Moras are great, although I always have to reprofile and sharpen the blade.... they come pretty blunt in my experience. The handles are so good, though, and the steel is great.
but I'm more into Swiss Army Knives for the most part (and a few fixed-blades and misc folders). I find I need the utility of the other tools far more often than a knife
My moras have been shaving sharp, latest one was hair poppin. I carry a leather man slot of the time, but don’t want to skin and process a deer with a 3 inch blade.
Unless it’s my tiny boker skinner. Love that tiny thing
the Mora Companion and Basic stainless are excellent. The grips fit my hand perfectly. My only complaint is that there's a small gap between the blade and handle on either side with the basic... I want to fill it somehow because I don't want water or food to get in along there
I am gonna be buying a bunch of camping gear this winter for spring camping
As a Victorinox Swiss Army Knife collector, I highly recommend anyone interested to look at the Farmer X model. It's by far my favorite for outdoors/camping use as the tools are much thicker and tougher than the plastic scaled models.
The late Gen. Chuck Yeager recently passed away. Apart from being well known for his history-making in the world of flight, being the first pilot to break the sound barrier in flight, he was also a big outdoorsman who regularly did weeks-long camping and fishing trips. He was known to carry only his Victorinox Executive for these trips as his knife.
@🅱øg Wizard are you planning to be hiking very far with it? Or close to a vehicle?
Deep in the woods
The car will be about a mile away
Do you have a good pack? Campfire.com has ran some good deals on mystery ranch packs lately
Yeah good enough. My back is fucked up atm once I get to the chiropractor hauling stiff shouldnt be too bad
I have to be vigilant with my back. I found that stretching my quads and hip flexors helped immensely with my lower back pain
I been in 2 bad atv accidents so I have to be careful with mine. Every so often I need a tune up from the chiropractor
Yikes. Well if there’s anything you want to discuss about hiking or camping let me know. Always like trading tips
Its mainly when I wear a full pack, one of my shoulders start hurting like fuck. I know my neck is not 100% fixed
Its constantly cracking
Well a good pack that’a correctly adjusted going a long way for that.
Keep that weight off the shoulders and on the waist
Small but I was out for meat this morning

Man I wish I could do that. Just leave my home in the morning, casually hunt something and eat it back home
What’s preventing you? Real question
Living in a city, not having a car, my own restrictive and covid-fearing family, not being a member of a hunting club...
There's so many things that I hope I could change one day
One step at a time fren. What area do you live
Zagreb City, Croatia
This is a pretty impressive piece of gear. Combining it with an actual plate carrier with two level 4 plates. You basically be a juggernaut.
Who knows what channel this goes in. But any of you invested in precious metals? Any suggestions?
(Before you ask, I’m already invested in copper, lead, and brass)
I’m thinking of getting more silver and some gold.
it could be worthwhile but I'm not sure... probably more so in a restart of society, but if you're worried about during a collapse of some kind, I'm not sure how valuable it will be so long as people need actual supplies and food
^
as with any preparation, it depends a lot on what you're preparing for and what you're already prepared for
preserved food and water is going to be worth more than gold in the initial days after the collapse
I plan on surviving the apocalypse by selling 'instant water, just add water' to liberals in the city.
nah, chop up some pipe off of whatever, sell them as water sticks, just stick into the ground and get the ground water, and trade for a few cans of food
