A friend of mine has just returned from holiday with a frosts 164 spoon knife for me as a present. In its current state [out of the box] it is completely blunt. I have come to be used to my moras arriving sharp and ready to go, but this thing just seems somehow unfinished. Is this normal...

I am about to buy myself a new pair of trousers, and these are on my list of possible purchases... Are these as good as they look on the site or should I go elsewhere? Cheers

Day off work today meant I was inevitably going to put my boots and wax jacket on and go wandering around the woods. I ended up making myself a cup of pine tea and watching a couple of roe wandering about the woods just below me. Lovely afternoon indeed, if a bit chilly. Have a few...

Was digging through a box in the garage and put my hand on a mora clipper in its green plastic sheath. I don't remember buying this knife, or how the heck it got in my workshop but I do know its carbon steel and has taken a lovely edge. Might use it as a neck carry it is a lovely and light...

Hello guys I was wondering if there is anyone who knows where I can get myself a sheath made for the above axe. What I want is something with 1 or 2 belt loops on the back that I can have on my belt to hang the axe from, so that it is more secure than with the supplied cover. Many thanks
