@@TheTerry500 - Scouse i thought but a Stoke accent , mix of brummie/scouse :)

@@ccmogs5757 thats exactly what i thought... mild scouse with a trace of brum. Maybe saint helens or southport. Im in lancs myself and i definitely detect a strong lancs with scouse thing going on. But Stoke you say. Im surprised how northern/lancs they sound. But you can definitely hear the Midlands accent... but nowhere near as strong as brum or wolves etc.

Perhaps stoke is the accent right between brum and northern (lancs/yorks i mean).

Hi Paul, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. The kind words are very much appreciated my friend. Yeah they do sharpen to a nice fine edge. Good egde retention too. Then with a quck strop with some Tormek paste, the edge is super sharp. Excellent knife for the money. Thanks again, all the best, Mark.

Thanks Lee :) I tend to use Tormek or AutoSol when it comes to stropping the edge and that puts the nice mirrored finish on the edge. Have a great day, all the best, Mark :)

Hi Rich, I hope you are keeping well :) Great news, I'm sure you will be very happy with it. They are an awesome knife. If you ever need a kydex sheath for it, let me know. I have one here that you can have. It is quite a basic one in OD green, but if you want a change you can have it :) Thanks as always Rich :) Have a great day, all the best, Mark.

Mark Bailey That’s very kind of you, Mark. Thank you! I’ll give the Mora sheath a try and let you know!

You very welcome Rich. The sheaths that come with them are great. But its always here if you want it :)

Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment Brett. Have a great day, all the best, Mark.

Honestly it doesn't look very used at all, yes it has been sharpened, but I've had mine a couple of years and it is actually beautifully worn. This one looks just sharpened and used a handful of times. You must be very easy on your blades

Hi Airik1111, many thanks for watching. Your quite right, the HQ Robust is an awesome knife for the money. I have a couple knocking around at work that we use frequently and have stood the test of time, certainly for the amount of abuse and the environment that they are in. You did well to get the Garberg for $56.00, they are anything from £80-110 here in the UK. Not sure what that would work out in dollars, but it is hell of a lot more than $56. Thanks again and have a great day, Mark.

Hi Michael, I hope you are keeping well mate :) A couple of nice knives you own there. I like the Gary Mills Timber Wolf. He makes some awesome knives and they are a decent price too. I can't fault Mora knives for their cost and workability. My bushcraft black is going strong another year later. Not bad for £40. I think I will loose it, before it ever stops working lol. Thanks as always for watching and taking the time to comment Michael....... have a great week mate, all the best, Mark :)

Thanks Mark, you have a champion week too. My mora was £9 lol got more chips 🍟 than McD’s

LOL. I like that, more chips than McDs :) Cheers Michael, all the best mate.

You won't be dissapointed if you decide to buy one. I tend to carry mine on most trips out and gets used quite regulary. The grind on them lends its self to being sharpened. There are no fany angles that are required to get the edge razor sharp. If you struggle to sharpen a knife on a stone then try stropping. It is only if the edge has become damaged in anyway e.g. chipped will I use a stone. Most of the time I just strop my knives. Its easy to do and its cheap. You will be amazed how well it can work, even on a dull edge. Plus again, you don't have to worry so much about the angle, as the leather gives and covers the entire edge. i have been toying with doing a sharpening video, so maybe it will be the cards soon. Thanks again, all the best Mark.

Mark Bailey Thank you for your time.

Your welcome... have a great weekend, Mark.

Hi got faith..... many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. If I remember right I think I sharpened mine when it was first new. I know a lot of people who use the robust for the price point. And a great knife it is too. Put the word bushcraft on anything nowadays and the companies will hike up the price knowing people will pay. It is still an awesome knife in my opinion. If it lasts me another 5 years, then it was worth paying the price. Thanks again... have a great day, all the best, Mark.

Hi ApocGuy, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Yeah, Mora make an awesome knife for the money. Your right about the sheath. I had a kydex sheath made for mine which turned out well (better retention). Thanks again.... have a great day, all the best Mark.

