About the product
Hook knife 163
The Hook Knife 163 features a 74 mm double-edged blade made from Swedish stainless steel. Its wide, shallow curve is ideal for carving spoons, bowls with a large radius, and smoothing surfaces. The barrel-shaped handle in oiled birch provides good control and fits comfortably in the hand. Comes with a sheath made of Tärnsjö leather.
Hook knife with 74 mm double-edged blade
The Hook Knife 163 has a 74 mm blade with a shallow curve and double-edged blade, designed for carving spoons or bowls with a large radius. The stainless steel holds its edge well and is easy to maintain. The knife features a full rat-tail tang for strength and stability, and a comfortable barrel-shaped Scandinavian birch handle.
Wide, shallow curve for spoons and shallow hollows
The blade’s wide, shallow curve and double edge make it perfect for carving spoons or bowls with a large radius and for smoothing surfaces. The blade is optimized to glide smoothly over the inside of a spoon or bowl without digging or catching. Since the blade is double-edged, you can carve with both push and pull cuts.
Comfortable birch handle
The barrel-shaped birch handle fits comfortably in the hand, regardless of carving technique or grip, even during extended use. It comes with a sheath made from Swedish vegetable-tanned leather.
Swedish stainless steel with long-lasting sharpness
The 2 mm thick, 74 mm long blade is made from Swedish stainless steel (12C27) with over 80% recycled content and a hardness of 56.5 HRC. The stainless steel is durable, holds its edge for a long time, and requires minimal maintenance.
Made in Mora, Sweden
The knife is assembled and heat-treated at our factory in Mora, Sweden, with 135 years of knife making tradition.
