Morakniv knives stand out not only for their high quality and functional design but also for an excellent price-performance ratio. In this article, we introduce you to the Morakniv brand and its wide range of products in more detail.

The Story Behind Morakniv: From a Small Craft Business to a Global Brand

The Swedish knife manufacturer can look back on a long history, as the brand has existed for more than 130 years. The roots of Morakniv go back to the year 1891, when Frost-Erik Erson returned to his hometown of Östnor in the municipality of Mora after four years of working as a lumberjack in North America. In the same year, he founded a factory for wooden sleds, which also produced high-quality knives for local use.

In the following years, Morakniv was able to continuously expand production, which can also be attributed to the fact that the manufacturer's cutting tools were very popular among itinerant farm traders. Around the turn of the century, the company was already producing approximately 20 000 knives per year, which were exported to numerous European countries.

Did you know? In Mora, cutting tools have been manufactured for more than 400 years. As early as the 17th century, blades known for their sharpness and durability were produced here. Morakniv built on this tradition and has developed over the years into a symbol of Swedish craftsmanship.

In 1912, former employee Krång-Johan Eriksson founded his own knife brand, KJ Eriksson, after disputes with the management. In 1988, it acquired one-third of the company shares of Morakniv. Since 2005, the manufacturer has been an 100-percent subsidiary of KJ Eriksson. Following the merger, the company first renamed itself "Mora of Sweden" and 2016 to "Morakniv AB". Since then, the knife producer has made a name for itself worldwide, with all cutlery still being manufactured in the Mora region.
