Cheap Mora clipper

[Harvestman]

Saw this on the British Blades forum. Thought a heads up would be worth it on here.

Your link doesn't seem to work

It worked a short time ago, but now I can't get into the website.

Basically, Camelot Outdoor Supplies are selling the Mora Clipper High Carbon, for £6.50 with free postage (I think) in shop-soiled condition. The soil seems to amount to a few surface marks on the blade, from what peopl on BB were saying. They seemed very happy with their purchases.

No affiliation. I'll probably get one myself.

The website seems to be back up folks! I clicked the link in the first post, and it worked.

I got one from them last week and have to say that delivery was prompt, and the knife is simply a little tarnished (which you'd expect for a carbon steel blade)!

I added one to my basket and when I went to checkout I got a warning and told me that the site is not trusted by firefox something to do with a secuity certificate! Any one else get this message.

Just to check , I got the same warning with Chrome . Especially after the website being down for a while those interested might be better off ringing them up .
Trev .

Oh yeh , I've ordered shop soiled stuff from these before and no problem with the product .

Yes, I did and still bought the knife (and it arrived). The reason why this message is coming up is that their digital certificate is slightly out of date (you can check it yourself -- I did); it's not actually very serious and your transaction is still protected.

Just oredered one good price for a back up or spare.

 

[naefearjustbeer]

Ok thanks for the info I just placed my order! you can never have too many knives!

 

[Harvestman]

Looks like the cheap ones have now gone.

 

[naefearjustbeer]

Mine arrived today! I think I must of got one of the last ones available. It has a few tiny marks on the blade but I am more than happy with it. I am off out to try it out just now.

 

[aardvarkphil]

got mine today too.
Doesn't appear to be any damage or marks to the blade at all.
Just finished stropping it up.......Scary sharp.....well happy

 

[telwebb]

Yep - me too. Only marks are so negligible I wouldn't have complained even if I'd paid full whack. Now to learn how to sharpen!

 

[naefearjustbeer]

Mine was pretty damn sharp on arrival. I have spent the afternoon whittling sticks into a big pile of shavings in the garden. I was trying to carve a spoon but my skills are not up to it yet. Will keep practising though as I could quite easily rough out the shape and produce a nice finish but struggled in carving out the bowl part of the spoon.

 

[DFCA]

Mine arrived today too - I am struggling to determine what exactly is of 2nd quality with it!

Thanks for the heads up - total bargain!
