I haz Garberg!

[snappingturtle]

Well For just over £80 this came!



Definitely Mora's top grade, feels and works very well, a fine working an reassuringly solid knife for sure, and the multi mount system is ace!



So far I have done a little; splitting, scraping, shaving and struck sparks with it, it was pretty mint at all of it!

Looks good.

That'll get the job done- enjoy! ☺

Think the most interesting is the multi mount. Like how Lars over on Survival Russia YouTube channel carries his Kansbol bandoleer style. Seems preferable to a neck carry.

Yep the multi system is pretty fandango! The eldris feels chunky enough when carried neck style, and the garberg would feel like a mill stone!

I think many reviews have covered aspects of its strength, and its ability to cross over into more heavy work, but I think they can miss a key aspect of its form, its a small knife, compromising size, basically length and weight for handiness, so I though I would have a go at a bit of carving, sorry its a bit crude but I have not done any for a long time.

That knife is all you will ever need.

You may have something there! I have for a long time preferred a larger blade, 6-7 inch with some weight on it! but this knife...I don't know I'm liking the trade off compact and dextrous might be the way to go! I understand its limits and cant really fault it.

I've got one and don't rate it highly at all.. used it a couple of times then consigned it to the drawer.

Didn't like the one I handled either. I like my Scandi's to have a thinner blade so they can still cut

 

[Robbi]

I've had one for a while now and whilst not the prettiest of knives I think it's a great all round user, great blade and handle material for working in salty environments, the handle is good in the wet, the spine strikes a huge spark, it cuts well and holds an edge, food prep is adequate, granted it's not a cheap Mora but I reckon it'll last.

I actually think it's quite chunky in the hand and gives a good solid feel.

I like it

I wouldn't mind getting into that drawer............T.

Well I can say I'm very much taken with the mora's each one I have has its own ability and trade offs but there all very capable, I just picked up a kansbol with the multi mount, really like this system, think I'll do a bulk review at some point as I now have the full range of the type I like.
