So if you were to make a knife with a wood sheath, how tight should the wood sheath be? Some hold and grip over the blade or just non-effort slide out? The leather above also grips the blade i suppose.
>>65495390
Goddamn $300 for a fucking Mora?
>>65495390The closest thing I have uses felt, I think, to provide tension on the blade.>>65495414They are clearly competing with Fallkniven, off the top of my head the model A1. I have no problem with Mora making better knives. Is it worth two Peltonens to me? Not really, although it would be an excellent knife. I did buy a full tang Peltonen M07 so I might just be retarded.

>>65495275>secondary bevelInto the trash it goes. If I wanted an overpriced prybar made of meme steel I'd buy it from Fallkniven and get a decent edge grind while I'm at it.>looks goodNo the fuck it doesn't.
>>65495390When I made puukko's in junior high woodworking class, I think the wooden sheath was just one cut of circular saw and it holds fine the blade with some friction. Then you glued a piece of wood on the top to close it.
Just got an Auto RSK in Magnacut and G10 and I think I've found the one. Feels amazing in my hand, definitely underrated. If you can carry automatic knives, it's because of Doug Ritter so you owe it to him to buy a knife and I'd say the Auto RSK is as good as any.
>>65495414Why would I pay this kind of money when I could get an ESEE knife with a Kydex sheath and Micarta handles? They have a no questions ask forever guarantee on their knives. Glass fiber is kind of a joke at this price imho
>>65497179I own a few Esee knives. 1095 is the most basic bitch wet noodle steel out there. They have a finger choil (gay). No swedge on the larger models for stabbing. CM6 does, but costs as much as the carbon Mora somehow. Flat handle scales suck. 3D milled scales also somehow suck and made for handlets. The only good Esee knives are the Xancudo and the AGK in stainless. Just get a Peltonen instead, they cost less than the most basic bitch design made from the most basic bitch steel in the US somehow.
>>65496716i see. i'll report back later on it.
I feel like commissioning a Bowie knife with an M9 bayonet compatible lug on the guard. US Model 1900 Krag had a few Bowie knife style bayonets made but they never got much service. I just think this would be neatJust don't know who to pester lol
>>65497741Somewhere on the internet was selling the guard and socket for M9 bayos, I was tempted to get a Mora classic #3 and rebuild it.

The owner of Montana Knife Company thinks "You want to have a good, coarse ground burr for cutting." He thinks it is the burr that cuts.
I'm impressed with Marttiini, this thing is incredibly light and handy. Recommend me some vuolu puukkos.
>>65501082Why does someone always bring this up as if it means anything.Normal moras have a basically nonexistant microbevel that has zero impact on cutting, and is just an artifact of cheap sharpening. The garberg has a real ass secondary bevel they call micro, that has a massive impact on slicing. This has an even worse one.

>>65502515>inane textual post>no img>img bbsCool story bro.
>>65503560>talking about knive>in the knife threadHow dare he.
>>65501280>Normal moras have a basically nonexistant microbevel that has zero impact on cuttingIt has a huge impact on sharpening when noobs put the knife on the stone with the flat part of the primary bevel and then wonder why they grind and grind with their new 3.000 grit water stone and the knife still wont get any sharper.
>>65501272While ilves is a damn fine knife, DO NOT baton it. The rat-tali tang WILL break. I tried it, and it broke. Should have believed when they told me that it would. If you want a truly indestructable utility knife that will not break unless you fully intend to deliberately break it, go for Peltonen's Ranger knife or Varusteleka's Jääkäripuukko. Those are conscript/grunt proof. They are a bit expensive these days, but not exorbitrantly so unlike some knives who go for ridiculous gucci price range.. They will last longer than you will. Buy good, cry only once.
>>65495275I don't understand the appeal of Moras. Straight back and scandi grind make them obvious hunting and woodworking tools, but wtf is using them for dressing animals and shack-building in current day and age.
>>65503700You can still get a Peltonen for $100 if you get it on sale. Some places normally carry them at $109. The cost, weight, performance, and vibes are hard to beat. Of course Teravas are now easier and cheaper to get.

