I have the companion HD carbon version as well as a carbon version of the Garberg and I prefer the companion. I prefer the blade geometry and how it feels in the hand.

My uncle gave me my first Mora knife 56 years ago. At that time, "moras" were made by 3 different manufacturers in the area of Mora Sweden and many had a steel guard. Not many reviews about a Mora being an excellent knife used for large and small game hunting. Thanks for your excellent review and thanks for being a Scout master. All the best to you in all future endeavors .

Many years ago my wife took a trip to Sweden to see a friend. She asked what I wanted her bring back to me. I asked for a knife. She got me a mora companion carbon.

I love these simple but well thought out knives 🔪. The quiver can be quickly and securely attached to the belt without having to fumble it halfway out of the pants. If necessary, the quiver can also be attached to the waistband without a belt. And Mora proves that you can produce cleanly crafted knives at a reasonable price in Sweden and don't have to outsource production to Asia. 😃👍🏼🇸🇪

Nice video, I have one also in olive green. They are great knives, I took a file to the back of mine for a 90 degree spine. Also I looped some para-cord, and made mine into a neck knife. I put a piece of bike tube on the sheath to hold a small ferro rod. I do enjoy your videos. Have a great weekend.

Funny, I have five of them as well, seventeen Moras in total. My favorite brand of fixed blades, amazing value.

As you said, these are great knives for a great price. For everything from food prep to dressing out a deer they are hard to beat. I like the carbon steel for the patina it develops, but that is a personal choice.

i love my moras pair it with a victorinox swiss army knife and id say you’d have a combo that’s gonna do 90% of anything you’d ever need ! btw you need to check the kansbol and eldris too

I have seen a test of the Mora Companion Heavy Duty Stainless by a guy who totally destroys it but says it is so durable that he gives it 10/10. Thanks 💖👍

I was gifted a Mora companion this previous Christmas and I have to agree, it’s an incredible value for the money. As a long time Benchmade and Kershaw guy, it’s an impressive Fixed blade. Thank you for the review!

Thanks for the review. It came in handy in time. I was in doubt whether to buy the Companion or the 511 and was looking for all kinds of information about each of these knives. I will order Companion anyway.

Really prefer the ruberized handle as opposed to the (🎉the smoothe wood. 9:10 7/15/23

I love Mora knives!! The 511 is the best $10 knife out there the companion and the robust are some of the best -$20 knives out there absolutely love Mora's 👍😎

Agreed, they hit (cut) WAY above their weight, don't think you could go wrong with one 🙂

I have the SS Companions in my fishing boxes, carbon ones in hunting packs and carbon HDs in survival and bushcraft packs and vehicles so I guess I have about 14 companions and a couple of Classics with red handles. Cant even count those I have bought and gifted to friends and family.

Affordable. One of my first hunting knife and it has helped to skin out every animal from a No at to a white tail deer and even a Big old Bison and the knife hold its edge and sharpens up quickly with w wet stone or a sharping Steal. I agree about liking the drop point. Have a lot of knives and the drop point is prominent across just about all of my knives. 7/15/23

Great video and review. Easy to understand, and useful information provided. I subscribed and hit the "like" button. Thanks. Eric in Kissimmee, Fl.

I bought the Robust recently in carbon. Such an excellent and useful blade. I put that in my toolbox in the shed. But have had to buy a companion hd in carbon as a replacement for the house. Mora are so useful I can't do without them. I fancy a 2000 series but in stainless for food prep at home and camping as well. The steel is just incredible👍

Great review of the Companion. Get this: I am totally an outdoor guy. Live on a river,life time flyfisherman. But I only owned folding and fish filet knives. Then the first week of Oct 2022, I was diagnosed with bladder and then prostate cancer. I have essentially been bedridden since the first week in October. I discovered lots of time to you tube surf. I discovered Mora knives. Mora knives has given me hope and anticipation that there will be an active life for me once again by early May. Now for my Mora story. I personally own 2 basic 511, 3 SS Companions, 6” & 3.5” fish filet, and a Kansbol OD green. I’ve purchased 8 SS Companions and gifted to family members and two 40 yr friends You might say I went Mora crazy. I can’t wait to really use one.

I remember when I had 5…..I have over 30 now. They’re so good. I use a HD that I’ve beat the snot out of, it’s still going strong 7 years later.

So true. I like Mora Clippers a bit more.

Nice video I have many moras and I have to agree they are great value for the money , and like you I have them in every pack etc.

mora companion hd. if you just need one knife i love these .Also own about 10 number 2 classics have them just about everywhere

Of the 9 Morakniv knives I own and use, 3 are Companions. A stainless Companion is my only kitchen knife. Just great design and the quality is first rate and the prices are very reasonable.

