I love the Garberg. Just a no nonsense no BS affordable and solid bushcrafting knife.

I got the cheapest Mora I could find and I love it. Sumbitch is so sharp that it'll cut you if you look at it wrong.

Great video Chris. Its good that Mora is now offering the carbon steel version. Will be easy to maintain a sharp edge. That kydex sheath is really neat. Thanks for sharing.

The Garberg is actually a great knife made with great carbon steel. I have one in my collection.

ITS SO HARD BROTHER TO GET GOOD HELP NOW DAYS. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO BROTHER

Always enjoy your reviews Chris. Will's input was very good as well. Hope you guys can collaborate on more reviews in the future. Wanted to buy this but decided to go with the Bushcraft Black instead and am extremely happy with it as a secondary knife to the BK7.

Id love to see it in 3V , But I do love the ease of sharpening that 1095 has .. Either way , I'm glad they finally came out with the carbon steel version .

Awesome. I have been waiting. Mine soon.

The great thing with the original sheath is that it doesn't interfere with your backpack - in contrast to kydex sheaths like yours... where the handle gets too high up. In a survival situation, you will probably have a backpack.

I'm patiently waiting for the feathersticking segment😉

Badass knife man. May have to look into getting one. Awesome review.

I’d love to see that go head to head in the same gauntlet test you put the Gerber Strong arm through. I bought one after that.

Good knives! They are dangerously sharp!

Awesome work brother

That darkened blade makes it look like the Bushcraft Black. Different handle, which is a shame..I love my Mora BB! Best budget bushcrafter ever imho. In fact, it is better than most of my more expensive blades.

Another great review. It looks like it's worth every penny.

Very good, Thank you very much

I’m not a steel expert but what I’ve always heard is carbon is easier to sharpen and holds an edge longer. It is a trade off for not being corrosion resistant. It looks like they have solved it with that coating though. I seen a video of Canterbury saying the coating is impregnated into the steel. That is why you can still hit sparks off the spine that is coated. Stainless is a big deal where I live which is southeastern coastline of the US. Everything is salt or brackish and the humidity in the summer is usually 5 million percent in the summer. You can smell the salt in the air

Great knife. I have the stainless one. Which one has beter eag retention do you think? Thanks for the video keep them coming.

love Mora.

BTW...The Mora Garberg Carbon basically looks like my Mora Bushcraft Black in a full tang version. I purchased the Black for around $32 delivered, so I am happy with it, and not sure having an $85 Garberg is that important, since I have the Black already, and it will basically do everything the Garberg will do.

Nice review.

I really like that kydex sheath. gonna look into one for another knife. I like the garberg in carbon steel, but feel it's not worth the money when I already have several knifes that fit that particular bill. still want one though !

@PM101 it is odd how you never talk about your amazing knives. I can NOT picture using anything but my CPM 154 Bushbat

Chris Two Questions #1 what is your primary go to method of sharpening your knives ? #2 WHAT do you use to maintain a Damascus knife to prevent it from rusting ?

Dot they still sell that wonderful sheath somewhere? C2 site seems to be empty...

Mine came true scandi, without the secondary edge. I'd get a hold of Morakniv.

Imo, the Garberg is SO much better with secondary bevel removed - 0 degree scandi all the way👍👍

I get jealous when some one says they don't worry about knives rusting. Here in south Louisiana ive had a knife rust while sitting oiled in the sheath. Lol

Nice review as always. Tried to go over and buy from c2fab and website not working for phone browser. Tried to email him. Thought you might want to give him a heads up. Thanks for all you great work.

im about to purchase would you choose the leather or multi-use sheath offering?

i have the stainless should i get rid of the secondary bevel and go full scandi or not ???? thanks for any advice

Hi Chris. How's Will doing? I haven't heard anything since he put his gear up for raffle.

@5:25 "I wish it had the handle the XX XX had" What did he say? I don't understand.

Either stainless or CARBON it's okay ....... Splendid review !

Hey Chris do you anyone selling the leather sheath for the garberg thanks

Hey Chris I was wondering if you would maybe do a review the new Condor SELKNAM KNIFE at all.

