Hehehe... I have about 5 of those moras like you have on the bottom there as well as 1 plastic handled half serrted mora.... I keep 'em all sharp and ready to go.... love the simplicity....
 
I just saw a bunch of those in the "dollar plus" store for $2. each and the replacement blades (pack of 5, I think) were $1.25 .

the one i have was bought at crappy tire with there mastercraft logo on it...i saw the dollar store ones...i dont think they would last the trip in my bag getting to my hunting spot...
just noticed today at crappy tire that they having a set of these on sale..the set has a big knife like mine and also a mini model of it...
think i,ll head back tomorrow and get it:D
 
I find the pocket clip comes loose on those folding knives. The mastercraft maximum line have 3 screws holding the clip on and seems to stay on longer. Its a bit bulkier because of the extra blade storage though.
 
"To each his own, but I would never skin or dress a game animal in the water."

Yeah thanks for the hot tip.

If you had a client shoot a moose that died in that spot, you would dress it out there. Good luck moving it. Matter of fact I did a little swimming that day too.

I too got a hot tip from a fellow who has shot more moose than I'll ever see.

"Never go moose hunting without a come-along!" :cool:

OMG someone that knows what the heck one of these things is.:eek:

I went into RONA and asked for one as well as a "block and tackle" and all I got from ALL the staff there was :confused: even after I said that the block and tackles were widely used on the old sailing ships for shifting the sailing masts then i got :confused::confused::confused::confused: Then I explained what they looked like and what they're other uses are. I finally told them to google it. I went to home depot, got a similiar response.

Some of the people I asked were older than me.

Finally got them at a privately owned hardware business here in Maple Ridge.

The gas that I used to get them was rediculouse.

Must be a Western Canada thing; everyone I know in ON (who has even half a brain) knows what a come-along and a block and tackle are.

Nice moose, BTW.

Funny.....camp policy here is that if it didn't *drop* in Georgian bay, it gets dragged there as soon as possible.

It cleans the meat, but more importantly, at 2 degrees it cools it RIGHT AWAY.

10 years, well over 100 animals, and not a bad one yet tells me that it is the way to go :)
 
Mora's and a a stone, old red handled ones if you can find them. Great kives very soft easy to sharpen and touch up but always had crappy sheashes .

You go ahead and bring a come along on a back pack trip. I use what I can carry on my back. Period.

That particular moose was killed about 300 miles from any road and about 300 yards from the nearest tree or rock.

So I guess on my next trip I'll throw in a spool of cable as well. Maybe a 12000 pound winch and a couple batteries.
