If I’m understanding correctly, you don’t like liner locks on knives but you should give the Ti-Lite a go.

Such weird sheaths !?!! I had been looking at these when they came out but had no clue the sheaths were so strange (bad). Kind of on a bit of a cold steel boycott the now anyway but thanks for the video !

Love your Videos. Greetings from Germany

But either one are easy to sharpen

Mora carbon black blade it seems to be full tang and thickness is nice but cost a bit more

3:25 ...... yep it's my pecker...😂😂😂

Mora's own website agrees with your calipers, the blade is 2.5mm thick. There's also a Companion Heavy Duty, which is 3.2mm thick and costs 50% more. If you (for some reason?) need the full tang, there is the Garberg, which is also 3.2mm and is available with Mora's "multi-mount". Both are sturdier than "traditional" Mora knives, which are 2.0mm. Check out the Basic 546 for a modern interpretation, or the Classic 2F for a...well, classic version of the Companion.

I Love Mine Too 😊

I think what appeals to Becker knives is how fun they are to mod. Bushcrafters love to customize their knives and these are great for that. I wrapped the grip, sharpened a tip of the false edge for better penetration, removed the serrations from the thumb ramp. I'm going to make a leather sheath for mine. Yep, inflation sucks.

You won’t get upset if you lose, destroy or damage a Mora. That’s why I love them. And so easy to maintain.

I've never seen anyone throw a Mora Companion into a target before. Well done!😅 Speaking of throwing, I've been thinking about getting a few inexpensive Esenihc outdoor knives to use in that capacity to see how they perform as dedicated throwing knives are generally frowned upon if not outright prohibited in some areas. :) Yeah, the scandi grind bites into wood, but does not like striking bamboo too much. :)

I can't find anything wrong with a mora. Except the sheath (im lefthanded). As far as the knife goes is a great time tested design. Instead of mora i now use Hultafor OK4 it's a couple dollars more but a better sheath. Lately ive been on a puukko trend. I just bought the BPS Aura. I believe they are delivering in by row boat and bicycle. I hope it is worth the wait. Ive never used N690 . Great video as always 👍

My absolute favorite is the Voyager Vaquero XL serrated. But I never sharpen it. Is only for self-defense.And I live in Germany. Unfortunately I'm not politically correct Lynn 😅😉🫡

It took me years to drink the Mora koolaid but since then I've bought 3. The 511 basic with carbon takes an amazing edge and is my go to carver. The pro s with stainless is a very comfortable edc. It can be carried on belt or in pocket. Best of all Moras don't scare people when you use them. They present as a common tool while being able to provide security if needed.

MADE in CHINA...I'll pass

I've only seen a black bladed version on the xl espada. If you've seen the large with a black blade can I ask where please?

Just ordered one for myself. I have 2 kukris from condor knives and 3 folding kukris from coldsteel knives and I think this new 5 inch traditional style kukri from Nepal is going to be great. I'm also looking at the pocket kukri from the kukri house. As a LEO and a edged weapons instructor I can tell you that the kukri even on a smaller scale is a game changer in a defensive role. Those snap cuts that you talked about are huge in real edged weapon defense and that deep belly will render horrific results on your attacker. That's why the coldsteel rajah 1 an 2 folders are excellent for defensive carry. This was a great video and helped me make my decision to go ahead and purchase one. Just for the record, off duty I carry one if not both my condor kukris on my person every day. Are they large yes do they conceal well, no. But with a little imagination you can accomplish conceal carry. Because I carry a concealed firearm, I wear a cover shirt so concealing a large kukri is possible. Do i mind the weight, not really but then I'm used to carrying extra weight. can the weight of the items be uncomfortable, yes but there not supposed to be comfortable. They are supposed to be comforting. Sorry for the long post. Again thank you for this video.

Another great review, of a knife that I have been thinking about for quite some time. So thanks ! I have been collecting Cold Steel for many years, and more recently the Spanish made Knife Brands. Muela, Joker, and Cudeman. I have spent way to much, way to fast lol.... But, the Buffalo Hunter has caught my eye. I'd prefer a full guard, vs. the half guard, and perhaps a little heavier. Yes, I like a well built, heavier knife. As you showed with the SR1 Lite, it may be called lite, but it is heavy duty. Thanks again !