Hi Chris big fan I wanted to know what were your thoughts on slingbows. I caught the archery bug a while back. But I couldn't find a bow at a good price. But I saw one of the old videos and you were reviewing the bad ass slingbow. So I got one it's a cheater one but for a few bucks you have a very small bow. But anyway long story short what do you think about slingbows

I got a pocket sheath made for this as well, I also have a secondary custom Pathfinder Kydex sheath with a 6” Ferro Rod holder. The Mora Carbon has to be their best knife yet. Me personally, I use Cold Steel pocket folders for stainless steel, mora carbon as my fixed blade. So I hav both stainless and carbon steel. If you’re going to carry two knives, makes sense to have two different steels.

Two thumbs up.

I am a long time fan of your videos, and I appreciate this video. But please specifically tell my why this shouldn't be someone's primary knife? I have had the stainless model for a year and I love it. I suppose that someone might want a bigger knife--more power to them,if that is the case. But other than that, what features should a "primary" knife have? I pack a folding saw on my belt along with the Garberg and, in my view, that is a pretty awesome combination.

I'm the morakniv ambassador for South Africa it's definitely not coated it's a blue oxide finish

Unrelated: I'd love a full integral Buck Selkirk in CPM S35VN for primary.

Just a question, how does weight factor into your decision on whether to carry a knife? I know typically with quality comes weight. Is there a knife that you feel is too heavy for belt carry but still worth carrying in a pack or some other alternate carry method? Also, how many carry methods do you use personally and how does weight factor into each method? I wear suspenders and plan on getting a pair made of leather with an intergral sheath for a small EDC utility type fixed blade. I constantly need a knife at work and want one easily accessable.

i live in ms which one should i buy ss or carbon and why

My like is the same like I clicked for the other video you made with the original Garberg. Same like, just a different video.

It looks a lot like the bushcraft black and the Pathfinder Moras.

"I'm...you know who the hell I am." lol.

I personally find the coating on that knife and the Bushcraft Black very pretty, but not very functional. My B.Black rusted a lot, but I live in a yearlong very humid area. Don't think that coating will efficiently protect against rust if you live in some place like NY or along the Atlantic coast, even if you take care of the thing, but for a dryer environment; I'd go carbon any day of the week. Nice video as always people.

One of my dreams would be to get a set up like Chris’s old Bob’s + wolfcustom... dream come true... one day baby!😂 Yeah, I’ve been around for a long time😂😳

Here it comes ,,,,, i say the best knife made and i have many

I like it _but_ I have a few Moras and I do want to hold on and save for a Spyderco bushcraft and maybe one of those finnish Helles before I buy anymore Moras

You should have this knife in the gauntlet be nice to see what it’s made of

Hey there, who’s the maker of the big Ferro rod?

3v and A2 knife, if only one knife, which would u choose for outdoors?

Get your hands on a Black Scout featherstick knife yet?

Will REALLY CRACKS ME UP !!!BWAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!!

My Bark River bush crafter came to me far, far, duller than my mora bushcraft black OR my essee RB3. So I can empathize with your first garberg experience. It was disappointing to say the least to spend over 200 dollars on a dull knife just because it says 3V on the side. I’ve learned that convenes are awesome on 2mm thick Japanese chefs knives, not so much on 1/8” outdoors knives. I had to put a secondary on, and actually thin the convex to get it to perform. Still love the knife, the handle and the sheath are excellent, and the steel is crazy tough.

Yeah I know your Rambo lol kids in man. Not being that guy but 3V and as far as I know CPM Steel isn't ever Graded as Carbon or HC but for example 3V is Graded as Tool Steel. Not sure but I would agree the coating is a laminate. That's the norm for European made knives as the process is done in France. Maybe some other locations too, from what I understand the Machining for that process is really expensive. Good review

Nice! Also Cheeseburgers are good.

I think I saw the Bark River Fox River EXT!

I used a lansky and sharpened the secondary at about 20 degrees. stropped it some and it is screaming sharp. I actually like the secondary bevel.

Yeah but is it a real knife?

How does it compare to the Jääkäripuukko?

Garberg is the best knife from Morakniv.

Salt is life

How does this compare with the Mora Bushcraft Black?

At that price I would choose at least 10 different knives.

Easily sharpened. Quickly dulled.

I would love it if you put it head to head with a 15-20 dollars Bahco 2449. Bet there are a million points to say ...

why did you guys become negative on the work sharp Ken onion

Chris, what do you like better about your spendy knives that you don't seem to be so excited for this one? And what's a secondary bevel? I thought scandies all have one?

