Hello:

I am about to get my first Morakniv and I am stuck between the Pro Robust and the Companion HD. I mostly want to use it for hunting and hiking. I don't plan on ever batoning, and I am not into bush craft...I like to day hike, I like to hunt. There are plus and minus to both. I would use this knife to cut small limbs out of a deer stand, field dress deer, and breast out turkeys . Both appear to be very strong (same width I believe), but while the robust has a 3.5 in blade, the companion had a 4.1 in blade, on the other hand, the Robust has a more sweeping blade profile. Also, 3.5 in carries a bit better. I know that it sounds like I am leaning towards the Robust, but I would like to know why the companion is 3x more popular, got to be a reason why, and If so, should I get the companion? Just kind of stuck on what to do. Please offer advice. Thank you!
 
I have both, I prefer the companion. The reasons are I prefer the smaller handle and thinner blade stock in comparison to the Robust. Others may prefer a thicker blade and larger handle but in my hand the companion just feels better.
 
Thanks for the reply. Moved thread to general knife discussion due to not realizing this section is for traditional fixed blades. I don't know if I can delete this thread from my phone.
 
Since there's a thread in General, I'll close this one.
