Morakniv Kansbol Fixed Blade Knife with Sandvik Stainless Steel Blade

this is a nice budget friendly outdoor/ camping knife. its very sharp. seems like its going to hold up well outdoors, the handle is comfortable and i like the color (mine is orange)

For $35 this is a great knife. Its sharp as hell, and resharpens easily. The square back is useful for using on a flint. I have no complaints.

I have the knife system on my backpack with the Molle mount system and it is very convenient. Morakniv is the best value and best made cutlery in my opinion. Never disappoints.

Beautiful knife great for hunting/ fishing

I like this blade profile. And it is wicked sharp.

Great knife! I have several different Mora knives of varying sizes and builds. This one rivals the heavy duty version of the Companion for heft and use. The 90° spine is a plus, as is the small ferro rod included. Theres also a diamond sharpening strip, but Ill never use that except for chipped edge repair as its way too coarse to maintain the fine edge this comes with. Ill stick with whetstones and stropping, thanks. Seems like a gimmick rather than practical. The dual grind is interesting and functional for finer work near the tip. While I prefer carbon steel for bushcraft, this one has the stainless blade. Its JUST a hair thinner than I like for serious crafting like batonning, but is still robust enough for that - could be just a little thicker, especially when using the more brittle stainless. This ones going in my hiking pack.

This is a GREAT knife. Just buy it! You wont regret it.

This knife has the best spine for striking a fire steel that I have ever seen. The blade came shaving sharp and the handle is pretty much perfect for its intended use.

When I chose this knife to review, it completed my Morakniv collection; I now have every major knife Morakniv offers. Comparing this knife to every other knife in Moraknivs line up, the Kansbol is closest to the Garberg in terms of performance and design. Kansbol vs. Garberg: 1. The Garberg is full tang, the Kansbol is not. 2. The blade thickness on the Garberg is around .5mm thicker than the Kansbol. 3. The stainless steel version of the Garberg is slightly better than the Kansbol (The Garberg maintains an edge slightly better). 4. The Garbergs tang extends into a pommel. All of the above differences are minimal, outside of the full tang. Theres not one situation Ive been in where Id be hesitant to grab by Kansbol instead of my Garberg. Would I ultimately choose the Kansbol over the Garberg if performance and features alone where my primary concerns? No, the Garberg is still a superior knife. Would I choose the Kansbol over the Garberg if performance in conjunction with price were my primary concerns? Yes. The fact is, this knife is about 90% of what the Garberg is at around half the premium. Bottom line: In most situations, the Kansbol is all the Morakniv youll ever need. 5 stars

I love Mora knives, most however only fit one way in the sheath. Us leftys have to wear and draw the knife backwards - common with many fixed blade knives. This Mora fits in the sheath either way so you can wear it correctly on your left side. The blade has a dual grind. The back half works well for heavy carving, and the front half works well for slicing (including food prep). It is sharp right out of the box. The sheath is plastic with a leather loop to wear it on your belt. The knife spine is a true 90* so it works as a striker for any ferrocerium rod. The handle is composite plastic (2 types) which fits the hand well and gives good grip. I use this knife several times a week and it always does what I ask of it. For the price point it may be the best knife on the market. If you dont expect it to split oak trees in half, you can hardly go wrong with this knife.
