Morakniv Classic Original Review

The historical backdrop of the mora cut backpedals to the iron age and the period of the Vikings. Archeological discoveries show handling of iron in the territory of Ovansiljan around this time. From that point forward the craftsmanship and aptitudes of the instrument smiths have been carried on from age to age. The blade culture becomes solid around the town of Östnor in Mora Dalarna Sweden. Here Frost-Erik Ernström established the Frost Knife Factory in 1891. This got the opportunity to be the establishment of what we today know as Morakniv AB. Around that time a few makers in the range delivered mora blades. In 1912 Eriksson and Mattsson's Knife Factory was established by Krång-Johan Eriksson and Lok-Anders Mattsson. This organization later transformed into the brand KJ Eriksson AB. By the 1920's the handle of the prevalent mora cut got its red shading and amid the second 50% of the 1900's plastic upset the ventures empowering new outline potential outcomes. Because of this we likewise got the outstanding mora blades of the 80's utilizing elastic and plastic in the handles. In 2005 KJ Eriksson and Frosts Knivfabrik consolidated and made the brand Mora of Sweden. Today the organization offer cutting items using the two brands; Morakniv and Frosts where Morakniv is dealing with the creating devices and open-air items and Frosts convey instruments intended for the nourishment business. This year (2016) Morakniv celibates their 125th commemoration by changing their organization name into Morakniv AB.

As a characteristic tribute to the old school mora blades Morakniv today offer the model named Original 1. This blade is a piece of the Classic arrangement, and the distinction contrasted with alternate blades in the exemplary lineup is the Original 1's non shaded birch handle and the 2,8 mm thick covered carbon edge steel. The blade has a long tang settled inside the tube-shaped handle by contact and a tube stick seen on the back of the handle. The Scania Grind edge profile has an edge of 23 degrees.

For this blade, two distinct sheaths are offered from the industrial facility. One Vulcan fiber sheath offered in the bundle Classic Original 1 (Art.No.11011), and the calfskin sheath offered under the name Morakniv Original 1 (Art.No.11934). I have the two sheaths, and I pick the Vulcan form while conveying the Original 1. The cowhide sheath I believe are more proper while conveying the littler Classic 2/0. The reason I do this is I've seen an inclination of the Original 1's long and sharp edge slicing through the calfskin sheath not utilizing a plastic trim. I cherish the two sheaths, and they are ideal for two of my most loved mora blades.

The Classic Original 1 is one of the Morakniv cut models I utilize every now and again. It's ideal for climbing the forested areas or simply sitting cutting by the lodge fire. The Original one is very much adjusted, be that as it may on the off chance that I could wish for it; I'd like a thicker and somewhat longer handle (like the idea about the Morakniv Slöjdkniv 120). The knives ability, outline and history is exceptionally engaging. The mora cut has breezed through the trial of time through history, and the modest blade from Dalarna Sweden is today cherished everywhere throughout the world. Morakniv is a piece of us, and this is something we Swedes ought to be exceptionally pleased with.
