Todd,
I will put them on the list of knives to bring to Kzoo.

The Bushcraft Knives have the same grip as the 2080 Triflex that I stock now. The blade will have a different profile and ,depending on the model, it may have a different sheath configuration.
What specific models are you interested in?

Chuck I was thinking a Bush craft survival to get the fire starter and heavy blade. Then I saw the fire knife. Now I am not sure and may get a fire knife and either a Bush craft or a companion HD. It all depends on my impression looking at them and handle fit for my hand. I am wondering about retention of the fire starter in both options. I am also looking at the sheath clip differences trying to figure out what to do.

It would be great to be able to see some.  

I love my companion MG I got from you. It has caused the retirement of my other fixed blades.

Sounds good Todd. I will try have some options for you to look at.
most of the bushcraft knives and the 2080 Triflex have a beefier handle compared to the companion.
Not huge but it will fill your hand very nice.
I will post when my next order comes in.
Thanks all,

Hey Todd,
I was just looking at the pics on my site and I have a side by side of the 2080 and the companion handles. Thought it might be of interest to you.

I have seen that.  It helps a little, but nothing like holding one.  I also see where the companion HD is supposed to have a larger or fuller handle than the companion.

I am still checking the options. I fissure want one of the heavier blares and now I see that the bush craft comes in both blade thicknesses.

What is the "profile ground"? I think that is the blade thickness or at lest it appears to be listed on all the thinner blades from what I can see so far.

Also, how are the stainless knives for holding an edge and sharpening compared to the carbon steel knives?

I agree, Holding is knowing for sure. I have not handled any of the HD knives yet so I can't say for sure on them. I will try to get some variations of the HD's in stock.

The "profile Ground" blades are very different grind than the other blades do. It is hard to explain but it is thinner from mid-blade to the tip. Almost like the edge grind is taken all the way to the spine for the front half of the blade.
It is hard to explain, like I said.

I think the difference between the carbon and SS blades are well known, but the Mora SS is different than other SS and it holds up very well.

Thanks for the info Chuck.  I looked at the blades on a site and just couldn't see the blade grind difference in the photos.

I have read very mixed comments on the carbon vs stainless, but generally it sounds like the stainless is reasonably comparable.

I am not finding anything like the laminated model you have. All I find is wood handles on the laminated blades.  What is the best Web site to check out the models?

I looked at all the pics I could find and none of them showed the grind very well on the Profile ground blades. I will get some and you can check it out.

The Tri-Flex that I carry is not a laminated blade, it is heat treated differently making the steel "act" like a laminated blade.

I do not think Mora offers the laminated blades in anything but a wood grip as you found out.
I can, and will be getting some Laminated blades in stock. This will be just the blade ready for adding your own handle.

Nocams, I missed your post the other day. PM sent just now. Sorry for the delay.
Thanks all,

No worries Chuck..... PM replied to bud. Not sure if you will want to stock the Model 150 or 155 filet knife ? I was thinking of getting one of each. One has a wider point than the other. My old Rapalas are worn down and I cannot sharpen them on my KME. Blade not wide enough to hold onto, tip is too flexible and bends away from the KME stone during sharpening.

Back to the tip top this morning.....  :coffee:

My son swears by his FireKnife. He never goes into the woods without it and I have seen him make some dandy fires using it.

I think it is a pretty good set up Ron. I may have to get myself one to carry.
Here are some pics,
