Nice review Gijs. The Kansbol is my go to knife for years. It’s strong and lightweight, keeps sharp for a long time and is easy to sharpen as well. It’s a great allround knife for basically all jobs during hiking and campings trips, cooking included. And for more serious bushcraft jobs, its great too. I made many fires, spoons and other useful tools with it. It works for batoning, although knives with thicker blades do better. But for the money you can’t go wrong, so who cares if you break one. Not happened to me yet with the Kansbol though, only with other much more expensive knives.
Hi TR, Thank you for your feedback and sharing your experiences. They are like mine. Nice!
Thanks for this! I've been using the morakniv bushcraft version for a couple of years and it works like a dream. I use it for a lot of things like battoning logs into Kindle to make fires and it never fails. 👌
That is my experience 😄.Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
Excellent review and informative comments. I have subscribed to your channel, as well as researching more of your videos.
Being an old man, with years in the woods, I quickly learned proper equipment is paramount for a successful and comfortable time.
Of the many knives I've accumulated over the years, Morakniv products are nothing short of miraculous for quality and value. And I own nine of their knives in various design. The Kansbol, being the newest. A most impressive design and build. It's flexibility of useful design amazes me. If limited to just one knife, this would be at the top of the list.
Again, thank you for all your efforts to advise, test, and present honest evaluations.
You are very kind for an Angry Ranger 🙃. Thanks for the compliments and the sub! Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
Coincidentally, I also have both knives. I only have the bushcraft in carbon steel. And I agree with you the Kansbol is my favorite too.
Sweeeeet 👌Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
Hello Gijs,
I tried some Mora knives. I keep coming back to the Basic 511 (in black/orange) with carbon steel blade. No fancy grind, does everything and is very easy to sharpen thanks to the carbon steel. In particular, I find the so-called "outdoor" versions (Bushcraft, Kansbol, Carberg) overpriced compared to the normal versions.
I also only have a very small fire steel with me when I'm on a longer trip. Otherwise I use a lighter. The fire steel is just a backup in case the lighter breaks down, e.g. because it got wet.
When choosing my stuff I am very pragmatic. First of all, it has to work.
Hi TJ, The big knife I made myself is carbon steel and it is easy in use. Fully agree. Because of the compact size I like the Elders a lot. Bushcraft is sort of fancy I think at the moment. I have red one fierce debate in this comment section below and that sums it up. I like both knifes since they are practice to my use, nothing more, nothing less. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
@@OutdoorguruGearReviews I saw the debate, read it and just shook my head. When it comes to bushcraft stuff, and knives in particular, some people are going completely nuts.
I have to agree.
The Mora Companions, carbon + 12C27stainless, are better at slicing wood than the Bushcraft Black.
Simple logics.
With a scandi grind, thinner blade is better at slicing.
I also noticed that the Companion HD is a better wood slicer than the Bushcraft .
Do you modify the 511s to have flat spines? Thanks.
received my kansbol today. looks like it was used and returned, but I cant find why. It seems like amazing quality for the $30 price point, I cut some wood in my backyard and it feels so solid and cuts SO nicely
Ive never felt a knife cut so well personally but Im not as experienced as others
I cant imagine it being a bad buy for anyone at the price
Hi Clayton,
It is a super buy!
Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe!
Cheers, Gijs
Those are my two favorite Moras too. They are great knives. I do like the Kansbol more because of the grind and the thin blade.
Hi Chris, I do understand your number 1 and 2. Same here 😉. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
Hi. Very nice review as usual. How about a review of the tent behind you that would very nice?:)
Work in progress Finn 🤗 Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe!
Good video. I have a Mora Companion and just got a Garberg. Both are so sharp and easy to use. The Garberg is heavier and larger. I know I'm gonna love it. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Lawrence for the nice supportive and sharing comment 🙏. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
Thanks for the excellent review!
Thanks John 🤗 Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
Cool review mate. The Bushcraft is an amazing knife, I like them that much I own 3.
You’re very lucky to have land in Mora. It looks beautiful.
Hi Adam,
Sorry for my late reply but I was on holiday and gave myself some real time off and thank you for the very kind words. Mora is a nice small industrial town but the outdoor around it...👍
Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe!
Cheers,
Gijs
6 months later, I see your reply.😂
If you're ever interested, one very easy and relatively inexpensive option for setting that microbevel is just to donyour normal sharpening at 27° and then follow up with a few strokes on each side on a Spyderco sharpmaker. The wider option on the Sharpmaker is set at 40° and it's pretty failsafe/easy to use, especially if you're just adding a microbevel.
Btw, I just got the Kansbol, and I can't wait to try it out.
Hi Jason, Thanks for your comment. I have bought several sharpeners but not this one so thank you for sharing. The ones that I have that comes close is a Lansky but it is terribly bad manufactured. I don't get all the positive reviews. I also have a Smith sharpener with adjustable angles but that is not very satisfying either. Best job is just by hand.... Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
I have this knife. Super sharp and it was ultra cheap. Excellent ullity
Thanks Emran! Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
Excellent commentary. Subscribed.
Wihaaa! Thank you Jaded 🙏. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
I believe you might enjoy Mora Clipper a lot.
