Sarge- from what I've heard around here boy scouts is completely different than it was before. Anyways my uncle always teaches me stuff.
The only thing I've ever gotten from a yard sale is a mountain bike for $5. all the other stuff is just toys around here.
Might just as well replaced it with this. Again, this and mora share a lot of qualities together..

Survival is not about surviving AGAINST the nature. It's about surviving WITH the nature.
You can't go in to nature, nature is not a place or an object. Nature just is. You are living it.
Both made in Sweden were they?

No, the blue thing is actually american.. But the wood working capabilities, blade strength, reliability and holding the blade sharp are very very similar..

Wow! I wouldn't have thought a round object would have been that precision made, sharp or easy to use. You guys should try making the puukko like that!!

Neither I could believe that mora could be made with such ignorance to any quality, so blunt that the handle is sometimes sharper than the blade and so uncomfortable to use. You really should just let it just die extinct.

Personally, I think you are holding it backwards.

Again, I would limit the cooking equipment to just a pot and a spoon or fork. A knife is a give in. This will give you more practice. Also, google "no utensil cooking" for ways to cook stuff without a pot, especially eggs, bacon and potatoes. Using a can for a pot is also a good idea, and cheap.
I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.

The red thing is the handle, yes? If so, I'd hold it the right way, if there ever was a right way to hold a mora...Personally, I think you are holding it backwards.

Let's see now...
The Scouts are only going to be as good as the people in it! I vote for a complete incursion by outdoor minded people to wrest the reigns of leadership away from those lamos & take control!All that being said, why don't you ask your uncle to teach you about utensils then?
Don't give up on Yard, Garage, & Rummage Sales as you never know what's going to pop-up from time to time. As the end of the School year draws near I always check out the ones around the Campus of the University here. I even have a hard plastic Kelty water bottle there that someone threw away! I gave it a really good cleaning with soap & bleach & have used it for the last 3 years! I see tents for sale all of the time & have way more than I can use. My son spent $5 on 3 great sleeping bags.

Chrs - if you use some sort of can for a pot, just remember that many of them have a plastic liner. Sometimes it is difficult to see. Even soda cans have a plastic coating on the inside. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24qRLjnKT2Y
Aren't cans made out of aluminum? that's bad for you.
Some cans are. Aluminum is the most abundant metal on the plant. It's about 8% of the earth's crust. It can't be too bad for you since we're exposed to it day in and day out.

Well now...
Not near as bad as going without food & water; & you didn't answer my question about your uncle!

yeah,sorry, I didn't really get that whole part...
Aluminum has been shown to not cause Alzheimers. But if it is aluminum, then for sure it has a plastic liner (this only goes for cans with food or drink in it). If you still don't believe the data, then buy anodized aluminum. Anodizing keeps it from reacting with any extra ions and stuff.
But, most cans are either steel or tin.
