Morakniv Companion Heavy Duty Knife with Sandvik Carbon Steel Blade, 0.125/4.1-Inch

For the money there is no better knife for your outdoor adventures than the Mora Companion HD! Although its not a full tang design, it is still a remarkably strong knife, and the Scandi ground edge is superb for bushcrafting. My only real complaint is that the spine doesnt have sharp 90° edges on it for striking a ferro rod and using as a scraper, but that is pretty easy to fix with a few minutes and a file. Its possible to start a fire using just a piece of sharp flint or chert and striking it against the spine of the knife to produce a spark. This is always a nice feature to have on an outdoor knife! A word of caution though, the Mora Companion Heavy Duty does have a high carbon steel blade, not stainless, and it will rust if not taken care of. Personally I prefer high carbon steel as it is a much better blade material than all but the most expensive varieties of stainless steel and it sharpens easily, but it does require more care. So keep it oiled! (Mineral oil or olive oil both work great, and, unlike petroleum based oils, they wont contaminate your dinner if you use your knife for food prep!)

My Morakniv Companion HD can handle any task short of requiring a Kabar or Gerber Mk II. Its carbon steel blade sharpens easily and holds an edge. The blade design, itself, is fully functional for the woods, game dressing, or the kitchen, and will spark a firestarter with no problem. (This is my second one. My ex-roomie recognized the quality, and stole my well-used first one.) This one is in my emergency kit, with a Victorinox (saw blade, can opener), firestarter, and sharpener.

I have several of these and have bought them as gifts. They are great inexpensive knifes. Great on the boat and have even cut up a deer with one.

Wow! I can honestly say that this is the first knife that I have purchased that can slice through paper so easily! I have purchased lots of knives throughout my life and have never had a knife as sharp as this one is right out of the box. For the price paid, this is an awesome knife!! I am very happy with this purchase!!

Cant go wrong with this one

Great little knife. Will buy again anytime!

Did not come in original packaging like the last one I purchased. Had some scuff marks on blade. Blade tip not uniform like the last one also.

Super sharp, really solid feeling knife with a great price. Hard to find a legit survival knife in this price range that has a full (or nearly full) tang. My only gripe is the sheath looks and feels really cheap.

This is an amazing knife. No joke. I have been cleaning deer for 30 years, and this knife is hands down the best knife I have ever used to dress a deer. It is crazy sharp and surgically precise (and yes, I work in surgery). It does dull out when skinning the deer; but as far as field dressing and gutting, I have never seen anything like it. I bought it for bushcraft but havent had a chance to use it for that yet. Worth every penny.

This is the first Morakniv Ive bought. Its a very nice knife. The blade, made of carbon steel, does tend to rust so Im going to force a mustard patina on it which should prevent it. I was worried about the plastic sheath, but it holds the knife very securely. Pleased with purchase.
