Life would be boring without an heartful debate now and then!

Thank you very much for you professional insight.

Obviously, a true professional would never settle with something less than the perfect tool for the job. A chef's knife would certainly be the first choice in an ideal setting, i.e. my home, but the blade I'll use would be toted around for hours in a cramped space, and I would like something a bit less bulky and heavy, that can also be used for other purposes as well, if the need arises.

For example, during our getaways my friends and I use frequently knives to cut long stretches of heavy duty plastic wrap, the type that comes in those industrial rolls used to wrap pallets. We combine them side by side, then tie them to a balcony on one end and a fence on the other, to make a makeshift, waterproof roof for our courtyard during rainy days. It works wonderfully!
We use our pocket knives for this job, but I think a Mora would slice through the heavy duty plastic like butter.
