Hi guys- Most of us are probably familiar with the Mora Classic knives -
I’m looking for a ‘Mora on Steroids’. Full tang with a good steel & heat treatmeant for ‘bushcrafty’ tasks, especially carving wood. Scandi edge with no micro-bevel. It’s particularly important that the handle be scaled up for my 2XL glove wearing hands. For example, I want the handle to be about 1 inch in thickness, or so. It should be of the general Mora Classic barrel shape, with oval cross section. This is comfortable held in just about every orientation. Here’s an example of a hand made knife that was offered years ago through a small wilderness skills school, but is no longer available through them -
Does anyone know of a maker providing knives similar to this today ? I’d want one with a leather sheath and dangler.
Thanks in advance for your comments & suggestions.
