Light knives choice for hiking

[pitdog]

Looks a good set up to me, I hardly notice my little Mark Wohlwend Bushy when it's on my belt:

You've got a pretty good setup already. It's hard to beat a Mora for light carry. I would probably back up the Mora with a small Victorinox of some type, but that's just a personal choice.

Recently, I have been carrying the Izula in a pocket sheath from KSF and I really dig that setup. I totally forget it's there, where a neck knife usually seems a little obtrusive to me. The Izula is not a bad knife at all, but I do prefer the extra blade length of a Mora (and the cost). Might be an option work looking at though.

I think you have a great combo there already. I can't think of a way to improve that combo. Good job. Sheath look very nice.

I think you have a great knife and sheath setup (makes me want to start learning to bend Kydex.) I would probably have to carry a second knife though, maybe SAK like a Farmer or another small folder which might defeat your purpose.

I've carried several different small fixed blades backpacking, my current one is a custom Fallkniven WM1 ~ 3 oz