>>65503700>While ilves is a damn fine knife, DO NOT baton it. The rat-tali tang WILL break. I tried it, and it broke. Should have believed when they told me that it would. How stupid can you even be. There has to be a limit, right?
>>65503869They're cheap and they work. If you beak or lose one, you don't give much of a shit.Faggotry in the OP notwithstanding, of course. The curse of brainlet consumerism isn't going away any time soon.
>>65503869>wow this knife is good for cutting hide, meat, and wood>it must be useless?????What do you even want a knife to be good for? Want it to be an infinitely worse axe? Maybe an extremely dangerous and low quality crowbar? Youtube and its consequences have been a disaster for knife design.
>>65503993Probably someone who thinks they will be stabbing people more than quartering game or making tarp supports. Thats not to dismiss tactical knives, they have their place. But to be confused about the utility of a Mora is silly.>>65503989Mora isn’t allowed to make a better knife? I wouldn’t recommend the Elmax model at all, but the carbon and 14c28n models should be good to go if you want the features.
>>65503700I have one of those older model ranger knives where the blade is actually V-shape from the edge to the back of the blade. They aren't exactly scandi-grind, just a V-shaped blade. (the upper blade in the picture)And... they are surprisingly good for in-the-field cooking. Chop onions and gut fish like a chef's cooking knife. It's almost kinda shame they have phased them out for more scandi-like blade profiles. The older models rule!
>>65504036>Mora isn’t allowed to make a better knife?What about it is better? Worse grind, mediocre steel at bad hardness, worse grip just like the garberg, worse sheathe. It's worse than a $20 mora any day. Oh but thank god it's got an even thicker blade so the knife can cut even worse.
>>65504066I’d love a flat grind model, an M07 with flat grind would make a nice hunting knife.>>65504168>stop liking things I don’t like Ok anon.
>>65504307Do you like carbon steel at 57 HRC with a 4.3mm thick blade and a chunky grind that can't slice properly? Do you like paying $200 for this bundle of bad decisions? It's no good for woodwork now that it has been ruined, it's worse for processing game, it's vastly inferior to other options at the pricepoint for retard shit like batonning and other useless meme shit youtubers do, so what is the point?If you do like it you're a retard. You can keep liking it, that's fine. But it really throws everything good about the mora right into the trash.>scandi grindgone>cheaplol>simple sheathe that can just be slipped on or off, but retains the knife wellhow about we have a rattly cheapass thing that can't clip onto a belt, but oh thank god it has MOLLE compatibility, what do you mean you can just take a mora and clip it onto MOLLE and it works even better?!>nonslip perfectly ergonomic gripHow about some slippery plastic with a bunch of ridges cut into it to try to fix this, that doesn't work.Takes everything about the garberg that was trash and amplifies it. What a dogshit knife. The only good thing is it will part retards from their money. I cannot see any reason anyone would buy this over a fallkniven. Cost the same, get a better grip, better grind.
>>65504036>if you want the featuresThe point is that if you want "the features" you're an idiot. Can't even blame Mora, a fool and his money etc.
>>65501316>>65501304Same with Ukraine
>>65504362>>65504412I’m not disagreeing, for me the M07 is a perfect “survival knife,” perhaps the M95.
>>65502515same but about the counterpoint xl, this thing basically replaced all my mid-size belt knivesthe stupid fiberglass in the handle plastic scratches the shit out of the blade but for $60 I wont complain
>>65501272get something customhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1IdatkLLVA