Hi Arkamas Ross, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment :) The steel that Mora use on the bushcraft black is a nice steel to sharpen and it stays sharp for a good while :) Have a great day, all the best, Mark :)

Hi Bill, many thanks for watching. I have never really had a problem when it comes to batoning Mora knives. I think they are stronger than most people give them credit for. Certainly the bushcraft black that is a slightly thicker steel than some of the other knives in the Mora range. Thanks again for watching and all the best, Mark.

Hi Re nato, many thanks for watching the video and for the comment. Your right, I have never had any issues with any Mora knife or worried about it not being full tang. They have always served me well. I have never tried Hultafors knives, but I love there hatchets and axes. I recently purchased the Classic hunter axe and been very impressed with it. Have a great weekend Re nanto, all the best Mark.

I might look into the Hultafors knives as a replacement for some of my other work knives. I've looked at them quite frequently in the past, but have always gone for Mora. Maybe it's time for a change and try out the Hultafors. Thanks again Renato, all the best Mark.

Job done, I have just ordered one to see what it is like. I like the idea of the finger guard, especially as I will be using it around water. Hopefully it will stop any slips down the blade whilst my hands are wet. Thanks for the advice and for putting me onto them. If I don't like the handle, like you say there is always the Mora to fall back on. All the best, Mark.

Hi Wol. I hope you are having a nice week mate :) LOL, I know what you mean about it looking like inner tube. Close up though, it's a nice looking knife and the handle itself is one of the most comfortable I use. They are certainly worth the money if you are looking at them. I've had mine for a while, but I see that you can still get them for around £35.00. Thanks again Wol, it's always great to hear from you :) Have a great week, all the best, Mark :)

Hi Neeman, Many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. All the best Mark.

Hi Ant, I hope you are keeping well mate :) Yeah Mora make some excellent knives. Plus they are relatively inexpensive compared to others. For my stropping compounds Ant I either go to halfords and buy a tube of Auto-sol, which is a metal polishing paste or I use Tormek, again which is pretty much the same as the Auto-sol. I think it is about £6.00 a tube, and it lasts for ages. I hope this helps mate, have a great day, all the best, Mark :)

Mark Bailey yes that’s great mate I’ll pick up a tube when I’m out and about, thanks Mark. Yeah very cheap, I’ve purchased the 840 MG Bushcraft model, I’m looking forward to see what it can do 👍

@@AntSurviveTheNight Nice one, The 840 MG is a great knife. I lost my last Mora companion in a lake lol. Don't lend the work experience lad your knife lol. I had it for years as well. Yeah, the beauty of using the tubes of paste I find, is when it dries on the strop it doesn't tend to clog the leather as much compared to the blocks of compound. Every now and again I will use the back of a knife of steel rule to scrape the strop to get it back to the leather. 😀🔪🔪.

Mark Bailey oh no! I’d be gutted too, I know they are pretty cheap but when you find a good knife you really don’t want to loose it especially like that 😫. Good tip again in regards to the care of the strop 👍

Hi Adrian, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment :) Have a great day, all the best, Mark.

Hi Woodswalker 1965, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. All the best, Mark. :)

I just wish the garberg had the same rubber over mold but apparently Mora says they wanted to make the knife and durable as possible so that's why they didn't.

@@dirtysouthbushcraftandmma9784 This is what I've read too often why people prefer those harder materials, like micarta G10, durability. But there's a reason working tools like hammers and screwdrivers you name it, have rubber on the handles. Grip , comfort, less cold in hand etc. And those rubber handles will last many years. What are they thinking. It has to survive 2000 years so they can put it in a museum afterwards? Those rubbery handles as seen in the Mora Companion and Mora Bushcraft are the most grippy and most comfortable. No cold tang against the hand either ( a pointed 👉 to those always thinking only full width tang are good).

