Comparison and field strength/abuse test (pull ups) on two great knives - the new Mora Pro Robust and Hultafors GK Knife. A viewer asked me to try with the new Mora pro, what I did with the Mora High Q Robust. He simply wanted to know if the new knife would be as strong as the old one. So here I am, pulling my self up on knives again :)
This time, however, I decided to make it even more interesting and include my favourite inexpensive bushcraft/survival knife - Hultafors GK Heavy Duty Knife. I haven't done this test before using this knife and I wanted to know for myself what exactly would happen. Obviously, these tests are not very scientific, as there'll be many variables I can't control for. But just out of curiosity... How much abuse can your knife take?
My usual test such as batoning didn't surprise me at all, but carving that hard seasoned hazel did something I did not expect. It was much harder than I'd expect hazel to be and made a serious impression o both blades.
When it comes to the pull ups, no big surprise there. Although, conditions were a bit different - the knives wouldn't go in as deep as the old Mora - and that made a difference. Both knives bent slightly. I was able to straighten the up but, despite the fact that Mora was a bit shorter and probably didn't have to take as much weight as the Hultafors, I was a bit surprised to se that knife to wobble and bend that much. It felt soft. Much softer than the Mora.
That's not to say it's better or worse. You should never have to use you knife like that anyway. It's just something I wasn't aware of up until that point.

As a carpenter I use a hultafors gk daily and I can tell you it has went through some unbelievable abuse from cutting lead to being hit hard on the spine with a 24oz estwing hammer, used as a chisel, sharpened with sanders, oil stones, diamond stones, glass, and ceramic rods its has rusted and been cleaned up with sandpaper. It looks like it has been through several wars and it still preforms. the handle (very comfortable) has never cracked or the blade has never moved. It is easy to get razor sharp, and I mean razor. I have moras including the bushcraft black which I love. But as for value, at least in the uk nothing beats the hultafors gk...

MrBigstef That's true. I mention that in one of my previous videos. It is probably the best and most under-appreciated, inexpesive knife I've seen.

Same in Germany. Mora Pro Robust 15,95€ incl. taxes (local retailer) Hultafors Heavy Duty (Grobmesser GK) 7,84€ incl. taxes (local retailer) The Hultafors is just incredibly priced. Bought a Hultafors, haven´t really used it yet, but I´m sure it will hold up. My old Mora Clipper sure did fine even with heavy batoning where a much more expensive full tang knife ... Nieto I think ... failed (too deep hollow grind).

Great review, I also own and use both and have found same as you . I do like the Mora better due to better carving , handle ergonomics and lower price in my area. I don't baton very much due to abundance of materials were I go, and even if I do it's just small stuff to get to dry kindling. Less than a minute of stropping is enough to get it razor sharp again. Again both great knives for price.

When starting the first Bushcraft Association back in 2011 Hultafors gave me a GK for testing. After the initial tests it became the instructors knife. All instructors used it hard and it never failed. I still have my very first still in use. I have nothing bad to say about Mora, but for my hands I prefer the Hultafors GK. I love the big handle that's easy to clean.

The blade might be the easiest to sharpen of all my knives. I might perform a mod on the sheath. Perhaps the company will focus a little more attention on the sheath's belt loop. Great extra knife for outdoors or a bugout bag. The knife is a bonus for a tool box.

An excellent comparative review, thanks for sharing. I continue to be impressed by my Hultafors GK. It easily handles the tasks I've needed it to. I've also filed the spine and can now get excellent ferro rod sparks. I have also modified the sheath as I don't find the belt clip very user friendly or robust. At the moment I don't see any need to replace this knife with a more expensive one. Both knives are excellent value and perfect for those learning bushcraft (as I am). Atb, Mark

I have the Hultafors OK1 and OK4 and also the Mora Robust. I prefer the Hultafors knives. It seems to be they are more "indestructible". But Mora is also that good. One point is that the Hultafors models came pretty dull from the factory as with the Mora I could shave myself. Spending some time on the wetstones and they all are pretty shaving now.

Amazing test! Seems like a draw. Both are excellent for the price. The only way to know which one is tougher/stronger would be to use a hammer and pound on the spines. GK's package says it's OK to strike it with the hammer but Morakniv doesn't say if it's acceptable or not to use hammer on the Robust. Since Hultafors approves this kind of use, I would trust Hultafors GK to survive being pounded on with a hammer but I'm not sure about Morakniv''s Robust.

I just spent a couple hours shooting a video on another treatment that's quite common but very effective. I blued a 735 abd a couple of Companion HD MGs, because I promised David at HighCarbonSteelLove that I'd do it. I should have the video up in a week or less.

