Of the ones in the photos, quite honestly the heavyweight Mora (not the standard thickness, this one's a bit heavier and the better for it) gets the most use so I have a few of those, one kept in my stalking bag.  The green handled one is my custom skinner and general bushcraft knife but in spite of the fancy pants steel that had to be specially heat treated, it doesn't keep an edge for  that long.  It's about the perfect blade shape though as my primary gralloching knife.  The accolade for the sharpest blade and the one to hold an edge the longest goes to the razor sharp Helle Harding which makes for a really good lightweight general bushcraft knife but I use it mainly as one of my fishing knives and as a back up stalking knife for more delicate cutting tasks.  The top one uses fantastic crazy-sharp Chromo-Vanadium steel and keeps a wicked edge for ages, just needing the occasional strop but is too large as a hunting knife and is really an all rounder which I use on camping trips.

Point is, I haven't yet come across the ideal one-knife-does-it-all design or steel so have a collection for different tasks.

would have to be 204 for me great with nv seated on top

Had a look he is not taking any orders for a while not suprissed though quality looking knife

S

Any body used a berni garlands bushcraft knives there is a clip on you tube looks very good Web says price start just over £200 would that be average price for a quality knife

looks a good knife what do you use to keep a good edge on it

After all my knives were stolen i recently bought a Fallkniven F1 with a 3G blade..very happy with it.

you must have been gutted how many did you have stolen was it a large collection

it must have cost a lot of money over a long time to get a collection of good quality stuff

[had a look at the ray mears site they are now £350 ( ouch )

as the title says what would you say is the best all-round bushcraft knife any pictures and how much would one exspect to pay

loads on the net i did like the look of the woodsman from Gareth Townsend but he is not tacking any orders till 2013