>>65504453Yea, it the same
>>65495275Does anyone have one of these turkish kilij swords?https://youtu.be/nd7L1GJ1GeE? Apparently skallagrim liked it at first but then complained it was too heavy with a slippery grip, but I just fucking love the blade profile and it’s only $300
>>65505644I have a kilij but not that kilij
>>65505649Oooo thats nice, is it a Peserey? The grip definitely looks more secure than the one from swordbuy.co
>>65505666Yes it is. The grip is super secure and comfortable
>>65505675Damn I wish he made a kilij with the same profile as the one I posted, I would definitely save up for that but unfortunately none of his blade shapes really do it for me, especially for the price
>>65503700https://varusteleka.com/en-row/products/varusteleka-skrama-240-carbon-steel otherwise for a hefty knife
>>65504543>for $60Where are you finding this for $60?
I love my Buck 110 Slim Select, carried it for years. Convince me not to drop $200 on the 110 Slim Heritage Elite in Magnacut
>>65506609No. Maybe wait for an auto?
>>65506169Their Tiny Knife is also kinda neat, but it badly needs a real sheath.
>>65506609>110 Slim Heritage Elite in MagnacutThat one isn't one hand opening, but how about a crossbar 110 for $250?
>>65506676Plan is to add one of those classic brass bolt-on thumb studs
>>65506601hunting on ebayit was really $60 + $6 s&h + $3 pre-paid debit card desu :3
>>65506863Thx, Knife Center is $20+ cheaper than Amazon and still over $100.
>>65506887GSM phased out the plain edge model last year btw, anyone not wanting a gay serrated one better act soon
>>65500339Can you tell me what kind of kukri this is or where i could get it?
>>65506808Oh, there you go. Magnacut gets cooler the more I learn about it. What makes stainless steel brittle is large chromium carbides because you need chromium for it to be stainless, but what Larrin did was add other elements that bond to the carbon, I think, so that all the 10% of the chromium remains "in solution" just for stainlessness and most of the wear resistance comes from smaller, harder Vanadium carbides. It's still unimpressive as far as edge retention goes, compared to other super steels, but it's way better than 420hc and it's got that super toughness while being stainless, and magnamax just adds more vanadium and stuff to be a more wear resistant super steel, but is less tough as a result. It's a true innovation in knife steel chemistry.
and the new erasteel magnacut is cleaner and therefore tougher than old cpm magnacut
>>65507568Part of the appeal and justification, in my mind, for the price would be finally getting something in Magnacut for my collection. Seeing as how the cheapest Magnacut folders are generally ~$175 makes paying $200 more palatableEdge retention doesn't worry me too much, I'm confident with my Sharpmaker. Haven't seen the need to move up to an adjustable-angle system yet
>>65507609When he says "unimpressive" he means compared to turbo-autism supersteels that all have crippling flaws that prevent them from ever catching on. Magnacut has very good edge retention.
>>65506887>>65507079Free shipping ends tonight and I had >4k points, so ordered.
>>65507807oof...have fun resharpening and re-beveling that thing eventually
>>65507905Protip- you never have to sharpen knives you don't use.
>>65507905Besides, I'll just send it back to Cold Steel Reserve.
>>65507568Magnacut's edge retention is actually pretty good because it's toughness and wear resistance are good. It's tougher and more stainless than super wear resistant steels and it's more wear resistant than super tough steels.>>65507609What? The cheapest Magnacut folders you can find under 100. Hogue Deka and Ontario Rat come to mind. Wait for a sale. If you really can't wait you can find them around 120-135 on sites that don't rip you off.
>>65508739I should also mention I got my Magnacut Manix 2 Salt for 103 shipped but that's cause there was a sale and I used the first time $25 off at Eknives so YMMV.
>>65508739>>65508744Good looking out, I haven't looked at many Magnacut folders in the last couple years, had no idea they had filtered down into those price tiers
>>65508752I have a Hogue Auto RSK, Hogue Mysto, and Spyderco Manix 2 Salt all in Magnacut and so far I'm pretty happy with them. The Auto RSK especially I feel could be my one and done knife.
Order finally comes tomorrow.
>>65510863I too always enjoy the temporary endorphin rush that fades to sadness and gloom.
>>65510884Maybe it's a temporary sadness and gloom that fades to an endorphin rush.
>>65510884Yeah… I already know what I’m going to order next. And I might have to get my father a Rokka, for some reason he really liked it mine.
