Reddit mentions of Companion Black Blade

I dance alot. At first I would get blisters but after years I've built up huge callouses on my feet.

One night awhile back I was drunk and my feet started to itch. I scratched at it but my skin was too thick to have any satisfaction. So, I did what any drunk man would do: found a knife and started shaving my callous. The dead skin would come off in flakes. Every stroke would send little bits flying off my foot and onto the ground. It felt glorious. After twenty minutes I looked down and noticed my floor looked like a woodshop. Deadskin everywhere. So, I did what any drunk man would do: Piled that shit up onto a piece of paper and took a picture of it.

Mora.

All the MORA's.

Mora

The Morakniv brand of knives are extremely high quality for the price.

I have a stainless, a carbon steel and a coated carbon steel. I like the coated the most, but when I got some rust on my carbon, I took it off with steel wool and 'blued' it under my gas range. It's now exotic iridescent blue and purple colors, but it doesn't rust anymore. I didn't care because it cost me 12 dollars.

The coated was around 40 dollars I think...I use this one primarily when hiking, mushroom hunting or wildcrafting / digging in dirt. It's great. It's orders of magnitude a better, lighter, sturdier, handier knife than any of the clunky US marine, bowie, gerbie, honking, boneheaded bad designed knifes out of the US; also with swedish quality steel and lower price.

Ive used these for cooking, gardening and foraging / whittling / and bushcraft. I cannot say better things about Morakniv. Sure, there may be better knives but not for the price.

Mora Companion knife with sheath weighs ~5.3oz

None of the above. I would suggest you get a Morakniv such as a Companion and use it before you buy anything else.

Best $13 you will ever spend.

Yeah, I don't have one of these yet but they come highly recommended, particularly for the price.

Pick your flavor based on requirements.

Morakniv Companion and Buck 119 are awesome choices.

I'll second this, the only difference is that I bought the stainless steel version. I got it after reading LOTS of reviews about various knives, and basically just wanted to get a basic, good knife that didn't cost a ton. I have been quite happy with this one, and will probably get the carbon steel version sometime in the near future too.

Haha nice! I'm planning on getting all the colors of the Sandvik version!

The 2 words on the knife means "lucky". If i were to guess, they were probably chinese knockoffs. Not sure any reputable or knives with tradition going to name themselves lucky, more so with crappy designed box.

My choice on knife: I'm currently using a camping knife, Mora Companion, $14 in amazon. I picked the stainless steel version for ease of maintenance. They are cheap and works great. The scandi grind make it easy to sharpen the knife myself. Being a cheap knife with lifetime warranty and good review, I don't feel guilty for trashing it while learning how to use and maintain a knife.
