The Mora Carving Knife 120 is a Swedish made medium length knife specifically designed for wood carving, available in two blade types (please select from the drop-down box above):

• Carbon Steel - plain carbon steel blade that will take and hold a super-sharp edge
• Laminated Steel - carbon steel blade sandwiched between softer steel making sharpening slightly easier

If you are just starting out on your carving adventures this is a great one to get going with, but make no mistake of its quality or reliability, as it is also used by many experienced carvers. Typically used for spoon carving and other carving work such as bevelling tenons on chair legs.

This is a slightly shorter knife when compared with the Morakniv Carving Knife 106; some beginners prefer starting with this knife due to the shorter blade but probably will find some limitation when doing cuts requiring tight turns. If you can, its worth having both in your collection - but if you can only afford one - we'd probably advise go for the 106 due to its increased versatility. Nonetheless this knife is an absolute workhorse and absolutely deserves a place in any carvers tool roll.