I just gave my Robust Pro to a friend. Good knife, but I don't care for the groove between the plastic/rubber on the handle. It's not as noticeable on the Basic versions, because they're all plastic. The other issue is the short handle of the Robust Pro. Not a big deal for 3 seasons, but not big enough for use with winter gloves. The GK handle is pretty much perfect in my opinion. The only handle design I prefer, in this price range, is the Mora 711/746 type. If they made that handle in polypro, those would be my grail knives.

l8tbraker Hi and thanks. I like his videos too. I was surprised to see he'd come to the same conclusions regarding convexing moras. Maybe I shouldn't be because it's simply practical. I actually don't have a bushcraft black :) I've thought about buying one many times and always decided, based on what others have said, it was just a slightly bigger mora robust with a coating that I can apply myself (in fact I have in some cases) and sharp spine (can do, and have done myself as well). The only big difference, or differences, I see are a potentially more ergonomic handle - it just looks like it's got to be comfortable - and a semi-dangler sheath. These two factors may well make me buy and test one some day :) I suppose my biggest problem with that knife is its price. It cost as much as some collectable puukko knives. We'll see. Thanks for watching.

@l8tbraker 9 жыл бұрын

Simon's Discoveries Thanks, Simon, for the quick answer. I've been contemplating getting the BB, mainly to avoid the whole re-do of the spine of the other Moras (I don't have a workshop, tools or the skills). But apart from that, I wonder if the BB has a different edge geometry than the Robust and HD. And the Bushcraft handles: I have a Bushcraft Forest that I like a lot.

@SimonsDiscoveries 9 жыл бұрын

l8tbraker The handle definitely looks better on the BB but that's just my deduction from watching videos and pictures. I can't comment on the geometry but it's not unusual for Mora to put very different grinds on very similar knives. I guess if you don't want to go through the whole DIY process, then it may be worth to get something that's ready to go out of the box.

@SimonsDiscoveries 8 жыл бұрын

RaphaelAtherill In that case you need something thinner and flat ground. Maybe a Condor Kephart or a mora flex knife? Or carry a spare folder for kitchen stuff. Ontario RAT 1 is perfect for such tasks. But bushman is actually not a bad choice. It can practically be a chef's knife when you nee it. Perfect for chopping and slicing bread and not too shabby when it comes to carving or batoning.

Może ja w tym surwiwalu czegoś nie rozumiem. To jakaś nowomoda, czy rodzaj zabawy? Dla mnie albo idzie się w teren wyposażony w nóż, siekierę i piłę i podpałkę albo wcale. Wtedy nóż nie musi być kosmicznie mocny. Albo jest się po jakiejś katastrofie np. morskiej czy lotniczej ale wtedy nie ma co liczyć nawet na victorinoxa. Zabawa finką i krzesiwkiem jest dla mnie nie zrozumiała bo warunkach ekstremalnych i tak tego nie będę mieć a w warunkach normalnych jest bezsensowne dla mnie takie narażanie się. Być może w tym wszystkim wiele złego narobił ten oszołom Grylls, wprowadzając modę na takie głupoty. Choć nie, przed był jeszcze John Rambo. We wszystkich testach które widziałem nożami się batonuje, struga patyki krzesze iskry z krzesiwka. ew. wiesza na nich. Wszystko to odbywa się optymalnych warunkach, często w ogródku za domem. Jeszcze nie widziałem filmu, w którym to wszystko działa ale np. podczas śnieżycy, dużego mrozu, czy ulewy. No chyba , że takie są a ja na nie trafiłem. To tyle, być może nie w temacie ale mam dziś wolne od pracy, więc co nieco skrobnąłem. A autor strony da się zauważyć, że jest cierpliwy.

+Erich Holtz W trudnych warunkach dość trudno się filmuje. Zwłaszcza samemu. A jeśli ktoś jest w naprawdę survivalowej sytuacji, to jego ostatnim zmartwieniem będzie zadowalanie wymagań KZfaqrów. Ale zdarzało mi się rozpalać ogień krzesiwem w śniegu i na mrozie. I to krzesiwem kowalskim, używając do tego wyłącznie naturalnej i nietkniętej hubki. I tak, robiłem to wtedy bardziej dla zabawy. W ten sposób najlepiej się czegoś nauczyć.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qcWCmruezJ6whqs.htmlm40s Narzekanie, że większość treningów/demonstracji odbywa się w scenerii treningowej, to trochę jak zarzucanie żołnierzom, że trenują na poligonie a nie na prawdziwej wojnie, a do tego na pokazach nie strzelają do siebie ostra amunicją jak prawdziwi twardziele.