(Its spine needs 5 minutes of filing and sanding. )
Thanks for the tip! Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
The "microbevels" do not provide ant edge stability or any kind of performance boost on those knives. They are still a flat "V" edge as a scandi edge bevel is which jsut sextroy the cutting ability of tany knife. 1st thing you should do, on any new knife, is to reprofile it. On these knives you keep sharpening, until that bevel is removed. With proper sharpening and a bit of stropping, you get a Scalpel sharp edge, while the whole bevel is slightly convexed too! That's what will add more edge stability, more edge retention. That's not only because of the convex geometry, but also the steel that you removed, is called "bad steel" it''s the burnt steel, that all factory knives come with and you have to get rid of with some sharpening/reprofiling, for the edge to reach after some sessions, it's proper sharpness and most of all, it's potential edge stability, (means no chips no rolls on the edge) Enjoy!!
Hi GV, Partly agree. Micro bevels are a big debate I have noticed. One knife is just scandi grind by now for the reasons you explain, but on the other one I keep the micro-bevel quite nice and how I do this.... with a tool that I adapted to my needs. I will do a vid on this later (bit busy at the moment - its spring - with earning a living😉) . Cheers, Gijs Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
@@OutdoorguruGearReviews Convexed mirobevel, yes it provides more edge stability. However, the microbevels that some cheap knives come with from the factory, because they are "flat" bevels and because the steel is burnt from the fast belts that factories use to grind fast, do not provide edge stability at all.
Have you ever seen a custom knife, a handforged knife, or any kind of top quality knife, that has a "microbevel" on the edge??? I have never seen one, and that, should be an indication, for people who do not know much about knives, understand, that microbevels on cheap knives, is just a fast and cheap way to put an edge on a knife, and that it doesn't provide anything else, than poor and improper cutting performance.
No, I have not. It is for sure a price thing but fast and cheap is not (always) bad. I do have some wonderful very expensive and I don't use them like I use these. Just because of the beauty. I now: they can take a beating. The knife I made... no micro bevel 😇
Hey Gijs, maybe you can do a video on sharpening your knives? that would help me a lot
Hi Freek, Yes, that is to follow shortly ;-). Cheers, Gijs
thanks for review bro.
You are welcome! Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
Have you tried the Hultafors OK4? Its a bit cheaper than the Bushcraft but in the same category. I´m not sure whichone to go for as my first outdoors knife.
No, I am sorry I have not.
I'm deciding between Companion HD and Bushcraft. Can you give me advice?
I would advice the Bushcraft. It is a bit bigger, heavier and I like the grip more. I hope this helps. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
It took u a couple tries but u said batoning perfectly!! Bah-tah-neeng. Congrats just play your video and u said in one part batoning a few times in a row tying to pronounce it. The last two times u said it perfectly. So just listen for the last two or the very last time u said it.
Hi KGK,
Thanks for the feedback 🙏.
Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe!
Cheers,
Gijs
Used the Black many years and give it away and bought a Garberrg after this....well I think in order to create THE knife I would like to have a Garberg with a Black grip....maarja das mijn idee
😁👍 Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe Kayak Cobber! Niets mis met goede ideeën. Cheers, Gijs
Hey amico,
is it possible to remove the orange part off the sheath.
Can you dislodge it?
I don't want the attachment on that sheath. As is the case with the Bushcraft Black.
I heard it is glued upon the sheath. I don't want the firesteel and stone on the sheath..
Hi Ve, Not possible. I tried. You need to grind it off I am afraid. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
@@OutdoorguruGearReviews
I understand from Morakniv that it's glued on.
This is the answer I got:
"it can be removed with some force but I think the glue might leave a scar on the sheath."
Maybe the glue is like epoxy? It should be removable...I would think?
Or it might damage the sheath too much doing so.
@@OutdoorguruGearReviews
We should have the option to buy those sheaths without the extra's. For the same price as the Bushcraft Black. Which has the sheath also without the gadgets.
I like the simple sheath without attachments better.
Yes, put it in hot water. Some glues don't like it..... Let me know if this works
@@OutdoorguruGearReviews
Thanks for the tip.
But I'll have to get myself one first.
I was doubting to get one because od the sheath.
The sheath itself is fine, I have the Bushraft Black, with that same sheath.
I found the stone and firesteel too much on a sheath.
Complete dislike. It makes it almost as a Rambo knife they use to have a lot in the 80's .
With the compass. Really handy !
Pass . haha.
That's a huge rabbit!
Where did you find a forest ?:d
Around the corner 😉. Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs

Leuk! 🤗 Enjoy the Outdoors and Stay Safe! Cheers, Gijs
You should really practice your knife skills... Start from how to hold it properly. You need hundreds of hours of practice. I did that and much more when I was a kid. Puukko itself is not that important.
BTW neither of those knifes look good, they are too big, clumsy and have too wide blade. Bigger the blade the weaker it is to take shavings from wood (which is the main use for bush craft knife). If you need to cut down or split wood saw and axe are the correct tools
Hahahaha
@@KavalanSol What is so funny? You don't know how to use puukko either?
@@bekanav your demeaning tone of voice is. Also these knives work fine for chopping wood for kindle when on a hike and axes are not available. I've been using mine for years in hikes with ultralight gear.
@@KavalanSol Chopping wood with a knife is quite desperate unless it is very heavy. But then it is too clumsy for its main purpose as a general tool.
If you are going to have camp fires just take a small axe, it weighs less than 1kg. Much better than any knife. In Scandinavia it is not allowed to have a fire without land owners permission except in some wilderness areas and official places for it (which have firewood, axe and saw already there).
You can't fool me if you don't know how to use puukko, how to cut and carve wood. I see it immediately if person can or can't. It is a bit sad how weak most people are with basic tools.
@@bekanavit's called batoning and works fine. You sound like a real frustrated person. Hope you get over it haha.
Toch een alcohol vrij vegan leven valt aan te bevelen. Om zo veel redenen. ;-) De konijnen zullen er blij om zijn.
