mora question

[mutineer]

Hi all. Is the companion in stainless a 3/4 length tang like carbon version?

Cheers all

The short answer is yes.

Thank you. It is slightly thicker and stainless so I may purchase knife number 2! I cant see why you would need any other knife.
Cheers.

The entire Mora tang question is quite misplaced. As a commercial fisherman I used to abuse Moras on a daily basis and never saw one break through its handle despite being jammed into haulers, used as pry bars and all sorts of other horrible things.

You're not wrong there ronnie. My Dad was a butcher and they would abuse the plastic handled victorinox knives. He would use a malet to bash the blade through big joints. Isn,t there a name for doing that sort of thing with wood?!

Truncating is what your thinking of.

If you want to go even cheaper, and still have that kind of quality, look at the hultafors range.
