Hi everybody!
I got really into bushcraft in the last year or two, and I've always used a mora that served me well. Now I'm thinking about getting a new, sturdier general purpose bushcraft knife and keep the mora as a backup knife and for leisure carving purpose only.
I don't want to spend a lot of money on it, so I'm thinking about a fairly cheap one such as the classic Condor Bushlore.
Recently though, while I was looking for suitable alternatives, a particular knife got my attention: the Bushcraft o1 by Perkin knives. Here you have the amazon link and a youtube link where you can see it used in real hands.

I'm asking you guys if you know this knife, what are your impressions about it and what would be, in your opinion, the pros and cons if compared to the bushlore, as an all round camping knife.
The main differences, from what I saw, are that the blade is thicker than the bushlore (0,4mm), it is made out of o1 carbon steel and it has a sabre grind on it.
Thank you very much for helping me out and sharing your opinion and expertise, I'd really appreciate it!
