I really like the scandi grinds, easy to keep sharp, and I find that the mora´s I own keep their edge incredibly long, especially in the light of the abuse I submit them to... Ehm, you threw one away, on purpose...?

That mora knife is good, that edge grind makes it great for slicing. I tend to prefer standard blades, though, as I often do some detailed stuff with the tip, like splinter removal.
In fact I tend to get a lot of splinters

Many people throw away old mora knives when they become dull as they consider them junk due to their low price. It`s just the chosen few who know they are worth resharpening.

havent got cut seriously with a knife for a long time, soo no

that was me

i carve with a mora SL-2. cut down 3/4 of an inch down. didn't feel it at all till an hour later (might just be the stitches though) it was definitely one sharp knife.

There's no break, there's no end, just a-living on;&&Wide awake, with a smile, going on and on.
