Mora did an excellent job on this knife. Your destruction test certifies that this knife will hold up to all Bushcraft tasks as well as some survival uses. Can’t go wrong with Mora!
@@insanodeathguy2160 How often do you plan on striking a brick with your knife in real life though? Mayor's tests are to push things to the absolute extreme, further than you would realistically ever use something.
First video of yours I've seen. At first I thought OMG. I'd never use a knife like that but glad there is someone out there showing us what the limits are. Thanks man.
I must admit, when I first saw one of your "destruction" reviews I thought you had a screw loose ... But now I find myself checking your channel to see if the Mora Garberg (I'm thinking about buying one) passed your crazy tests, which have become some sort of standard for me to check how well a particular knife can hold up to them. So thank you very much for making these videos, and testing these knives right to (and over) their limits, so that we don't have to. Really appreciate it, keep up the good work mate. Greetings from Belgium (and my apologies for any grammar mistakes). P.S.: So, the Mora Garberg, despite his "small/thin" size, seemed to pass your tests quite well, would you recommend one ?
Yes, the Garberg is a very strong knife, perfect for Mora collectors ! I am glad you enjoy the tests, and I hope that you get some good information on which knives pass or fail the test. Howdy from Texas ! YeeHaaw ! :) Mayor Fuglycool
@@MayorFuglycools Yes I have to agree with you on that. I have the Mora Garberg carbon and I also have the mora Kansbol, along side that I have the Mora outdoor wood carving knife and last but not least my trusty Companion. I’ve held each one of these side by side extensively and the companion feels like it was created to fit my hands. I love it but I love the Garberg to.
Great review Mayor! The Garberg held up nicely considering its small size and weight. We've decided to extend the special coupon code to apply to all of our in-stock knives, including the Mora Garberg and Companion, as well as our line of TOPS Knives. Be sure to enter the code in your shopping cart to get the special offer and snag some awesome knives at significantly discounted prices. And remember, safety first!
Awesome thanks for watching ! I will let my buddies on the forums know about the extended coupon, and thanks for sharing the savings with all of the Fuglycool Fans ! Safety first my friend ! :) Mayor Fuglycool
i can say a few thing for the ones who do not know anything about knives. testing a knife includes 3 main points, sharpness, flexibility and durability. to test a knife people can choose different ways. for example somebody can use a machine to bend a knife 90 degrees, other one can stick it into a wood and can step on it. this is not discovery channel or etc, this is a youtube channel and this guy wants to produce something different and new. he can test durability or sharpness in many other way. actually i appreciate him and after this video i've decided to buy a garberg.
This was your most difficult vid for me to watch, I really want one of these when I can afford it. I was not surprised one bit by the edge damage, Mora knives (scandi grinds) are built for wood craft. To see this knife actually survive your test is absolutely rediculous, I'm definitely getting one now.
I am surprised that it held together, and it was one tough blade :) Remember to use the code I gave in the video for a discount on the Garberg. Thanks for watching friend ! Mayor Fuglycool
I think you have put that knife through 2 life times of hard labor" And it still has not let you down. Cool vid' and a awesome knife ! Thanx for sharing
Moras have to be the best value in the knife market. They're inexpensive without having cut corners on quality. I have a few. The Scandi's are so good at carving.
In a world of cheap knock-off steels, and dishonest marketing, its really great that there is someone like you, who just gets the knife and tests it to destruction. You save us all a lot of hassle and mistakes. +1 sir.
i have several moras and a martinni...kept in the kitchen knife drawer and used almost daily for food prep--they're handy and sharp when i don't need too much length. the kansbol and mora basic cut tomatoes and onions like they were designed for it. love your testing!
I was working at a scout camp last summer and a few leaders had this knife. Doesnt take too long to sharpen and holy cow it holds a great edge! I spent a long time stropping it just to get a perfect edge on it. One I really want to buy, even more now with your video!
A very fair test I'd say. Much better than a lot of other so called destruction tests. I'm a huge fan of mora and as painful as it might be to watch, testing like this really does show what a knife is capable of. I also like that it's not a test to ultimate failure but rather a series of tests to see if it is up to the standard. Might have been good to split the handle open to see what went on there at the end. Overall a great video.
Another great review. About time you got a new ammo can. I am thinking of getting one along with a brick and a concrete block to lend a bit of authenticity as I sit in my recliner practicing "not trying this at home."
Thanks Mayor, another interesting test. I like the fact that you do the same tests to EVERY knife regardless of size. It gives a good perspective to blade toughness. Are they all designed to chop? NO. Are they designed to puncture steel?? NO.. But if they can do that and come through you tests intact they can more than handle what they were designed for. Thank you
Well, I am not actually "knife fighting." To be honest, it is just a handling portion, nothing more. I just like to get a good feel on what a blade is like in the hand. Thanks for watching friend :) Mayor Fuglycool
Hi Mayor. Great video. Thinking of getting one of these. Really good to know that it passes so many of the stress tests so this is really useful. I agree with you regarding the blade length, a 5 to 6 inch blade would make the knife near perfect.
