The Morakniv Mörkret Black Blade C Pitch Black is a hard-hitting survival knife designed for demanding outdoor adventures, bushcraft, and heavy-duty fieldwork. Combining a robust full-tang construction with German 100Cr6 carbon steel and a protective black DLC coating, this fixed blade delivers dependable strength, practical control, and a low-reflection finish for challenging environments. Made in Mora, Sweden, with more than 135 years of knife-making expertise behind it, the Mörkret is built for users who demand reliable performance when conditions get tough.
The 6-inch blade is crafted from German 100Cr6 carbon steel manufactured by C.D. Wälzholz GmbH and hardened to 57.5 HRC. Measuring 0.165 inches thick, the blade features a black diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating that helps protect against corrosion while reducing unwanted reflections. The steel's composition provides a balance of toughness and durability, making it well suited for demanding cutting tasks. Since carbon steel still requires proper care, cleaning and drying the blade after use will help preserve its condition over time.
A High Flat grind with a secondary bevel leaves additional steel behind the edge for improved strength during heavy-duty work. The edge extends all the way into the handle, supporting precise control and efficient power transfer when carving, processing wood, preparing camp, or building a shelter. The precision-designed spine is compatible with ferro rods, and the sharpened exposed tang at the rear can scrape tinder or strike a fire starter when it's time to get a fire going.
The full-tang construction provides a solid foundation for strength and balance, while the glass-fiber-reinforced Power Touch Grip offers a comfortable feel with high impact resistance. Its pronounced texture improves traction in wet, cold, or damp conditions, and ridges along the spine help maintain control when wearing gloves. A built-in finger guard adds another practical feature, while the lanyard hole provides a convenient attachment point for cord or paracord.
For secure carry, the Mörkret includes an ambidextrous black polymer sheath with a Click-On locking system that holds the knife firmly in place. Its mounting pattern accommodates TEK-LOK accessories and MOLLE-compatible rails, allowing flexible carry configurations. The included LIBA Smart belt loop functions as a dangler and features a secondary locking mechanism for convenient attachment and removal.
Measuring 11 inches overall and weighing approximately 10.65 ounces, the Morakniv Mörkret Black Blade C combines Swedish craftsmanship, durable carbon steel, and purposeful ergonomics in a capable outdoor tool.
