Can someone please tell me how far the tang goes back in the handle of the mora 911 knife? I thought it went back more than half way ,becasue the tang on the 711 does and they are very similar knifes in the way thier handles are constructed. Please only the most correct information only.

Maybe a person on blade forums that goes by the name Mora blades can help me.
 
I just checked mine with a strong magnet, and it was more than 3/4 down the handle.
 
Somewhere out there is a set of photos someone took, taking apart a Mora... IIRC, sodak is right, and the tang goes about 3/4 of the handle length.
 
Here is a pic I came across on the www. Wish I had the info from who did it so I can give credit, but, alas, tis lost.
This is a Frost's Triflex, BTW.

This might be of some help though it doesn't show the 911. I copied it off of here and I'm not sure who took it originally.

That is an incredible pic, BlackHills!
Thanks much for sharing it!

I'm gonna need to look at Eriksson's knives.
Those should make the full length tang clan happy about Scandi-knives.:D
I know it's piqued my interest and I'm really pleased with my Moras.
But, one can never have enough Scandi type knives.;)
