Morakniv Woodcarving Basic Sandvik Stainless Steel Wood Carving Knife With Sheath, 3 Inch

Two more of these because I can't imagine not having at least one! Great knives for just about everything except chopping or splitting wood, but for carving... I have all the other wooden handle carving knives from Mora, but they're all Carbon Steel, and meant to be oiled or waxed for protection. They're excellent for carving, but for just one knife I pick this Stainless Steel blade. It takes a beating and stays sharp! The steel is very hard and the only way to get that fine edge back is with a diamond hone. It's also a great bargain at the price. Don't let the plastic handle fool you into thinking this knife isn't as good as those full-tang versions for carving. The plastic is Very Tough, hard to cut and hard to drill. There you see the 2 new ones with the one I've had for years. The paracord goes through a diagonal hole that you need to use a tiny bit to get through to the other side then work up to large enough diameter to easily push the paracord through. This is an old bushcraft way of keeping your knife from leaving your grasp (which is important with a knife this sharp!) the old one on the right has just enough room for the little finger, the other two are more relaxed for the last 2 fingers. I also saw off the belt hanger because I either carry the knife in my pocket or it's in the tools bag with the other cutters, scrapers, rasps and chisels. This Stainless Steel 3 inch Carving Knife is well worth it and an excellent tool for carving!

When I came across the Morakniv Woodcarving Basic Sandvik Stainless Steel on Amazon for $16, I thought to myself that I should buy it. I had never purchased any items from this seller before, so I was concerned about the possibility of receiving a counterfeit product, and I planned to return it if that were the case. There are ten steps involved in the authenticity verification of Morakniv knives, and due to their popularity, the risk of counterfeiting is quite high. I received the knife in a plastic sheath, which I do not plan to use, since I have already ordered a leather sheath from Temu for under $10, and this knife fits perfectly in it. Please refer to the pictures. I verified the Morakvin logo, which appeared to be professionally made, and when I ran my fingers over it, it felt very smooth. If the logo looks like it was made with a hatchet, it is more likely a counterfeit product. The blade of this knife is very sharp right out of the box and has a mirror-polished finish. It is an excellent quality knife. It has maintained its sharpness for quite a long time. I was carving a spoon from cherry wood for more than an hour; I know it is a little slow, as I am still learning, and it still retains its original sharpness. I really like this knife and I am planning to buy it again.

My 11 year old daughter wanted to learn how to whittle, so we’re on this adventure together. I bought her a different one with a couple extra safety features, but love this one for me! I’m a knife guy and this is not my first Moriniv! Solid European products at prices that seem too low. I don’t have much to compare it to as far as whittling, but the grip to blade ratio is perfect. Blade has a nice grind and edge, too. The grip is a little slick, but shaped perfectly. I may rough it up a little, or add some tackiness. Easy 5 stars!

One of the best wood carving knives, i've ever owned. High quality steel, easy to keep a sharp edge.Allows me to carve freely and with great detail.And control for hours on end. If you need good steel, you buy from this company.

I bought this because it was inexpensive and advertised under wood carving knives. It has a black plastic sheath that protects it but unless pushed in good the knife can fall out. There's some kind of clip at the top of the sheath that looks like it might be for attaching it to your belt. Haven't tried that so don't know but doesn't look promising. The knife is comfortable in the hand and razor sharp. modern paring knives don't take an edge well any more. , I turn potatoes once in a while, ( A French technique, It would cut raw potatoes, hard veggies, carrots and apples great. If you carve potato roses, turn mushrooms or potatoes this knife would make you a star. it's okay for wood, the sheath protects but doesn't fit real tight. I'm sure if you hone it regularly it would stay razor sharp. I wouldn't let kids use it and you may want to wear a glove or at least tape around your thumb and index finger on your weak hand, i'm right-handed so mine is left . It would protect those fingers when using your opposite thumb to press with. I think for the price it is excellent.

I bought specific wood carving knives, yet this inexpensive Mora is of much better build quality and works much better. If you just want a superior yet inexpensive knife for whittling wood by a campfire, this is perfect. And at $10-15 it’s a no brainer.

I was skeptical of buying a stainless steel carver. I prefer high carbon. But this knife was shaving sharp right out of the box! It slices wood like butter! The steel is Mora's 12C27 skandiv SS. Which should hold an edge like other Moras. Handle is plastic but not cheap. Feels good in the hand.

Ultra Razor Sharp , Cut to the bone sharp !!! Five Stars !!!

Es un cuchillo de talla de madera que mantiene bien el filo, es cómodo para el trabajo, no pesa y su forma permite trabajar bien los detalles.

Great piece to work with

E un Mora...un nome che significa qualità,durata nel tempo,robustezza,comfort e lame eccezionali... ne posseggo molti altri e sono tutti coltelli fantastici... intaglio legno tutti i giorni e non credo ci sia di meglio sul mercato...da comprare a occhi chiusi..sia per esperti sia per chi si addentra nel mondo dell'intaglio o vuole un coltello dalla lama appuntita e non troppo lunga..ottimo per i dettagli...un buon compromesso tra il 120 ed il 106 come lunghezza della lama.lo straconsiglio oltretutto la lama essendo inox non necessita di essere oliata per prevenire ossidazione

Me gustaría rectificar mi última opinión sobre el producto, el cuchillo está bien, de buena calidad y buena relación calidad-precio, estoy satisfecha. Solamente hubo un problema con las fechas del envío, que se subsanó rapidamente. Agradezco el mensaje del vendedor acarando el tema.

Good product 👌🏻 .. Good steel 👍🏻 .. Morakniv knives are Good value for the kitchen table 👌🏻