Wait wtf happened to Derick?? He was just emailing me the other day talking about moving KnivesShipFree to Chatanooga...

Amazon says the coating is... "tungsten DLC anti-corrosive black coating" Not sure I would pay over double the price of my Bushcraft Black just to get a full tang... I beat the crap out of my Mora and it has never failed me... If I finally break it... at least it was only $40 compared to the Garberg which is over $100... My Esse-6 cost about the same amount... I think the Garberg should be more in the $70 range... Still a nice knife though...

You know who I am. Phil from rugrats?

80 bucks for a knife the keeps up with my lt wright in 01

I'm one of the guys that think the Garberg is way overpriced. Over here (The Netherlands) the leather sheath version is more expensive then the multi mount and the carbon version is about 10 euro (12 usd) more expensive then the stainless one according to the sponsor of DBK. I agree with Chris that the multi mount sheath is not good and you are likely to lose your knife in wet, mud or snow. There's only one velcro strap keeping the knife and sheath combo in the multi mount thing and velcro sucks when wet, in mud or in snow. Of course the Garberg is not the first full tang knife Mora has made. They made truly full tang knives in the past being hunters knives. This is technically not full tang but a protruding stick tang. The handles are made of two compounds (different materials) and they can come loose. The handles are not as strong as the handle of a 10 euro Hultafors GK. I also don't like to much the checkering for better grip on the handle. Sure they provide grip but are way more difficult to clean. No problem if you have enough water around you like a stream or a river, but a bitch when all you have is basically drinking water with you. But of course most reviews are done when you are close to the sink with warm water and soap. If the price comes down to 50 euro for the leather sheath version I might be interested.

Yeah! (Too blabby?)

No thin skin here.......get Salty bro😎

Seems like a rip off. The stainless model gives you an upgraded steel. This model gives you the basic mora carbon..... disappointing.....

My own stupid opinion, but you add the term "bushcraft" to any knife or tool, and the price increases by a factor of at least 3x. I'm sure the Garbergs are great knives. Spines that can strike a spark (so can my Companion with a little bit of filing). And a larger, fuller tang that sticks out the back. What else? That full tang makes it worth 4x the price of my Companion HD? I know, I'm just being a babbling idiot. LOL And over a year late, too. :) I guess I need to go see if DBK does a Garberg vs Companion destruction test. lol

Ummmm that's the electronics pocket. Buahahaha

Still can't beat them for the money

Can you for once say after a long pause: " I am IronMan", then crank that AC/DC tune? Come one dude. Just once, for my birthday.

Love this knife

Fab shop is closed. What's up with that? I want one of those sheathes

I completely disagree with ya Chris that soft rubber handle just gets to dinged up and nasty, these handles are freaking solid and take a beating. Besides we all know you have girly hands sitting in your basement always behind a computer "pretending to be an outdoorsman". Matter of fact this is probably not you ....all that money you made from Schrade they probably made a Chris Schrade Bot ....wait does your buddy even know ?? He doesn't know does he ! Wow that's just wrong😂😉 "Joke" don't block me LOL also a joke😉

Do u like the Bushcraft black??

80 dollars is a joke for that baby!

1:00

my self i like Marttiini knife better

Sometimes I look at you and your toys and I think how much I hate you. Kidding. Just jealous. I live in the Pacific Northwest AKA a rainforest. The stainless is the way to go for me, but I'm probably going to have to get this one too. Great review!

Will...……...BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!!!!!!!!! LMAO !!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK...SO if you had to choose, would you rather have the new Mora Garberg Carbon, or the Mora Garberg KILLER, namely the Terava Jaakaripuukko?

It looks like you don't carve or make feather sticks very often bud...

Too bloody expensive in Europe ! what the hell it's a EU product , why 120 € ? Cool knife , Bullshit pricing ...

I darken all my Mora carbon steel knives with apple cider vinegar.

What does a $300 dollar knife do that this cannot besides putting a hole in your wallet?

First!

Way overpriced.... not entirely sure why people would need more then 2 knifes when hiking or camping. Medium or preferably large size knife will do all the work. What do u need small bush craft knife fore unless ur making a fucking figurine or a flute to play. Half the time u start a fire with bunch of branches and leafs off the ground anyhow. No reason to refine pieces of wood into feather sticks or small tinder sticks. And even if u had to in case of worse possible rainy day nothing that large knife cant handle lol. And a pocket knife can handle all the food processing.
