The Morakniv Wood Carving 120 is a compact and precise carving knife designed for detailed woodwork. With a short 2.4-inch blade and a fine point, it excels at controlled cuts and tight curves. The blade is crafted from laminated carbon steel, offering a hardened core for edge retention and softer outer layers for durability. Its oiled birch wood handle provides a warm, natural grip, preferred by carvers for long sessions. Ideal for beginners and professionals alike, the 120 is a trusted tool for whittling, figure carving, and detailed projects.
Noted by users for its sharpness out of the box, the knife is easy to hone and holds an edge well even under frequent use. The handle shape and size offer comfort and control for both small and medium-sized hands. This model comes with a simple plastic sheath for safe storage. Some reviewers also mention modifying the sheath or pairing it with a custom one to better match the knife’s quality.
