The new Mora Garberg

[JV3]

Could you elaborate on this more?

the 510 is lightweight, fits my hand perfectly and no hot spots. my biggest gripe is the garberg's groove around the checkering - it sits directly on the base of my middle and ring fingers (think where calluses usually form in the palm and it's right there).

also, everything about it feels way overbuilt for such a short knife. in this size range i like it to be light enough to hang around my neck since i usually have a tomahawk or some kind of chopper with me. i'm not against overbuilt knives though...when i bring one i go big

JV3 - thanks for that explanation. The groove causing a hotspot would definitely turn me off too. Really hoping I can find one at BLADE to get an idea of how it feels in-hand.