It did hold up,,,and it has one good thing to back it up and that's the Mora name,,,even though I don't own eneny of them there reputation for be extremely sharp and useful with bush crafters and this test shows that the full tang version is a good one,I like 6" knife blades,,,but that Mora is tough to be so short,,,You put it through its paces and it came out okay,,,good test but I like the SRK,,,just a little bite more,,,Thanks for the testing and as always Take Care
Hi I enjoy your tests, I've seen a lot of them but I am looking for one of my favourite knives the Tops Armageddon. Can you do a full test on that one some time? Thanks take care
MAYOR, I noticed that people use that 90 degree method for scraping, I tried a smaller angel and it scrapes wood and whatever fire steel you care to use much better. SAFETY FIRST MY FRIEND.
poor mora. everybody complained so they capitulated and gave us a full tang knife. however, it's stainless steel, and evidently, a little brittle. personally I have one of their carbon steel companions and it's a damned beat, the lack of full tang has in no way hurt its performance.
you need to re anchor your playset, I mean, testing framework. I was slightly concerned during the pull up part that it was going to tip over. good review
Yes, the Jungle Jim is starting to fall ! I have been trying to repair it over the years, and the rain does not help LOL Thanks for watching, glad you love it ! Mayor Fuglycool
Do you recondition the knives after you test them? If so, have you ever had one that just wouldn't come back to like new condition ( like it would not take a good edge again)?
Hi, I wanted to know from your experience whether this 14C28N steel is really great as it is said for knives to use in nature? Is better than 440C or VG10? Let me know what you think, a greetings Michele
Great video Mayor! I find the handle a bit slick, too, and a bit uncomfortable in longer term shaving tasks. (I have a review on my channel too if anyones interested in more Garber vids)
I'm like that too. Some are so funny that they're worth watching. You did see the video of the fat guy showing his 'Roman Gladius'? Will Keith I think is his name ruclips.net/video/sQIDa17Fw5E/видео.html The Fat Swerdsman.
14C28N is a horribly brittle steel in my experience. I've had several blades with that steel chip out on me just from cutting mild materials like hemp rope or vehicle carpet. I'll be buying the carbon version of the Garberg
Best knife test vid I’ve ever seen. Much better than the ten year old child unbox and review vids. The others talk and maybe cut up some shipping box or paper, but a brick !Mora should put you in the R and D department
Scandi grinds are very different from saber grinds. Scandi grinds have no secondary bevel (or a 0-degree bevel) making it one of the-the most sharpest(or at least best wood carving)blades which are why you see Scandi grinds(preferably chisel grinds) on chisels.
also,you may want to use a nice river rock to help the tool pass through an object , hit the back of the blade while blade is in contact with wood.use the same rock,about the size of an orange, to test all of the blades.SAFETY first my friends.
Safety first my friend. I believe that the use of a rock or a branch to help split wood is called battoning . thanks for all the Great videos.SFMF. I'll be back.
hey bud. would be of course very interesting to know, if the blade actually really broke. can you cut off the handles to see if a crack or break appeared?
I enjoyed the stress test video, not that I will ever put my blade thru anything of that manner but it's good to know if it comes to any situation which might require it ones options aren't limited 👍😃👌
I guess the Garberg is a no go. I expected better but when I saw the blade chips, thats it. Another big problem for me is not having a guard. I have experienced knives “biting” me when there isn’t a guard.
Been cruisin' for the Garberg for a while. Now I see how the handle separated from the tang , I'm not so sure , especially with battoning over time. What say you ? Would it hold up over time you think ? Oh , nothing mean , but safety first means putting the gloves on first ,lol. !
If you batton with the Garberg, it will separate over time. I really don't recommend the Garberg as a battoning knife, as 4" of blade really does not give you much area to batton. I suggest a larger knife around 7"-12", full tang construction, as a battoning blade. Thanks for watching friend ! :) Mayor Fuglycool
David. I always find it funny how the haters react to the Mayor's content. They can't seem to grasp that the objective is not to see how much the knife can break and destroy. The objective is to see how much the knife can endure before breaking. Its an endurance test for the knife. Most knives that pass are some tough blades.
I own 1 blade from Morakniv, and its the $10 blade that comes with plastic sheath. All I can say, its not a bad blade for the task I use it for at work.
Scandi grinds are fragile on anything much harder than wood, so you'd expect the Garberg to roll and chip under these conditions. I'm sure it excels at most bushcraft tasks, and even at this higher price point it seems great value for money, but the laws of physics have to kick in at some point.
oi mate, what about the handle and the possible blade breakage. you removed it and looked into it? i think thats a very interesting question to all possible customeres and the quality of the knife, so please get back to us in this.
The blade tang is intact, and the blade is not compromised. The handle plastic did "push" away from the metal tang, but it is so minute that it is not an issue in my eyes. Thanks for watching ! Mayor Fuglycool
+Mayor Fuglycool Awesome. Ive only had folding knives, but i am looking into my first fixed blade. Ill get the gerber strongarm or the ontario usn mk3. I considered the bear grylls knife, but i dont want a china made blade.
In my op, the gerber or mk3 will do you well, but the steel on the Strongarm will last longer. The stainless on the ontario is good for wet environments. Thanks for watching ! Mayor Fuglycool