@@Ve-suvius Actually, time proved that the rubber handle on the Bushcraft Black, is way more robust and lasts way longer, than the plastic handle on the Garberg. Bushcraft Black, is generally a way better knife overall, than the Garberg is.

@@greekveteran2715 Hey Greek brother, tell me more about your findings if you will. Did you experience this yourself, or saw this with other people's Mora's. I really like the rubber grip myself. And if knives don't have this I tend to wrap them, either with inner bicycle tube or tennis racket overgrip. I love the tackiness on knife grips. On most tools actually.

@@greekveteran2715 What happens to the Garberg handle that it doesn't last as long as the Bushcraft Black.. Also on the robustness...

Good choice, they are a decent knife. Mine came with the standard black sheath, but I changed it over to a kydex. Better fit. Cheers for watching, Mark.

Hi Paule 4X thanks for watching and for the comment. Man it sure looks like you like your Mora's. Regarding the vintage Mora that you think might be a military issue, I would take a photo of it and email it to Mora and see what info they can give you on it. I have recently purchased an Eldris for work and I noticed that it has a secondary grind on that, similar to your 2000. Its an interesting looking blade and was wondering what the best way to sharpen it is. The Eldris comes with a micro bevel, so I will most probably run with that for the time been. I Like the sound of your cutting combo, I haven't tried the one of the Mora hatchets yet, but I have heard only good stuff. Thanks again for watching and have a great weekend, all the best, Mark.

Yeah, It has three crowns and the A is latge. Yeah, Its in excellent condition, and its thicker also and like Mora it holds a decent edge, Its a larger knife and a thicker blade. I did see a video on KZfaq, but mine is in alot better condition, and I keep it like that. But yeah, I was going to take my Rodent 6 out which I had modified, I had the top guard taken off and thinner down, so the saber is a little higher, so I can get a sceeery sharp edge on it, Its a great steel too a 52100 done Busse Technology way. I like teaming it with my Mora 510 as my neck knife. Because I just got a LT Weight GSN, its half the price as the Ray Mears Woodlore, But I'M HOPING, its every bit as good. Oh, I also got it in 3V, a real lovely piece of kit. So I'll take it through its pages. I did have the 2Hawks Warbeast Tomahawk and the Wicked Tough Saw Combo. plus I just got a Snody SnaleCharmer to use as my neck knife with this still very lite trio. Infact I joke and say my GSN is my Po'Mans R M Woodlore. But all joking aside, I know its made every bit as well. Yeah, for the $$$ Its a Keeper.,,.

Oh, Thanx You for the suggestion.,,.

I love my LT Wright GNS, I have to Genesis too which again is an awesome knife. I grew up watching Ray Mears back in the late 80's and have always wanted one of the A. Wood knives that Ray has with the bone handle, but didn't want the 10 year wait. But I only recently found out that Stephen Wade Cox who made the Ray Mears knifes had died, so there are no more available. I'm sure you will be just as happy with the GNS, but another knife maker worth checking out is Ben Orford here in the UK.

