Mora 2000/2010: What's the purpose of that grind?

[jontok]

It just seems that since the bezeled edge doesn't go as far back as a normal Scandi grind, it would be just as easy (or difficult) to sharpen as a normal flat grind blade.

I think you just have to see one in the flesh.
Think of it as a smaller scandigrind in front.

Think of it this way: if the blade was the same thickness all the way, then the bevel would be the sam height all the way to.
But as mentioned the front is lower because the blade is thinner there...

Hope this didn't comfuse you more!

I have heard from reliable accounts that the Swedish go on many hunting trips and found that the regular Mora was not very good at spreading butter and Pate when they stopped for food so a designer for Mora came up with that grind !

Qft !
