£13? You got ripped off there my friend… should be less than a tenner for a Mora 1.

But yeah, the Mora knives are a good solid start, but you may well develop a taste for a more solid, personalised knife. All about the feel.

Mora gives the best bang for the buck. Use it, abuse it. It can take a lot of abuse, and when it dies you just buy a couple more.

Then you need a couple if 'nice' knives too. With fancy steels, handle materials, scabbards.

I love the Mora 1 - I have a couple that are pretty much as they come but for a long time they were my favourite knife for customising with new handles and leather.
Great knives!

Quite right Dan. And not just for anyone starting out either. It'll keep you going for ages. I use a Classic 2 myself, which is the same in most respects, just a bit longer blade I think.

Before the recent fad for expensive knifes or ultra expensive custom knives started, Mora and the other (now gone) brands from the town of Mora in Dalarna was THE knifes of choice for 99% of the knife wearing and using population.
Your first knife was one made in Mora, then you went through a couple of dozen through your life.

The Sandviken steels they use today are considered to be top knife making steels by several Japanese knife makers, so exclusive and goid they charge a premium for those knifes.
