I figured I’d give this chisel knife a try, since it’s not like I use this particular knife for its intended purpose anyway but rather as a general purpose sharpish piece of steel. I’m already carrying a folding knife and a Leatherman, so I don’t need a third knife with a pointy tip.
Edit: 6 months later - I've used the chisel end a ton. Far more useful in my work compared to a regular carpenter's knife.
That chisel style could honestly be more effective than a regular blade for a lot of work related uses. Please post an update after a bit on how its worked out!
Cool! It's like a small buster sword!
Congrats on the new knife.
I would totally attempt to revive the old one as well, just for grins. Give that sumbitch a grind on the belt sander and you'll probably be good to go... Albeit with a blade that'll be quite a bit shorter than when it was new!
How many Moraknives do you have now? I ended up with about 5 or so after some sales went on the last few years.
I keep a stainless steel one in the kitchen for when I can't find a good sharp knife, and it always cuts
Sweet. I love Mora! I've got one with the wood handle.
Moraknil is the bomb. Got the water knife version, and it was only like $20! Round end, serrated blade, made for cutting line, even if it's wrapped around something soft like a seal or you. Bonus: Had a bright orange pommel and floats handle up. Found it a couple of times after dropping it in the water.
Is the blade side a single bevel as well, also is the chisel bevel the same angle as the blade?
Always happy to see a Mora.
Wow the one you're retiring has seen some things for sure! Another great example of quality not needing to cost a lot.
