Otima faca.

I don't know much about knives really, and am no outdoor expert either but I do enjoy backpacking and day hiking. Last year I decided I wanted to try a lightweight fixed blade rather than the typical swiss army knife I'd been taking. I got a carbon steel Frost Mora Clipper. I lost it the other day on a backpacking trip, got home and it had fallen out of the sheath which was attached to my shoulder strap. I'm going to go try to find it as I have a hunch that it fell out when I took my backpack off and flung it over a huge fallen log that I was going to climb over. Wasn't far from trailhead so maybe I'll get lucky. Meanwhile though I ordered and have now received this one, which is labeled as a Morakinov. My Frost Mora was really nice, very sharp and useful for making makeshift tarp pegs etc. This new one is basically the same things but there is one huge improvement. My Frost Mora was loose in its sheath. If you held the sheath upside down and shook it the knife would fall out. Having a knife this sharp not be securely contained in its sheath seems like a bad idea. I put a loop of paracord around the sheath and also used a piece of inner tube to give the sheath a tighter grip on the knife, and it seemed secure but obviously was not secure enough, as evidenced by the fact that it fell out somewhere along the way. This Morakniv is much more secure in its sheath. I can't get it to fall out of the sheath by shaking. I think the handle on the knife is slightly bigger, as I can put it in my Frost Mora's sheath and it is more secure there than the old knife as well. I will still use the paracord backup loop but I doubt this knife will fall out of its sheath in the manner my old one did. I love these knives because they are cheap enough that I am not worried about ruining them. They are the most useful outdoor knives I've had. I'd rather have one sharp knife than a dull swiss army knife even if the army knife has other little doodads on them. Thumbs up! EDITED to ADD: I was able to go back and find my original Frost Clipper knife laying in the woods right where I had suspected. Comparing the Frost knife to this Morakniv one there is little difference. They both weigh 77 grams. They look identical in shape as far as I can tell. The handle of the Frost has a small checkerboard pattern which the Morakniv does not, which makes it feel slightly different in the hand. The main difference to me is the sheath. It is a very slight difference but welcome as the sheath on the Morakniv holds the knife (either knife) much more tightly than the sheath that came with the Frost Clipper. It is slightly heavier, just a few grams more. Also the spine on my Frost was rougher which made it easier to make a spark with the firesteel. The Morakniv has some rough spots on the spine but not as many as on the Frost. I like both knives. I love the Morakniv sheath improvement as I was always a little unhappy with my Frost's.

Es la versión antigua del military companion, el lomo es un poco más fino que los actuales. Lo cual personalmente considero una ventaja porque tiene mejor corte. Es de acero al carbono, lo cual es otra ventaja aun mayor porque se afila de miedo con cualquier cosa que tengas a mano. Y es enterizo, así que aguanta muchísimo trote. La funda es muy simplona, pero cumple con su función y no retiene humedad, lo que ayuda a evitar que la hoja se ennegrezca. Como apunte decir que es el tercer cuchillo mora que tengo, siendo los dos anteriores variaciones de este modelo en acero inoxidable. Siempre me han funcionado mejor que otros cuchillos con materiales más elaborados y más caros. Porque su secreto radica en que al ser tan convencional, o clásico que dirían algunos, es fácil tenerlo siempre a punto y utilizarlo en cualquier situación.

Finalmente mi sono deciso PRESO coltello che non può mancare nell'attrezzatura di chiunque ama immergersi nella natura escursionisti pescatori cacciatori .......mangiatori (affetta i salamini che è un piacere ) articolo veramente valido lama affilatissima impugnatura comodissima e saldissima anche se bagnata . Particolarmente utile per lavorare ed intagliare il legno creare trucioli per fuoco ecc...ovviamente non per lavori troppo pesanti anche se con un poco di abilità ,pratica e buon senso potrebbe offrire più di quanto ci si possa aspettare .La lama oltre ad essere molto tagliente è molto ben rifinita e l'aspetto finale ci offre un coltello bello pratico ( anche per la pulizia P.S. ovviamente con i limiti della lama al carbonio ) e funzionale ( che abbinato al suo fodero molto resistente e ben studiato sia per il serraggio in sicurezza del coltello che per la possibilità di trasportarlo e agganciarlo in diversi modi ) ad un prezzo veramente ottimo . COLTELLO OUTDOOR CONSIGLIATISSIMO P.S dopo un intensivo utilizzo sul campo vorrei esprimere un mio giudizio sulle caratteristiche della lama senza nulla togliere a quanto scritto nella recensione rimane comunque un ottimo coltello tuttofare ma .... le caratteristiche della lama al carbonio qualche problemino lo creano sopratutto a chi ama avere il coltello sempre in ordine perfetto l'ossidazione o meglio gli aloni che si creano sono molto evidenti ed effettivamente tagliando alimenti troppo acidi oltre a macchiarsi rilascia un odore particolare ( ferroso) quindi io personalmente ne ho comprato un altro con lama inox da utilizzare sopratutto per gli alimenti ( ma va bene anche per tutto il resto) questo al carbonio lo tengo esclusivamente come coltello da lavoro (assolutamente valido) e per ovviare al problema dell'ossidazione dopo ogni uscita ed utilizzo lo pulisco con una pasta lucidante e lo lubrifico con qualche goccia di olio per armi. RIMANE COMUNQUE UN OTTIMO ARTICOLO

great knife, razor sharp, great colour
