Hook knives

The most important thing when it comes to wood carving is a sharp
knife. Instead of being a wonderful, creative experience, it can
become both irritating and dangerous if the knife is blunt. A real
sharp knife gets you on the right path quite simply.

If you want to carve your own spoon, bowl or cup, you will need a
hook knife as its U-shape makes it possible to hollow out rounded
and concave shapes.

Safer to use
To improve safety when carving,
the knives have a rounded safety
tip to take away the biggest
cause of injuries.
The Handle
The classic Morakniv shaped
handle made out of birch wood
sits perfectly in your hand
independent of grip or carving
technique. Natural wood also
gives excellent friction and
feeling against your skin. A
wooden handle also gives the
possibility to reshape the handle
according to own preferences.

The edge protection
To protect both you and the
knife our hook knives comes
with or without a simple but
ingeniously designed leather
edge protection made out of
Swedish vegetable tanned
leather manufactured locally
with cowhides from the region.
