This isn't anything special like some of the knives posted here, but it gets the job done! I just got it and I'm really loving the thing!

That sunnie was a solid 9.5" and thick! The mora made quick work of him and a few of his friends
Have you been to the fishing thread?!?!

Lots of fans of Mora knives here Clear Ice. :tu:  Apparently there are others that like fishing too.;)

Alright, I will head in that direction! Thanks guys!

Looks like I will have to go fishing and use the Mora again, because nobody wants recycled pics, right?

A full size Carl Andersson with the Carl Andersson Scout knife (scout embossed on sheath).


And them again with a Broderna Jonsson on top and a tiny KJ Eriksson on bottom


And my newest Mora got a new sheath and a new edge...it was as dull as a butter knife!



Used a Smiths Coarse Diamond bench stone to reprofile it.

Got out to use my mora and CRKT minimalist for the first time today. Just went for a walk and threw up a tarp for the chance of rain and had a cup of hot tea. Not a bad way to spend a morning!

Here's a couple pics:




I didn't end up using the CRKT or huntsman much, but the Mora was fantastic! Here's a full lineup:

Thanks guys. I ended up being about 20ft over the edge of our property line, and my neighbor happened to be walking his lines... Lucky for me he's a nice guy, because I was accidentally trespassing... Oops!

I only have a couple of fixed blades but I love them all.  Need to work on my photo skills though.  From smallest to largest.

ESEE Izula



Bradford Guardian3



Smith & Sons Cherokee




ESEE "Molon Labe" group buy 6




Also have an ESEE RC-3 floating around somewhere.  My crappy photo taking really doesn't do the forced patina on the Cherokee justice.

How do you like the Cherokee?

It's a great blade and they are really nice folks. Talked to them for a bit at Blade last year. I haven't used it like i should and honestly should unload it but I just love the forced patina they out on the D2 and can't bring myself to let it go.

Nice pics! I've been drooling over a Bradford for a while... Is it worth the money? It sure looks nice!

Nice pics! I've been drooling over a Bradford for a while... Is it worth the money? It sure looks nice!

I think so. A couple notes though. It's smaller than it seems, at least I think so. Basically what I mean is that the normal grip is your finger in the choil.  There isn't really enough grip length to back off where your finger isn't in the choil and still hang on to it. Fine for me though as I like that grip and feel like I have lots of control.

The edges on the g10 are a little sharp and and could perhaps be radiused a little more. The texture is aggressive and gives a good grip. It comes with a leather sheath that is nice but I wished I had gotten the kydex and still might. Finally while I think the saber grind ones look nice I'm more of a full flat grind guy and glad I got in on one of those limited runs. Mine and most are M390 but I think they also did a run in 3v but not sure the availability of those. The 390 seems to make more since to me in a blade this size though. When I think of 3v I think more about bigger choppers.

Awesome, that's some good feedback. Thanks!
