The Mora I posted is far more substantial - the blade and the firesteel.

Both are great values at those prices, especially considering what firesteels cost.

I love my F1, even though I've never had the chance to abuse it. It made the trip to A-stan with me and sat happily in it's sheath for 6 months. (that's a good thing, right?)

MDinana,yes that is a good thing.But it is better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it...

Dagny, after I dug up the REI item, I decided it was too good a price to pass up, and, even as we post, one is winging its way toward me. Does one ever have too many knives?

My wife asked me that question a few hundred times -- often appending "and guns" to the question. She's figured out that the safes are full and she would really notice a new one. Darn it.

CM, you need a new safe, In Your Auto! Hidden!

Wife: "Honey? Why is the trunk of your car full of long arms?"

chaosmagnet: "Uhhh, yeah. About those. They're part of my emergency kit."

No, You explain they're for traction in case of a sudden snowstorm!

And signaling! And barter! And as poorly-balanced clubs! And (if used carefully) materials to make crutches! And splints!

That'd be a big: Negatory.