Cant here ya han

Tern ya volume up cant here ya

Can the blade be turned around in the sheath for left hand carry?

Some videos, you just have to see more than once... Like this one!!!

i like the grip.

Shouldve went with the trailmaster

GSM is Horrible.

The Tanto XL is the best of all the voyager series.

Man that’s cool!

Fail, I don’t see a Klingon bat’leth in that collection.

Just ordered mine $58.56 from Amazon on Prime days deals

Man those are cool looking! A pirate knife on roids!

Beautiful knife. How many inches wide is the blade? How many inches long is the blade? How many inches long is the knife handle?

I loved your reviews of the APOC swords! Would be excited to see the APOC Sirupate reviewed! I think the longer and more graceful blade profile might lend itself to better martial applications. Anyways, Cheers!

You edc an Espada? You sir, are a badass! Subbed! I will pick this one up as a daily carry reliable folder. As a self defense knife, I would say: There are better knives out there more suited to that task. Ex. Sallywag Tactical: MDV Plus One, Fisher Knives: Beckwith Covert, Tops: El Pionero, Colonel Blades: LowVz, and even Colonel Folder. TKell is another great brand of Tactical knives. I have a few. All knives I carry (except the Beckwith Covert) that one is on the list. Am I a badass? No. But, you aren't gonna take me without a fight!

Great review as always, Mike. I had a Peacemaker 2 for a year or so, but the bottom part of the handle tore off from general wear. Overall I liked it for what it was. Do you own any folders with a Wave feature? I recently purchased a Cara Cara 2 and it might not be the most robust knife that I own, but it is without a doubt the fastest and easiest to carry. These urban combative knife fighting systems recommend that with a wave feature, you should reverse the pocket clip, so you are drawing the knife forward into the palm in a blade down, edge in grip, as opposed to the standard wave feature draw, where it is dangling from the fingertips upon drawing. Made the biggest difference IMO. The draw and strike become one fluid motion. I have found that practicing with a wave featured knife becomes like Japanese Iaido. Practicing and perfecting the speed and efficacy of the draw/strike, made into an art form. I am really enjoying it.

Good review cold steel needs to be listening

I'm not surprized that the III did not like its encounter with the bamboo pole. If you stick to a test procedure regardless of blade geometry, you will sooner or later run into knives that can't take the abuse. Glad you were able to mend the edge. :)

California law question about Fixed blade knife, Is it Legal to have a fix blade knife in a car( Glove compartment)?

I'd also be interested in your thoughts on the Cold Steel counter tac

Check out the kobun!

Please DO do a review on that Work Sharp Guided Field Sharpener (I assume?)! It seems like a nifty piece of kit. 🙂

The Ontario Alpha has that same flat grip. Unique feel compared to most other knives.

The grind and thickness reminds me of my Mora Kansbol. Thanks for the video.

I love this knife ❤😊

I always thought Bowie knives were stupid (I was always a sword guy) then a friend got me a mossy oak overwatch Bowie for a gift, as a new guy to knives that big I instantly understood the value of a big ass knife, soon after I bought the mossy oak wood Bowie to get a more traditional looking Bowie and started looking into Bowie history, origins and fighting styles . I was fascinated, Now I'm obsessed with the things and saving up for a higher quality knife and a gladius, lol. Now I think Every man needs at least one good Bowie knife in my opinion, your channel and a few others have really educated me on the matter. I just wanted to say thank you for your part in that learning process.

Thank you for this review,I just bought mine from Chicago Knife Works because they almost always have the lowest prices ,I paid approximately $96 including shipping and Illinois awful 11% tax ,others are charging far more,keep the Cold Steel reviews coming please and thank you again 👍

Awesome video, wish I saw it last night lol will definitely be looking into the higher end one.

Made for war knife

Great review! I’m a content creator as well. I just bought this knife and will be doing testing on it myself. Great work, brother!

I'm here again to watch this a second time and 😂

Your reviews are excellent. Keep them coming.