Is a great knife

The morakniv companion was the very first knife that I chose myself and purchased with my own money shortly after graduating highschool. It was my work edc for a good while before I tipped it. I actually didn’t get another knife and stopped carrying it in favor of a razor blade for a couple years after that but the memory of using it is what sparked the massive knife addiction I have now at 24. I actually just found that original companion today. Bonus points to the fact that it’s in this baby blue color it seems morakniv no longer manufactures this knife in. Awesome! Gonna regrind the tip and take it right back to work/

Just bought 10 of them... 6.5 euros... 2 of them already gone as a gift... 👌

For knives that will get tossed in various packs, I prefer stainless steel. I mistakenly bought my first Companion in carbon - no biggie, but ordered the next one in stainless. Have a green drab, and now a blue. The plastic sheath is more sanitary than leather sheaths, and care-free in wet weather. I have several other various Moras, and love them all.

Mora is the best buy in knives. I have 5 . Carbon steel all the way.

Only 5? I bought two boxes of 15 each (OD and Orange). lol. I ended selling most off, that is most of the Companions in the boxes. I still have about 20 old and new Mora knives of various designs including several Companions and HD Companion. The Garberg and Forest black are my go to these days. Moras are just good knives for the money (the exception being their new Ash handle models).

I have 2 and get one every time they havs a booth at the local gunshow.

Older vid but.. I agree of your positive points. Especially blade shape, steak knife to paring..wanting a a neck knife for outdoor/camping. ~ For a coupla years I was on the fence of getting a Mora. After looking at a bunch of I found I liked the Companion. In that I found it was 3/4 tang. ummm, back stepping in thought. Year later up comes that crazy JoeX testing a Companion HD in SS. Holy moly does that guy put knives through abuse! ..stabbed heavy to a stump round of wood he bent the blade on over two handed..showed, then bent it back same way near straight. ~ No way I'd ever such use any knife as. ~ So I landed on an orange one wanted, so much of my worry of the 3/4 tang worthy. ~ Point of my post actually is many don't like the sheath due to they think it loosens over time and can fall out. ~ Some from various heat sources then squeeze. (huh, it's a one hander right/why chance messing it?) Others do mods making some fidgety wrap from sheath to handle as aunt crafter might. ~~ ..anyway, after eyeballing mine I thought of the bag of marble type bungee cord rounds made for tarp grommet use. I just shortened the bungee and it's a finger flick on the marble flipping retainer off/two finger back. ~~ I hemmed 'n wondered of measuring how short to cut the bungee. The hole in the marble for knot is so deep (3/4") no measuring was needed. ~ Put/slide bungee in top of sheath clip, cut bungee long at marble after picking out the knot. Re-tie knot close to marble as possible, trim ends and melt. Stuff knot back in marble hole of origin and done. ~ The 3/4" of recessed hole in the plastic marble for knot was perfect slack needed after stuffing back in. ~ If ever the sheath gets looser that knife isn't going anywhere with that bungee on rubber handle. ~~ Five of same color of forest/trail floor? yup, glad I got orange. In my case things don't fall out as in youth, but do get misplaced during use final.

I bought that same green companion at a sportsman's warehouse here in Arizona a few years ago. They don't carry Morakniv anymore here😢

I have two, one thin, one the HD, both in carbon.

I bought the bahco 2444 only because I found it cheaper than a mora where I am, its just a bahco branded stainless mora far as I can tell

Mora Companion is the best choice if this is your first woods knife. Mora - a lot of knife for little money

I have two hd in carbon steel.

Korean knife sharpeners like this knife as it is much easier to sharpen than their local forged knives

Huhhhh 😂 I have 2 dogs in the fight,Hultafor and Bahco,,sooo what do you have to say about yourself now fella 😂😂😂,,Yes, I can’t say anything bad about Mora Kniv ❤ I have couple but I just use Companion MG Carbon because it’s NICE and fits my hand 🖐️ perfectly…People say it’s beginner knife 😂 I say BS,it’s a good knife for $20-30 CDN pesos (Canada), I just need Garberg in my collection and I’m done ✅…

There is nothing that you have said in this vid that I could possibly disagree with .I only have the one green one the other 5 are black or "Anthracite" as it say's on my suppliers site as they were cheaper than any with different colours for some reason but of course exactly the same quality. I have them paired with all of my bigger blades I would have one in my pack as EDC but you are not permitted to carry any blade in a public area that is not a slip joint under 3 inches (they will even confiscate any in your car glove box or boot /trunk if it is found and you risk arrest) ,here in the UK knife laws are Draconian in the extreme along with a few others .

I rather have 5 Garbergs which I do have already lol

1 knife is not enough, he needs way mora 😂

Only 5 ?

P R O M O S M 😝

You are right about their carbon steel. I think it is called C100 or something like that (no doubt some one will correct me). But it seems to be extremely close to 1095 and the heat treat mora applies gets the best out of the steal as well.