+Simon's Discoveries Z drugiej strony to mówi się: "że najlepszym treningiem dla kolarza jest wyścig" albo co to za sztuka walki z której nie urządza się sparingów/zawodów" (podobno w aikido tak jest). Choć faktycznie w warunkach dużej wilgotności tak jak na tym filmiku trudno byłoby rozpalić nawet normalnym krzesiwkiem. Mnie zastanawia tylko sama idea zabawy w survival - chodzi np. o zabawę krzesiwkiem. Po co to komu jeśli istnieją o wiele bardziej skuteczne metody. Przyznaję, ja sam też często się tak bawię ale nigdy nie wybrałbym się w teren bez porządnego źródła ognia. Bywa, że szybkie rozpalenie ognia to sprawa zdrowia/życia. Przemoczone/przepocone ubranie, zgrabiałe/odmrożone dłonie. Wtedy zabawa w rozpalanie ognia może okazać się niewystarczająca. Zastanawiam się czy to odpowiednie miejsce na tego typu dyskusje.

@SimonsDiscoveries 8 жыл бұрын

Erich Holtz Krzesiwo współczesne powstało dlatego, że jest najbardziej niezawodnym źródłem ognia. Jego używanie wymaga trochę wprawy ale kiedy się to już opanuje, to takie coś jest w zasadzie niezniszczalne. Ok, koroduje stosunkowo szybko w wodzie ale i tak jest praktycznie wodoodporne. Nie ma tam części ruchomych, więc nic się nie złamie, nie wypadnie ani nie rozszczelni. Działa w największym mrozie, na wietrze i przy największej wilgotności. Starcza na dłużej niż kilka zapalniczek czy paczek zapałek. Oczywiście jeśli wiemy jak z niego korzystać i nie jest jakieś miniaturowe. Do tego, krzesiwa można również użyć do sygnalizowania w nocy. Zapalniczka się bardzo przydaje ale z doświadczenia wiem, że nie można im zbytnio ufać.

@erichholtz6682 8 жыл бұрын

+Simon's Discoveries Zdecydowanie krzesiwo jest trwałe. Ja jednak nie jestem do końca przekonany do jego skuteczności. Pomimo wielokrotnego używania. Chodzi o jego dość skomplikowany proces użycia. Zapalniczka czy zapałki sztormowe (przez niektórych zwane szturmowymi) do tego np. rozpałka do grilla,w moim przypadku zawsze stawały się niezawodne. Podam przykład: kiedyś zapomniałem wsadzić buty do śpiwora a było ok - 30*C gdyby nie szybkie rozpalenie ognia mogło się to dla mnie skończyć odmrożeniami. To moje zdanie. Oczywiście człowiek uczy się całe życie. To tyle. Nie chcę dalej zapełniać forum o nożach.

I o co chodzi z tym batonowaniem?! Na większości filmików "survivalovcy" batonują patyki, które wcześniej zostały równiutko przycięte piłą! Co to daje!? Kto tak robi? Ktoś kto ma piłę! W terenie takie "batonowanie" wymaga jakiejś twardej podkładki albo przynajmniej pniaka. Ja nigdy nie batonuję tylko strugam patyki do rozpałki. Piłą tylko przycinam grubsze gałęzie do ogniska. Bez piły jak tu batonować. I nie mówcie, że można przycinać waląc innym patykiem w klingę. p.s. Przez 25 tak uprawiania turystyki kwalifikowanej (dziś zwanej survivalem) niegdy niczego nie batonowałem!

@SimonsDiscoveries 8 жыл бұрын

+Erich Holtz Turystyka, to jednak nie survival :) Nie widzę sprzeczności między batonowanie i używaniem piły. Nie widzę też problemu w noszeniu składanej piłki w plecaku. Sam często tak robię. Mam też całkiem sprawną piłę w scyzoryku Vicrorinox'a. Można się bez nie obejść batonując drewno w poprzek, tnąc je w ten sposób na mniejsze kawałki ale tu nie widziałem potrzeby utrudniania sobie życia bo nie jest to filmik o batonowaniu w trudnych warunkach. Strugać można patyki jeśli tak naprawdę nie jest zbyt mokro. W warunkach naprawdę wysokiej wilgotności (ulewa, czy wielodniowy deszcz) patyk, który jest sens strugać będzie zbyć cienki, żeby tam było jeszcze cokolwiek suchego na rozpałkę. W takiej sytuacji, klocek musi mieć minimum 10 cm średnicy, żeby drewno w środku było suche. Struganie czegoś takiego potrwało by pewnie do przybycia ekipy ratunkowej ;)

The only thing an abuse test like this proves is that you're willing to abuse knives. Knives are for cutting with. They are not for beating with a club. Be a real woodsman and use a hatchet, or a well-designed tomahawk, and a saw for processing wood. For bigger jobs, use an axe or a bucksaw. Or one of the new Silky Katanas. But there is never, ever an excuse to beat your best friend with a club. All it proves is that you watch all the wrong KZfaq channels, and don't read history at all.

Get away from KZfaq incest, read some actual books, learn what two thousand years of knife history has taught us, and then go out and buy a blasted hatchet, or a tomahawk with a hammer poll, and a saw. If you want to baton, do it right, and use a hatchet or a tomahawk.
