Title: Mora Badge...do I earn it?
Post by: Shuya on January 07, 2019, 08:02:36 PM
Dudes, this forum is awesome for collecting these small pins.  :woohoo:

Just saw that there is a Mora Badge, too.
And I guess I got the pics needed for that.

Last summer I was on a one month vacation with the Mrs. and my almost one year one daughter in the Bretagne, france.
Of course I got my fishing gear with my and fished at the bay near Brest. Caught a nice sea bass, which I fileted and grilled the next day, all done with a mora.

Lots of fish to eat for two folks, but we made it.  :salute:

(Oh and I was wearing my beloved Tilley hut!)

Great job on the badge!

I cleaned some fish with my Bahco 2444 (a rebranded Clipper), primarily because for knives suitable for cleaning fish, we had like 3 between us, two of them dull (and the Clipper only having a halfway decent edge) and one tiny  sharpening stone!  I have bought a few purpose-built fillet knives, but haven't fished since that trip. Go figure. Thinking about using a Rada Tomato Slicer instead. Scalloped edge, and semi-flexible, I actually use that one in the kitchen as my go-to knife.

Thanks folks!

On trips to countries with stupid knife laws (sorry, france) where you are not allowed to carry most knifes (france: only non locking stuff is OK, for fixed blades you need legal reason and cant carry it on person  :facepalm: ) I dont want to risk my pricy knifes to be taken away.
Plus salsmurfer is nothing I want to have on my non-stainless-knifes.
So a Mora rides with me, and for reasons I take the most shiny and bright knife I found, so you have something when argueing with the authorities (the sheath is in that orange color  :tu: )

I dont care if this knife is damaged, lost, taken away (oh well, if its the first day I will miss it the rest of my holidays) or rusty.

Maybe I will buy some special fishing/filet knife from mora, they got a 1,3mm blade full flat. Would be a better kitchen knife than that Mora to be honest.  :twak:
