MSRP is $129.95, but the knife can be found on Amazon for about $67. The blade is DLC coated high carbon, but I could not find the precise steel designation anywhere. Also, it does not come with the typical Mora molded plastic sheath, opting instead for a slender nylon sheath with a plastic insert. The Pathfinder has a comparatively beefy 1/8 inch thick blade. It is, however, a departure from the thin-bladed Moras that are very common. It has a lot of the classic Mora features - a versatile Scandi grind, a rubber over-molded handle, a partial tang, and a simple blade shape. The Mora Pathfinder is the largest, or among the largest, of the Mora knives. It was dull and chipped from years of use and it was beyond my capacity to sharpen. In order to produce more useful results I had it professionally sharpened prior to the test. In fairness, the BK-9 is more than four years old and I am the second owner. I was provided the Battle Axe and the Pathfinder as review samples. First, meet the knives: Utility Tools Battle Axe in 1095 ($175) I put them through a battery of tests I think fairly simulates how people use these knives in the real world. The purpose is to evaluate three knives, all of which use high carbon steel, of various price ranges.
This review focuses on knives that are around 7 inches or longer in blade length. If you are looking for a knife that can do some real chopping, you need to go up a few inches (and a few ounces) beyond the EDC realm. Which will slice, dice, and baton its way to the top?
We put three high-carbon steel choppers head-to-head to find the best. ‘Chopper’ knives are big, burly survival blades made to do heavy work in the wilds. Home » Knives » ‘Chopper’ Knife Shootout: Three Big Survival Blades Reviewed
