I got three new Mora's today. I had ordered another Carbon Clipper, the Laminated steel 3 inch carving knife and the Morakniv Scout. The green one. Razor sharp from the box as usual. I am going to get a snap shot of my Mora's to post if I can remember how. My son showed me twice but I am an old low tech guy.:D

Now just get some sheaths from normark and you have yourself a thirty dollar slicing machine that will stay nice and secure when not in use! :D

Let's see some pictures!
 
I do need to get some of those good sheaths for sure. I have made a few for the older clippers.

Pictures!

Actually, I'm going to purchase a Mora. Which is best for all around hiker use? As well as not being too pricey, although Mora seems to be awesome when it comes to price...
If I am not being specific enough, feel free to whittle away my ego, as others have before...

Fencerboy, you forgot to mention how affordable they are. ((( :D )))

Hey Jim,
Would you mind posting a picture or three?

hehehe (I couldn;t resist) :)
 
I recently picked up the Carbon Clipper, FANTASTIC knife - I'm more into bushcraft and hiking as appose to collecting or what have you - so the cheaper the better as long as it gets the job done. I think i'm going to pick up the Mora 2000 for Xmas - Seems a little heavier duty and easier on the eyes.

Can anyone suggest me a good sharpening device for these blades? i'm a novice when it comes to knives.
 
don't use a sharpening device on a mora, or you'll change the scandi grind, This grind is what allow sth emora to cut through wood with such effectivness, the morasw happen to be really esy to sharpen free hand with just a stone, simply press the angled portion of the blade (bevel) down flat against the stone and push and grind... no need to worr about angle as the bevel than guides you.
 
Like RR said. you don't want to change the angle on the blades. The one thing I like is that they are so easy to sharpen at home or in the field. That, and they so cheap if you break, mess up or lose one.