I guess the Garberg is a no go. I expected better but when I saw the blade chips, thats it. Another big problem for me is not having a guard. I have experienced knives “biting” me when there isn’t a guard.
try the spine instead of the blade for making sparks - works like crazy
and saves the blade
When you do the pull up test, slip a kevlar glove over the blade as well as wearing one. Handle side isn't as much of a threat.
yes
Been cruisin' for the Garberg for a while. Now I see how the handle separated from the tang , I'm not so sure , especially with battoning over time. What say you ? Would it hold up over time you think ? Oh , nothing mean , but safety first means putting the gloves on first ,lol. !

Scandi grinds are fragile on anything much harder than wood, so you'd expect the Garberg to roll and chip under these conditions. I'm sure it excels at most bushcraft tasks, and even at this higher price point it seems great value for money, but the laws of physics have to kick in at some point.
Mora knives are good, but Marttiini knives from Finland are great! I would like to see a comparison test between the two.
oi mate, what about the handle and the possible blade breakage. you removed it and looked into it? i think thats a very interesting question to all possible customeres and the quality of the knife, so please get back to us in this.
The blade tang is intact, and the blade is not compromised. The handle plastic did "push" away from the metal tang, but it is so minute that it is not an issue in my eyes. Thanks for watching !

+Mayor Fuglycool Awesome. Ive only had folding knives, but i am looking into my first fixed blade. Ill get the gerber strongarm or the ontario usn mk3. I considered the bear grylls knife, but i dont want a china made blade.
In my op, the gerber or mk3 will do you well, but the steel on the Strongarm will last longer. The stainless on the ontario is good for wet environments. Thanks for watching !

The edge rolled because of the Scandinavian grind, not because of the steel quality

You said it was more of a saber grind. Does that mean it does not have a true scandi?
To me it feels a lot like a saber grind, but many have commented that theirs are scandi. Thanks for watching friend !

Okay, my vote is for the brick; I'm dumping the Garberg and carrying a brick in my bugout bag. Thank you for the video.
