Morakniv 120 Carving Knife Birch 2.4in Plain Edge Polished Tapered FS14028

The Morakniv 120 Carving Knife Birch 2.4in Plain Edge Polished Tapered captures the essence of traditional Scandinavian craftsmanship, refined through generations of Swedish knife-making excellence. Imagine the smooth, rhythmic motion of steel meeting wood—the steady glide that turns raw timber into art. Every stroke with this knife connects you to a lineage of artisans who’ve shaped wood into life for centuries. Whether you’re carving a delicate figurine, shaping a spoon by the campfire, or discovering the meditative calm of sloyd for the first time, the Morakniv 120 transforms every project into an act of precision and beauty.

Crafted in the small town of Mora, Sweden, this fixed blade carving knife delivers the perfect balance between control and cutting performance. The 2.4-inch laminated high-carbon steel blade is tapered and polished for unmatched sharpness. Its precision edge bites cleanly into wood fibers, allowing smooth, detailed cuts that make every pass effortless. High-carbon steel is prized among woodworkers for its ability to hold a razor edge through extended carving sessions. With minimal maintenance, this blade becomes a long-term companion for every carving journey.

The authentic Scandi grind is another hallmark of Morakniv design. Flat and wide, it’s sharpened to perfection and incredibly easy to maintain—ideal for both new carvers learning edge control and seasoned artisans demanding exacting results. You’ll spend less time on maintenance and more time doing what you love: creating.

The barrel-shaped handle is crafted from natural Scandinavian birch, hand-oiled for a warm, tactile feel that enhances control. Its organic texture molds comfortably to your grip, offering the kind of balance and familiarity only natural materials provide. Inside, a full rat-tail tang runs the entire length of the handle, ensuring strength and stability through years of use. When not in hand, the knife rests securely in its durable black polymer sheath, always protected and ready for the next carving session.

Every Morakniv 120 is more than a tool—it’s a bridge between maker and material, skill and imagination. With proper care and a touch of oil on its carbon steel blade, it will reward you with decades of reliable service and craftsmanship that feels timeless.
