I am looking at getting at a Mora knife for bushcraft and the like, but I am not sure what to get. I would like to get one with a full tang, and I'm not sure if I should go with Carbon steel, or stainless steel. any recomendations on good models?

Everyone has there favorite Moras so buy a couple seeing they are so inexpensive to get a better idea. That awesome x-ray above pretty much says it all...none of them really have a true full tang, but mine have held up great.
I also prefer the carbon steel models. I have a Bushcraft Triflex that I love. Between this one and the one Domdabears has I think you would be happy and find a favorite. For the price you can't beat them!

I;ve used moras allot over the past few years.. I probably have about 10 of them.. for the money you;d be hard pressed to find a better knife.
That being said.. very few of them come with "throug tangs these days.. even the wooden handled ones are 3/ tangs now.. that being said I;ve put these to the test and the 3/4 tang seem to be more than adequate for anything other than outright abuse.
My favorites are the new mora companion (in carbon)
and the Craftline 7-11 both are in the 11 dollar price range
good luck in your search.

i own two carving knives, clipper,a craftsmen triflex and 2 510's (slight finger guard) one has passed through all three of kids as a first knife
check out www.ragweedforge.com for some good prices I believe he has all of them in stock. i also agree with snow walker get several of different designs see which one you like. cant hurt to have a spare. I also prefer carbon over stainless but thats a personal preference.
google for reviews lots of people have overly abused them and even put new handles on them.

I just picked up the Mora Companion MG knife in carbon steel. I am very happy with it so far. Very light and it seems durable and for the price you cant beat it. I have also heard alot of positive things about Mora and not really any negative. I really havent got to put it to use yet, but will soon.To live is to survive, and to survive is to find meaning into something. Semper Fidelis.
