Morakniv Eldris Fixed-Blade Pocket-Sized Knife with Sandvik Stainless Steel Blade and Plastic Sheath 2.2-Inch.

Seriously, I dont know how Mora does it, and for so little money too! I bought this to put into my primary Fire Kit for backpacking. The size is perfect for the compact kit, the blade is razor sharp and makes feather sticks like it was born to do it, and the 90 degree spine shaves wood like a sawmill and spits a shower of sparks off a ferocium rod that would make a dragon jealous! I chose the orange color so it would stand out if lying on the ground (and also because my fire kit color code is orange). Extremely durable edge and super easy to sharpen when that becomes necessary. Swedish steel is impressive in that aspect. I fully expect to grab a few more in different colors. These knives are just so handy!

Great little work knife that will last and stay sharp without a lot of attention.

I think this is a really cool evolution of Mora knives. I love the size of this knife. It is really cool to be able to get a full grip on such a small knife. I feel like this knife has the capability for very fine work. Despite its small size, the Eldris feels to me like it is acutally heavier than a Mora classic 1, but I think that could be because the handle feels more dense. My Eldris did not come as sharp as some of my other Mora knives did, and that was slightly disappointing. I also have noticed that the grinds, especially the profile grind on the tip are a bit uneven and the grind lines are wavy. The blade is slightly warped, but it is hardly noticeable. Despite a couple minor fit and finish issues, I really like the great functionality of this knife and how well it handles for its small size. The Eldris is a pleasure to use and I have really enjoyed it so far.

I love this knife. While it isn’t necessarily the best Mora for the money, it also isn’t super expensive for the quality you’re getting here. I love that it has the unfinished blade spine, and I can confirm that this does help with using a fire steel. I’ve also seen reviews say that the unfinished spine makes it uncomfortable to use in a pushing based carving style. Firstly, I wouldn’t get this specifically as a carving knife, though for me it does work well for that in addition to other functions. And secondly, the spine hasn’t really been noticeably uncomfortable while carving, even when I do push the spine of the blade (which is at least 50-60% of the time for my carving style). Something I was skeptical about was the compound grind on this blade. But, even though this is a pretty small fixed blade, the compound grind actually does work well for it. It doesn’t sacrifice the ease of sharpening the blade, because the scandi grind angle actually remains consistent throughout the blade, so it’s still one relatively easy to find sharpening angle. And, the compound aspect of the grind allows you to have a greater variety of cutting angles when you need that kind of thing. In terms of blade steel, I think you’d have unrealistically high expectations for this price point to be disappointed by its quality. It’s nice and stiff, sharpens relatively easily, and holds an edge, even with a true scandi grind. This knife does come sharp out of the box, but with about an hour of work, some varying grades of sandpaper and strop, it’s actually really easy to take that sharpness up a notch and put a real razor edge on the knife. The handle is great for a guy with big hands like me, and the grip on it works well. My only real gripe with this is the sheath. For me, when I wear this knife and I go hiking, I can be jumping around a little, climbing a bit, and other higher energy activities. And I have had situations where it’s fallen out of the sheath because of an impact that I would really expect a good sheath to hold well against. Because of this, if you’re going to particularly active while wearing this, to add a quick release stopper knot on a land yard through the hole on the end of the handle to make sure everything is as safe as can be. Other than that, I’d strongly recommend this!

All Stainless steel will rust. The grades that are best suited for knife steel will rust faster than others due to the carbon content which is necessary for good edge taking and holding. Most knife users with experience gained from working with knives already know that. Many ways to remove rust from the surface of a blade. No need to list them here as anyone who can leave a review here can look it up on google or the like. Mora makes a great quality knife at any cost. The fact they are affordable is a big plus. I’m not affiliated with Mora in any way. I am just a knife user hoping to help others better understand why reviews can be tricky when it come to cutlery.

I dont think a day has gone by that I havent used this knife I recommend it for everybody and Im a knife enthusiast
