and also picked up a stainless option for comparison:

Mora Stainless Knife ~ Outdoor Companion
Mora Stainless Knife ~ Outdoor Companion ~ Made in Östnor, Sweden · Made of high quality stainless steel ~ 4-1/8" long sharp fixed blade ~ 3/32" thick blade ~ High friction grip patterned handle ~ Mora 11827 ~ 7391846010128hardwickandsons.com
If anyone has an opinion on stainless v carbon steel I'm interested. Carbon steel seems easier to touch up as it dulls but obviously stainless wont corrode while covered in blood etc
The Moras must be a pretty high carbon Stainless Steel as I've seen a few my friends have put away dirty and they rust pretty quickly, I clean mine pronto whenever I use it and it still looks new.I got this one:

You nailed it. High carbon will usually trump stainless for sharpness, edge retention, and ease of sharpening, but they do require some maintenance to prevent corrosion. Getting blood off immediately is the key to keeping them looking good. Surface rust can be removed with the same pads used to remove tarnish from silver. Heavier rust can be removed by soaking in vinegar and scotch brite pad.The Moras must be a pretty high carbon Stainless Steel as I've seen a few my friends have put away dirty and they rust pretty quickly, I clean mine pronto whenever I use it and it still looks new.
I've got both carbon and stainless, I prefer using the carbon day to day as it feels sharper, but the stainless is great for just leaving in the truck or boat.
I use the same stove, but there is some data that suggests it probably isn’t the best option for efficiency or weight (on longer trips). Love it for overnighters and weekend tripsBRS 3000T camping stove. $17 bucks, amazingly light weight, works as well as anything out there. I'm sure it's a knock off of something, but I've got three of them tucked away, and one of them goes with me on backpacking trips or hunting trips.

Tinfoil or a cheap wind deflector does this nicely depending on how windy it is. I’ve had the BRS for almost 7 years and still boils water like the day I bought it. May take a few minutes longer than an MSR or Jetboil but I don’t think you can beat it for the price.The BRS does well if it's not windy or if you can keep it protected from the wind.
I'm a knife junkie. I don't even know how many I have nor where they all are. I've been using my Outdoor Edge more and more but I do use fixed blades also. I'm a flip-flopper.Anyone find they would rather use a cheap replaceable blade knife over a high quality knife? I have a few Benchmade knife’s and idk I’m always worried of losing them. And those replaceable blades like the outdoor edge r cheap and good
So anyone find themselves going from one to the other?
Yes. Pretty much use the havalons for everything. Orange and sharp and not expensive.Anyone find they would rather use a cheap replaceable blade knife over a high quality knife?
