The Companion is one of Morakniv's most popular knives, because, as the name suggests, it is such a reliable companion. It works well both as an introductory knife for the younger generation as well as for more experienced outdoor enthusiasts. It can be used in a huge variety of situations by a range of users: bushcrafters, hunters, and outdoor enthusiasts have all discovered the charm of this knife.
The 4.0" blade is made of Swedish carbon steel. It has a soft, friction grip handle made of TPE rubber, which makes the knife feel safe and steady to work with. The polymer knife sheath has a practical belt clip for attaching the knife to a rucksack or a belt - always close at hand.
Knife blades of high carbon steel can be hardened to HRC 59-60 giving best possible sharpness to low price ratio. Knives made from high carbon steel will after some use achieve a dullish grey finish. However, this will not negatively affect the quality of the blade. On the contrary it will somewhat improve the resistance to corrosion.
