sharpening a mora would be as simple as just setting the main bevel flat then just grinding on a stone?

played with an opinel as a kid.
To be clear both the mora and opinel are good knives. however they are inexpensive for a reason.
The mora has a lousy sheath, the steels not great, but they are good value for the money

i'll take sharpness over indestructibility any day.

Why settle for one quality when you can have both. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

yea i know i figured as much.
though i figure besides the S5 i have in the car there would be no harm in tossing in a mora or two.

I really loved the mini kit that i forgot who posted with the maxped. cocoon pouch...so sweet.

it just occurred to me that i can replace all the shitty kitchen knives my parents have in this house with moras...

ugly but im sure theyd laugh at being used as kitchen knives... ill just have to be sure to keep em coated with olive oil...

One good thing about a mora, you can throw them in a bunch of kits for fairly cheap and they will work fairly well
