An Essential Tool for Bushcraft & Wilderness Survival
Garberg is a wilderness knife created for those who love the outdoors and want a sturdy tool at hand, especially for bushcraft. Bushcraft is all about surviving and thriving in the wilderness by utilizing natural resources. It includes skills such as starting a campfire, building shelter, water purification, and food gathering. But it’s not just about survival—it’s also about deeply understanding and respecting nature. The One-Knife Philosophy is a popular philosophy in bushcraft that one knife is all your need when exploring. For us, the Morakniv Garberg is that one knife. It is a full-tang knife with a thick blade made from stainless steel or carbon steel, designed for tough tasks such as carving, cutting, and batoning. Its robust construction makes it a reliable companion in the wild.
Steel Options for the Garberg
Morakniv Garberg (S) – Swedish Stainless Steel
The Garberg is available in Swedish stainless steel (14C28N). Compared to carbon steel, stainless steel requires less maintenance and has better edge retention, stays sharp longer. It is also tougher and more resistant to breakage. Rockwell hardness: 58 HRC.Morakniv Garberg (C) – Black Carbon Steel with DLC Coating
Garberg BlackBlade (C) features a thick carbon steel (C100S) blade with a protective DLC coating (BlackBlade). Carbon steel is easier to sharpen than stainless steel but requires more maintenance as it is more prone to rust in humid environments. The protective DLC coating helps prevent rust and minimizes reflections on the blade. Rockwell hardness: 57.5 HRC.NOTE! Carbon steel is more susceptible to rust in humid environments—wipe and oil the blade after use.
Both versions of the Garberg feature a 3.2 mm thick blade and a un-polished spine compatible with ferro rods.
