Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
Rather than rehandle the partial tang "moulded on" Moras I rehandle loads of full length stick tang Moras (mainly Jonsson Moras) like the classic red - great blades
The partial tangs rehandle OK but not as strong after as they were before - in my experience at least...
Hm..well I really like the shape and grind on the 510 but not so much the 'Ray Mears' logo on the side. So is there a way I can get the same blade but with a full tang and a new handle?
Does the classic red one has the same profile blade?
made this touther week....... have yet to try it out....
That looks very nice, what is the handle made from?
that would probably be a good bet to get a red handled mora or "mora classic" they are pretty good value knives
the blade is O1 4mm with home made yellow liners, 4mm brass pins and the handle it black corrian that Robbi gave me... the next one is for Robbi as a thank you.....
I know you guys take your knives pretty seriously but I thought
you might enjoy some comic relief. That's okay, just point and
laugh...

The best knife is the one you use.
These are the ones I use, from the left to the right the ones I use the most
The first one is homemade with a handle made of cork (I wanted a birchbark handle but my teacher said "no that's going to take to long" so I took the closest thing I could find). The second one is my old trusty mora
The third one is mostly used as a kitchen knife, see http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=70460 to find out why. Nr4 is my backup EKA folding knife with a Fjällräven mark at the other side.
Nr 5 and 6, I found those two at one of the storingsheds at my grandparents place, nr5, the mora, has most likely been used by my grandfather or father, Ophhs that wrong it should be, has most likely been ABUSED by my grandfather or father at the farm but since it's a mora knife it's still going strong
