Simple question. Of all the people in the Wilderness & Survival sub-forum, who does not own a Mora?
If you do, please share your photos.

Here are mine...

I don't anymore, Let a friend use my Mora for a camping trip and never saw it again and never felt like getting another.
 
Used to own one. Liked it quite a lot, although it didn't hold an edge as long as I would've wanted. Lost it a while ago on a hike.

Pics of my lost 511 :(

Ive had a few over the years, theyve all been given away. they work well enough, for the price they are good.
 
I've never owned one. They are interesting and look like they would be good users. They have a good "bang for the buck" reputation. But I've concentrated my collecting and using to the domestic brands that are my personal favorites.
 
Still have mine, never had an issue, batoned, fuzzsticks it did it all. Still use it from time to time, lives in the jeep with my bob.

Had 5-6 of those red handled deals. I still find one here and there in storage tubs. Cut well, rusted easily. They mean nothing to me.
 
Never owned one, always meant to but have always found other knives I like better. My favorite fixed blade is a Loveless style drop point by Gene Langley. Does anything I need a fized blade to do.

Here's the one on hand, but I have many more. The 840 is solidly my favorite. It just so happens to be the cheapest typically, though the handle is super comfy and I like the high carbon steel. There's a reason they get thrown around so much-they are incredible knives, irregardless of the 8 dollar pricetag.
 
I have two both carbon steel. One red wood handle Frost and a black and red plastic handle Frost. Both rock, some of the sharpest best steel I own. So inexpensive you need a few!
JN what the hell is that huge Mora?
 
BillyM, I do believe that is their Model 223. There is also a Model 333 'machete' or insulation knife, which is available in one place that I know of-it's out of Maylasia.
 
I own 3, but like others have said, they don't hold an edge long enough for me. I use them to loan out or use around the yard/garden. I also let my Wife use one because if she ruins or loses it, no biggy.

Point very well taken... They are to "throw away" to collect, just like a disposable flashlight, oh, wait, the batteries are dead, buy a new one!!!

Thank you!:D

There was a huge craze on for them a few years ago, but honestly, I know their cheap, and yeah, they work ok. But honestly, its the last knife I think about, heck I forgot about mine until this thread came up...
 
I have a whole mess of them
But no photos

The laminated carbon carving knives hold an amazing edge, and they have pushed off using slippies for whittling and carving
Because of the scandi grind bring them back to very sharp is very easy

The smaller carbon 3" and 3 1/2" wooden handled have also pushed off using a large slippy, they are easier to use.

I have a 4" Triflex, that holds a wicked edge.
 
I've never owned one. They look like very 'useful' and at a great price point, but nope, i've never owned one - nor handled one for that matter...
