I really don't know anything about these knives.Since you haven't provided any stats,especially concerning the type of steel,I will choose based upon appearance.

I like the F1.

Same as toolguy, I don't know much about knives, but I like the look of the Helle - natural materials and a comfy looking handle.

Assuming you own all three Grathr, what's your idea with the poll?

I'll take the Mora thanks.

I too, know nothing about these knives, but ive always been partial to wood over plastic for handles/scales. Id have to go with the Helle, since it looks so pretty.

I would personally go with the Helle strictly because I have wanted one for a while now. I love Mora, but I cannot ever justify paying $100+ for a Mora. I'm good with my $13 Mora's.

Take the expensive one.

Based on looks I'd take the F1 does it have a flat grind ?

Yes it has a flat grind ending in a convex edge.

I'd take the Mora. Don't like the handle on the Fallkniven and had a Helle and did not get along with it at all.

+100!!!!

F1 for me please, I'm looking into buying one

Steinar · **Reply #14 on:** June 17, 2016, 09:31:13 PM

The F1 has the least tough steel. I love wood, but synthetics are more functional. So Garberg it is.

Thought I'd bump the thread and compare US prices:

Name Price Notes

Garberg- leather $87.95 Knife Center Full Tang
Garberg- plastic $79.95 Knife Center Full Tang
Helle Temagami stainless $144.99 Amazon Semi Full Tang
Helle Temagami carbon $179.00 Amazon Semi Full Tang
Fallkiniven F1 leath/zytel $125.00 Amazon Full Tang
Fallkiniven F1 zytel $142.95 KnifeCenter Full Tang

Knife Center is kinda high on stuff so I'm hoping that Garberg street prices, after the initial spike, will eventually be even lower.