Yes, Ben is a upstabding friend, But dealing with knife makers across the pond, It automatically incluseds a money transfer cost, I only deal with cash or money order, You see, I was ripped off, well almost ripped off dealing with ebay and paypal and they didn't stay by me, they acted as if they didn't care, and I use to buy at least $1,000.00 a month of vintage knives. So they lost a good customer. I simply don't deal with them anymore. Yeah, I have a 2Hawks Double Bit Hatchet and the Warbeast Tomahawk. I teamed my Double Bit Hatchet with my Rodent 5, one of my Fav's. I also have (2) INFIMandus, which is the Ratmandu in the INFI Steel, I also have one in the SR101 a very good carbon blade steel, Its a 52100 done with Busse Technology. Great stuff. But I wanted something along the line of a Ray Mears Woidlore. I wanted to modify my GSN, But when I talked to Ekaine, She told me, Oh, by the way, a lovely lady. She said, that their not taking custom orders, She said, Infact they only do that once a year. And their still working on last years custom orderes, that night be finished by July. Hikes, I said, So I looked around, and found one in KnifeShippedFree, and Boil, Blap, Blame, I found a 3V Saber Grind with a Coyote Black Mountain G-10 Handle, So I bought it. Yeah it comes with a Square Bottom Leather Dangler Sheath which is a big plus. Like I meantiined, I already had the Tomahawk aching to be teamed up with a knife, I also have a Wicked Tough Saw that I will use with this Trio. But I also just bought my second Ka-Bar Kit. The first one was the BK-20 Bundok Bowie that sold with the BK-4 and the BK-5, This time I bought the BK-29 Moses Bowie. Both are 1/4" thick 1095 CroVan and around 11" blades. But the BK-29 Moses Bowie is a 1/4" shorter than the BK-20 Bundok Bowie. But the Moses Bowie comes with the BK-5, so I now have (3) BK-5's. I really like the BK-5, its a 8" lite knife, but I can do everything I can do with my BK-7. Infact, I teamed ine with my BK-15 a natural match. Yeah a few years ago, I bought a Blind Horse Bushcrafter. I had it made with a flat, polished canvas micarta handle, I also had some belly taken off, It came out a little piintier and that's excactly what I wanted, Infact, it l@@ks like a high priced Kephart. It's my Lil Jewel. Yeah, its in O1 and Scandi. So, you see, I wanted a poibtier tip and similar to the R M. I actually had a hard time deciding which one to get. I was researching between the GNS, the Gary Wines Knife and the Genesis. Yeah It is unless you buy all three, The decision was sort of hard, But I was able to buy it in 3V and that nice Coyote Black Mountain G-10 Handle which called out my name. Now, I think I got myself a good one and still a Lite Trio Carry. And Perfect Timing Too. For this up-coming mild weather start. Yeah, It will give me plenty of time to get use to this Trio Carry. So I will have enough practice time for my Solo Scouting Trips.,,.

Hi Dr Dodd, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment :) I have moved around over the years, but still can't shake the Stoke accent lol. Have a great week mate, all the best, Mark :)

Hi Vincent, I hope you are keeping well mate. I tend to use a couple of water stones to sharpen the blade, then I use a strop and Tormek or autosol paste to finish the edge off. 👍

@@markbailey2981 thanks! Any recommended water stones to use?

@@vinc8ntl8r I Vincent, I tend to use the Ice Bear Japanese water stones. For my main sharpening I tend to buy a solid stone and for the higher grits I buy a duel stone to save money. They start from about £30 each, and to help with the life of them I also use a flattening stone to flatten the stones back once it has been used.

Hi Lanunochit, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment 😀. At the time when I bought mine the garberg wasn't available to buy. But I have tried them since they have become popular and they are a great knife. It would depend purely on how much money I had to spend and the kind of work I was going to do with it. I like how the garberg has a full tang and also available in Carbon steel. But for the money you cant beat the bushcraft black. I think I paid about £38 for it and it has been a solid knife. Even though it has a rat tail tang I have still battened down wood for the fire or when carving and I never worry about it breaking. The steel is also a decent steel. It sharpens very easily and the edge lasts a good while. The handle is one of the most comfortable that I have used on a knife and due to the materials that it is made from it is still very grippy when wet. I did upgrade the sheath to a kydex sheath. But even the sheath that comes with them are decent. Like I said, the bushcraft black is a great knife for under £40. If you are on a budget and want a solid knife that is good for most jobs around camp then you wont go far wrong. But if you have a bit of extra money and want a full tang knife with a decent sheath, then the garberb is a quality knife. I don't know much about the handle, as I have little experience in using the knife. I think the price has also come down now, so that always makes things a bit easier. I f you could, I would try and visit somewhere that sells them and look at the side by side. I'm sure you wouldn't be disappointed with either.......... I hope this helps, all the best, Mark :)

@@markbailey2981 Thank you sir.

