Knife Blade Basic (S)
Knife blade in stainless steel, 94 mm blade, Scandi grind
The polished knife blade is made from Swedish stainless steel, 12C27, with a recycling rate of over 80% from the steel producer. This high-quality knife steel, combined with expertise in hardening and metallurgical knowledge, results in a blade with a balanced combination of hardness, toughness, and edge retention.
The knife blade undergoes a rigorous manufacturing process that has been refined over 130 years at the knife factory in Mora. Morakniv’s goal is to achieve the ideal balance between optimal sharpness and edge retention. The knife blade material is heat-treated by first being heated to over a thousand degrees in a protected atmosphere, then cooled down to room temperature. Finally, the knife blade is tempered at several hundred degrees to maximize the steel's performance. After this heat treatment, the knife blade achieves a hardness of 56.5 HRC.
The knife blade is side-ground under meticulous control, followed by precision sharpening of the edge, where the knife receives its Scandi grind through the honing phase. Finally, the knife blade is polished in two steps, a rough polish followed by a fine polish. Since the knife spine is not compatible with a fire starter, it is left unprocessed, with visible traces from the stamping stage.
Each component is meticulously developed and crafted with masterful quality by skilled craftsmen at the Morakniv knife factory in Mora, Sweden.
