Hultafors: New range of knives
- Thread starter Tony
- Start date
These are an excellent knife, i have had one for quite a while now i bought it from City Electrical factors (CEF) for £6.99. I agree the hinge does look fragile but i have as yet not been able to break it.
Hultafors has bought a few of the building equipment suppliers out recently so are selling all sorts now.
i did a series of tests on the HVK back in October, very strong blade indeed, some of the tasks were ott, but prove the point about the durability of the HVK, i made a video of the tests if you are interested, due to the limitations of YouTube the tests are in five parts [video=youtube;2m1EjwdKpx8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2m1EjwdKpx8[/video]

I'd agree it looks a very good knife up there with the Moras but that would be if it was £10 or so. When we discussed them in this thread http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=60665&highlight=hultafors+knife someone posted a link showing
you can buy them for £3.50 here http://snickersclothing.co.uk/acatalog/Knives.html
Now that has got to be a good knife for the money.

they look great! also check out their axes, hand forged, similar to the GB range and starting around 25 quid
may be good for someone

They are very good - I have used the Forest/hunter extensively and like it a lot - a bit heavier and chunkier than the GFB SFA.
OK - I just found out that the craftsmans tang is 55mm with a hole in the end ...ideal for rehandling!
Hear is a picture of the tang. Next one I do will have a brass pin through the hole, all things going well.