Hi T Sizzle, many thanks for watching the video and taking the time to comment. Your quite right, the coating is there to protect the steel. But after use, the coating starts to wear in certain areas along the bevel, so I have always given the knife a coat of oil and treated it like any other carbon blade after use. I tend to sharpen them flat on a stone or strop and not put a micro bevel back on, hence the full length of the bevel now being silver. Nearly all of the older Bushcraft black's that I have seen and used pretty much end up this way. Nothing a drop of oil can't protect. Thanks again, have a great day, all the best, Mark.

I would like to see the Bushcraft Black without the coating. There are cases where the blade actually rusts underneath the coating. Might as well not have it at all. And it will be a better slicer without the coating also.

Hello! I'm still new to the business. What exactly is a micro bevel?

Hi Rick, many thanks for watching and for the kind words. Have a great weekend, all the best, Mark.

Hi SMBT Productions, Many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Yeah for the money, they are great knife. I'm not too sure what you mean by blade bite. But if you do get one, I'm sure you won't be disappointed. Good quality steel, very comfortable in the hand, lightweight, and a great cutter. I upgraded the sheath after a couple of years. Nothing really wrong with the standard one, but I was gifted a kydex sheath for it. Thanks again for watching SMBT Productions, all the best Mark.

Mark Bailey thank you for commenting back not many people do that by blade bite i meant chipping on the blade

Hi SMBT Productions, no problem my friend. About the blade chipping, I haven't had any issues or problems and it has been well used over the years. For the money, they have used a decent steel which holds its edge well. Thanks again, SMBT, all the best, Mark.

Mark Bailey yet again thank you for informing me im definitely buying it i just was looking for a good knife for bushcraft and i fount it thanks again-SMBT Productions

Hi Allen, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. I have used my bushcraft black for food prep many times and the coating has never been an problem. Even after years of use, the coating on the blade has hardly worn off, so I wouldn't expect it to come off when using it for cutting food. I would be more concerned by the type of oil that I sometimes use on the edge. Thanks again Allen, have a great day, all the best, Mark.

I think I'll call Mora just to make sure do you know if they have a 1-800 number?Thanks BudMy friend used a k-bar USMC for food processing which has a black coating it was his go to Knife for that purpose in the woods, and he had become sick. After a blood test they found a contaminent in his blood Stream. So that's why I'm asking. Like Wise have a great day. Allen

Sorry to hear about your friend Allen. Best be safe than sorry my friend. I'm not sure of the phone number to Mora, but I'm sure they will reply to an email. I hope they can answer your question. If you do find any information out, I would be interested in what they say. Have a great weekend Allen, all the best, Mark.

I'm an Aussie, but hail from the UK originally, so my ears are attuned to most English accents. However, I do admit that the combination of the accent and the rapid-fire speech makes it VERY hard to understand, even to my ears. I got the drift of most of it, and what you actually did was good stuff. I'd like to watch more of your videos, but I agree with the other comments - PLEASE slow down the speech so your worldwide audience can understand it ;)

Hey you folks out there. I‘m Austrian (no kangaroos!!!) I could just guess what you were talking about.... :-D Thanks for the vid!

Hi Jed, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment :) For the money the bushcraft black is a great knife. If you are looking for a full tang knife then the Garberg has that over the bushcraft black. I know they make the Garberg in a carbon steel version which is my main choice of steel. But if you only have £35 to spend, then the Bushcraft black is a great choice, but if you are looking for a more sturdy knife with a better sheath option, then I would opt for a Garberg. I don't own one, but I have used then in the past and they are a brilliant tool. Again they have come down in price, so it would be a good time to buy one. Thanks again, all the best, Mark :)

England itself is seperated by a common language. There are many ppl in the south who cant understand a word we say in the north especially the geordies who come from the far north east of england. This accept is in between. It is a fairly typical midlands accent. But not as strong as the accents from the west Midlands like Birmingham or Wolverhampton.
