Morakniv Kansbol Fixed Blade Knife with Sandvik Stainless Steel Blade

This is a GREAT knife. Just buy it! You wont regret it.

Great feeling knife. Very sharp. Will use alot. Would buy another.

Great knife! I have several different Mora knives of varying sizes and builds. This one rivals the heavy duty version of the Companion for heft and use. The 90° spine is a plus, as is the small ferro rod included. Theres also a diamond sharpening strip, but Ill never use that except for chipped edge repair as its way too coarse to maintain the fine edge this comes with. Ill stick with whetstones and stropping, thanks. Seems like a gimmick rather than practical. The dual grind is interesting and functional for finer work near the tip. While I prefer carbon steel for bushcraft, this one has the stainless blade. Its JUST a hair thinner than I like for serious crafting like batonning, but is still robust enough for that - could be just a little thicker, especially when using the more brittle stainless. This ones going in my hiking pack.

You wont find a better value from any other knife manufacturer - Morakniv is truly THAT GOOD. The Morakniv Kansbol is no exception to the brands excellent reputation and lineup. With a 2.5mm thick Sandvik stainless steel blade, this is a lot of knife for not a lot of cash. The scandigrind blade edge is very easy to resharpen even for those of us who just plain suck at sharpening their blades (like myself). Unfinished top edge serves as a striking surface for the included flint stone. Along with the knife itself, this set comes with a sheath, flint stone, leather belt loop (removable from the sheath), and a short length of paracord. The knife is extremely comfortable, and the handle fits into my small handles effortlessly to provide excellent grip and control. Unbeatable value for the quality you get. You cant go wrong with the Kansbol, or any other Morakniv at that. They last a lifetime and never let you down.

Nothing

Great! I’m a huge fan of Mora as both an entry level tool, and a collectors piece for a knife snob, haha. I took it hunting with me, and I’ve even used it to slash open amazon packages, it’s awesome. Absolutely love it. You won’t find anything better, or of a higher quality for the price, and even for a great deal more money.

Last year I bought a fancy looking bush crafting knife with a beautiful wooden handle and an impressive leather sheath. It looks like a million bucks. But with knives, how they LOOK and how they PERFORM are sometimes completely unrelated. This Morakniv Kansbol is not the most beautiful knife by any stretch, but it IS incredibly sharp, durable, and functional. Out of the package, the blade is razor sharp and ready to use. The stainless steel should withstand serious outdoor usage. The handle is comfortable and highly functional; I have medium-large hands, and it fits great for me. Ive shown it side by side with an Opinel No.8 pocket knife for size comparison. Beyond the knife itself, the sheath is excellent. Theres a perfect level of resistance to prevent the knife from coming out on its own, yet its still quick and easy to remove when its needed. Theres also a leather belt loop that looks like it should fit on any belt up to 2.25 wide. On one side of the sheath is a diamond sharpener, which will be useful if I ever need to sharpen quickly while in the backcountry. The other side of the sheath holds a fire starter. I really like the way the fire starter also snaps into place so it wont fall out while Im on the move. On the downside, I wasnt able to produce a very great amount of sparks from the fire steel they provided, and since its custom-made to snap into the sheath, I cant replace it either. (Personally I have other tools for fire starting, so Ill just consider this a backup option.) Considering the build quality of this knife, and the stellar reputation the Morakniv has built and maintained, I think this knife is a great value at $60. For me, its immediately going into my camping bin and replacing the more expensive, less functional knife I bought last year!

Great knife for the money!

I love mora knives. This is a very good knife but there are others that are better. The finish on this is less perfect than others.

Love it made well and will buy it again.
