me at outerlimitless@gmail.com Thanks!
Still doin your TFK series? Was on their website recently and didnt see much. Dude your blades are awesome I hope they are I kick myself for not getting in on one when you were doing your batches life was happening at the time lol

Tena Korua,(Greetings,you two).
This is very interesting and you two guys are reall passionates :) BTW, the 3rd knife is not "bushcraft series". It's the Kansbol. It would have been nice to add the name of the knives in the video itself because sometimes we can't even figure out the name when it's too uncommon. I know it's in the description, but still... :) And it was a loooong video. Each segment should have been a video by itself. It's hard to keep focused for that long when there are so many details and info.

Bushcraft, survival is just marketing. Anyone that was raised doing outdoor activities before youtube. The one term was wilderness survival. . Some how the knife companies marketing division figured you call something survival you could make more money. So they built over done knives just incase someone actually uses it. Now Bushcraft knives are survival knives that are actually designed to use, at least some. I guess my point is don't worry about marketing and labels. Figure what you want to do. Then get a knife that does it well.
@@1800moonSugar no I don't agree with most of that. Tell me what survival skills aren't part of bushcrafting? Different tools have different functions but no one knife does everything good. Skills will always Trump marketing gimmicks. Would a swiss army knife be a survival knife? Army survival kits used to give you a Kamp king.
This is an old man story about knives. About 70 years ago two kids got two different knives. One guy got an original Mora with the wood handles the other kid got a Canadian knife. 70 years on we still argue of what is better. Truth? We just agree my Canadian is better. Why? My friend would have to admit that with his better rifle I killed and processed more Cap Bufs than he did. The term “bush craft” is for me a new thing and I don’t understand why it’s important to beat a knife up to make fire wood. For me having a knife that could clean a horses hove was important. And if absolutely necessary hammer in a shoe nail. To be truthful. Idiots picking a knife blade they will never use is the same topic as what caliber of rifle is the best. My answer will always be the same. A Canadian 5” and a 9.3X 62 bolt rifle. Yes I’m a FUD but tell me how good you can gut and process an elephant or a hippo and don’t bring up the ulu.. carved a whale as well
I've never understood the 'hype' around Winkler knives. Every single one of his outdoor tactical knives looks like it was made by a beginner! Boring design, simple materials. There's nothing spectacular or beautiful about the steel, the handle scales, or the sheath fittings. When I started making custom knives over 10 years ago, my worst knife looked better than any of these Winkler knives. Winkler's history is nice and all, and it's fine that he made a tomahawk or knife here and there for SEAL Team 6, but that doesn't mean his knives are worth the hype.
Nessmuk designs for bushcraft is stupid, IMO. The Nessmuk belly is made for skinning, which anyone who calls a scandi a good skinner is not a hunter. Along those same lines, it's weird how Cantenbury makes his entire line of knives all scandis even though a few of them are specifically called skinners. Absurd.
If you heirloom a chinese made knife to your kids I feel bad for them. Especially considerjng we'll as likely as not be at war with them before you get to pass it down...
Yes! Glad to see collections by real dudes that connect with their blades! Thanks for sharing and hoping wifey’s are onboard!

So good!
That Nomad is dope
The Terrasaur sheath is in fact ambidextrous. You slide sheath out of the plastic loop that the dangler is attached to and reverse direction

Im really interested in Joker Knives I've heard there good knives for the mid price range
BRK Bravo's are actually Convex edged
And you said total flat
