Norway Jan 2013 - Five (plus one) go wild on the Nordmarka

it was not a Mora it was the new issue highlander knife, substandard to the Mora in my opinion. it broke battening trying to go through a knot in the wood, I had a Mora with me and used it to baton the same wood pile and had no issue going through knots I came across.

I did hit very hard too, do not know my own strength Compared to a clipper and yes it is slightly cheaper made but I do not think clipper would have lasted on the piece of I wood I used it on either. So lesson learnt for me if i try anything like it again I would go for a full tang knife or try a smaller piece of wood

You should have taken that one I showed you at North Wood Pete.

It was one thing I missed last year, I couldn't find them in any of the supermarkets near Bardufoss.

that's because they are mostly a southern thing.

I was trying out the issue knife and weight option caused my decision choice, but I have certainly learnt from it. Normally it would be my woodlore or another one of my decent blades
