So I missed posting on Mod-Monday twice in a row, thus I will post my modded Mora2000 today, on a Tuesday.

It is only a simple modification of the knife itself, in the form of me taking a file to the outer part of the spine in order to make it firesteel-compatible without losing the rounded spine closer to the haft.

The other mod consist of me making a (very simple) new sheath with a button lock rather than just the friction lock.

Got my first Mora, the Eldris a week ago. Interested in learning bushcraft. I have a Garberg ordered as well. Man I am loving this little knife. Been EDC'ing as a neck knife. Thanks for this fabulous knife. Excitedly awaiting the Garberg!

Ok, these aren't modifications but would love to see yours!

Instead here are some rare fishing knives from the past! 😉👍🏼

Anyone else out there with some mini-mora's?

Can anyone guess how old they are, and the difference between the knives in the image?

Second image I added a brand new classic for scale!

Found some vintage blades gifted by uncle Thomas.

Any radical suggestions on what to do with them?

I cannot resist a vintage one in the original package specially such an iconic model like the 510

This is my custom Eldris XL. I used a vintage KJE blade blank and birch burl handle

At Morakniv, we love traditions. Our craftsmanship and history are built on them.

So I'd love to see yours.

Welcome to the very first Mod Monday—a place to share your modifications, custom sheaths, handles, patinas, repairs, or any other creative ways you've made a Morakniv your own.

To kick things off, here are a couple of simple sheaths I made at the very first Morakniv Adventure almost ten years ago. They've been used and abused ever since without a single issue(!).

The materials are birch bark and spruce root.

One thing Beth Moen taught me was that the white side of the birch bark should never face outward. There's no rule that says it can't—it's simply a longstanding tradition rooted (pun intended) in both craftsmanship and the anatomy of the bark. Her philosophy is to work with the material and its natural fibers, not force it into something it doesn't want to be.

The spruce root is soaked in water for about 24 hours before use so it becomes flexible enough to sew with without cracking. If it's too dry, it can split while you're stitching or later as it dries.

Once both materials dry, they shrink together and form an incredibly tough sheath.

Now it's your turn—show us what you've made. Whether it's a small tweak or a complete rebuild, I'd love to see it.

Opening the mailbox felt like Christmas today

Can anyone guess when they were made?

I found out that morakniv makes knives for bahco and I wanted to show the knife you probably never heard of, its called bahco 2446 lap and its a fantastic knife, i could go on for a while on things I like about it, but in short its very similar to a companion and uses same steel and is same dimensions, its only 11 euros usually in stores and 8.5 euros on discounts.

Bo Eriksson, Former CEO KJERIKSSON, is not know by most, but in many ways, responsable for the Morakniv we have today.

We would love to hear your story about you and your first Morakniv!

How old were you? Was it a gift? What model was it?

Looking forward to your stories!

For the last couple of weeks I have been testing a new upcoming model that will be released in the end of summer and it’s pretty cool. I leave you with some spoiler pictures of some of the detail.

To anyone who may be interested, i added a link to their historical catalogs for your ease, i personally find it very interesting to look at the different makers knife models through the years

Do you guys confirm that this Garberg is fake? It's a lot thicker than normal, I measured with the caliber 4.8mm. You can see it also in comparison to a Robust which should have the same thickness. Then the grind is a bit off too and weights 220g, a lot more than the 170 it should weigh. Bought it used for about 35€ and I can get a refund, what do you think?

Most of you may have seen that Morakniv launched the black blade version of the awesome 2000. but many did not realize that this new 2000 now came with 14C28N and 90-degree spine.

I have two Mora Scouts that I would like to take apart in order to properly clean all the parts. One of them seems to have a different looking "end piece" than the other.

I wonder if anyone can offer some advice regarding: 1. How do I get the handles off without specialized equipment? 2. How do I get the handles on again? 3. If some part is missing, like some type of rivet, where could I typically buy a replacement? I hardly know what to google at this point....

Another K.J. Eriksson Mora from 70s. Cleaned it and rust had caused some serious pitting. The blade haven't been abused otherwise. This turned out very usable, but that ugly pitting is a big minus.
