## Description

And a finger guard provides additional safety. Included with the knife is a hard plastic Combi-Sheath, which provides a quick-connect feature for attaching a second knife and sheath. Morakniv has been manufacturing the highest-quality knives in Mora, Sweden since 1891. Mora Craftline Series includes sharp, durable, high-quality utility knives suitable for construction, trade and industrial professionals. The Morakniv Craftline Basic 511 Utility Knife blade is 0.08 inches (0.2 cm) thick, and 3.6 inches (9.1 cm) long, with a total length of 8.25 inches (20.9 cm); weighs 3.9 ounces (110 g). Limited lifetime manufacturer’s warranty.

Review: Great company and you can’t beat the quality for the price - Razor sharp out of the box. The kydex holster is snug and just tight enough that it stays out but is easy to deploy. I bought this to attach to my larger camp knife sheath. That way I have both knives at the ready for any bush crafting needs. The small peg at the front of the case makes for a good tie down point to fix it to the sheath of my bk-5. I also own the garberg. It’s a bit more pricey, but by no means expensive. I’ve owned it for years and it has stood the test and then some. This company makes amazing knives for all walks and uses of life and the prices are so low, it really doesn’t make much sense. Not Chinese junk.
Review: Great Knife! - This is a great knife and is made with great quality. The price is more than reasonable. It comes very sharp, and with a sheath. I have purchased about ten of these knives and have given many of the away to friends who needed a good utility knife. I have a large hand and the grip is more than adequate.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the difference between this blade and the "morakniv companion fixed blade outdoor knife with carbon steel blade, military green, 4.1-inch"?**
A: Difference 1) the blade is about .5 inches shorter2) the blade is a little thinner (.02 inches thinner)3) No rubber on the handle  4) the sheath looks a little bit different 5) about $5 cheaper Same1) blade steel 2) sharpness 3) ratail tang (not full tang but rather 3/4 of a full tang)4) both are great blades

**Q: Does Morakniv make sheaths for left handers? I'd be willing to pay extra for a left handed sheath.**
A: I’m not sure what their offering are for lefties however I am a lefty and I prefer this sheath on my left and when I draw the knife it is reverse draw and defense ready.  If I am not in defense situation when I draw I simply change the knife position in my hand and whittle away. For what it’s worth.

**Q: My son is left-handed. Is this beveled on both sides?**
A: It's a symmetrical handle and blade, so it will work for either hand.  (Not that I'm sure it would matter if the blade was beveled to the opposite side anyway???)

**Q: will this knife float if dropped in the water?**
A: I put water in sink, put knife in and it sank to the bottom. The case did float. Put knife in case and the whole thing sank.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ BUY WITHOUT HESITATION! It’s a Morakniv! You could safely ignore ALL negative reviews.
*by A***R on June 21, 2019*

Morakniv 511 and 546 are both great buys! Don’t expect to find anything with a better value within the same price range unless it’s another Morakniv! Mora 511 could take a lot of abuse and misuse but it is not indestructible. The studs inside the scabbard holding the knife in place will worn out eventually too. However, Mora 511 is a dirt cheap super knife that will spoil you provided that you treat it properly and know it’s limitations. Reading negative reviews on Mora 511 carbon steel knife is sad but oddly entertaining. Carbon steel is NOT stainless steel. Carbon steel is harder than stainless steel and you could sharpen carbon steel knives at a lower sharpening angle than stainless steel knives. Meaning: You could squeeze more sharpness out of carbon steel knives and still expect the edge to last. But, ALL carbon steel knives will stain and rust or even pit if not handled properly. Luckily, forced patina will take care of this problem and there’re tons of instructions online. You could give the knife a forced patina by using either vinegar, mustard, ketchup, Tabasco sauce, steak sauce, lime, lemon, or even potato! All my Mora 511’s came in plain packages. They all came with a rough spine as stated on Mora’s site. The rough spine will have rounded corners so they won’t scratch your hand AND ferrocerium rod fire starters. You must sand/grind/file down the spine and give it a sharp 90 degree angle before you could use the knife’s spine to scrape ferro rods. Sanding down the spine could be more time consuming than many expected because steels on all Morakniv knives won’t be that soft. All Morakniv 511’s will shave hair right out of the package, BUT you might or might not be shaving with the knife’s true edge. Unlike high end knives, the knife will come un-stropped and the knife will have a rope edge (or burr created by sharpening) on the blade. The rope edge is like a microscopic saw which cuts and slices very efficiently but it won’t stay on the blade for too long. The burr will be removed through use and you’ll be left with the knife’s true edge. Since the knife wasn’t chemically sharpened and the machines only finished 90% of the job, how good the true edge is will depend on whoever finished the edge at the factory and your luck. There will be Morakniv 511’s that will continue to cut and slice like a dream after the burr was removed but that’s like hitting the jackpot. Feeling the knife dulling after some use is normal. If you’re lucky, you will be able to bring the edge back with just some stropping. If you are unlucky, you’ll get that almost all or nothing feel once the burr was gone. The knife will no longer slice paper like it used to because the fine, polished edge won’t bite into paper as efficiently. But, it will still remain sharp enough to crank out feather sticks after feather sticks. The rope edge is comparable to a toothy edge. The true edge hidden underneath the burr is a fine, polished edge which will cut a little differently. After all, the sharpening at the factory is just a very good mass produced factory edge that’s not 100% finished; the factory edge got many woo’s and ah’s and it impressed many people already. By the way, I felt that it is easier to find a good edge on Moras with wooden handles than plastic handled models. Even though Mora 511 left the factory pretty sharp, a good sharpening is still needed. Sharpening knives with a scandi grind like Mora 511, is both easy and difficult. It is easy because you don’t have to worry about the sharpening angle much. You just lay the sharpening side flat on the stone and follow the factory angle. It is difficult because it will be noticeably more time consuming compared to sharpening knives with an auxiliary edge made out of similar material; the surface being grinded/polished is much bigger and you need to take out a lot more metal. Sharpening the knife for the very first time will be rather time consuming because you need to polish away all those machine marks left by factory grinding. Fixing a chip will be painfully time consuming unless you have a wet grinding wheel or some type of sharpening/sanding machine. Many people would just give the knife an auxiliary edge at this point; some will simply buy another Mora since it’s so inexpensive. If you have never learned how to properly sharpen a knife with a fine, mirror polished edge freehand or you don’t have any mechanical device that will help you sharpen the knife, it is advised that you learn how to sharpen knives freehand (with dollar store knives) or invest in a nice set of sharpening device first. Scandi grind knives aren’t that beginner friendly when it comes to sharpening. Stropping is a must too if you want to enjoy the knife’s full potential. Once properly sharpened and stropped, a Mora 511 will have an almost surgical knife like sharpness that will outlast many knives under $200. Like all knives with a scandi grind, always give the knife a maintenance sharpening before it becomes dull. You will save a lot of time on sharpening this way. I’ve never tried to reduce the sharpening angle on a Mora 511 simply because I knew it will take forever without machines. There’s no need to increase the knife’s sharpness at the cost of the knife’s edge retention anyway. The sharpening angle on Mora 511 is either optimal or very close to optimal already.
