Review on Morakniv Kansbol: Premium Sandvik Stainless Steel Fixed Blade Knife for Ultimate Performance by James Dominick

This knife is a beast. From my $100+ knife collection, this is by far the best. When I first bought this I was put off by the odd sanding patterns. However, after a few minutes of work with whetstones and a belt, I quickly achieved a mirror finish and a razor edge. This knife is extremely handy and I hardly got tired even when cutting a 5 inch thick hard maple trunk into a 120 wooden spoon. This knife kept a sharp edge despite light blows, chopping and extensive carving. after a few more steps and the knife reached the razor blade easily again. I would even recommend it to Garberg (fantastic knife) for its low price, amazing ergonomics and similar steel quality. It's also because this knife should be paired with a chopper/ Axe/axe and not alone for heavy woodwork like Garberg, and the split shank is more than enough for the tasks this knife is meant to do. Also, the flat grind to the top half of the knife is ideal for finer work and cutting, but with that it withstands occasional abuse. In some ways, this blade is better than Garberg's, which costs twice as much. The scabbard is of good quality but made of leather. one would be good.
