Mora Risberg Carbon - Cloudberries

The Mora Risberg Carbon is a compact outdoor knife built for reliability during everyday use in the field. Designed for activities such as hiking, fishing, camping and general camp tasks, it offers a practical balance of size, strength and control. Its lightweight design makes it easy to carry while remaining capable enough for a wide range of outdoor jobs.

The 91 mm blade is made from German C100S carbon steel produced by C.D. Wälzholz. Carbon steel is known for taking a very sharp edge and for its durability when working with wood. Hardened to around 58.5 HRC, the blade provides strong edge retention while remaining straightforward to sharpen when needed. The classic Scandi grind gives excellent control for carving, preparing kindling or handling more detailed outdoor tasks.

The blade extends close into the handle which improves control when working near the edge. This allows more stable cutting when carving wood or carrying out finer work around camp.

The ergonomic handle is made from durable polypropylene which resists moisture, dirt and cold conditions. Its shape sits securely in the hand and includes a finger guard for safer handling during longer tasks. A lanyard hole at the end of the handle allows the knife to be attached to cord or paracord if required.

The supplied polymer sheath uses a secure click lock system to keep the knife firmly in place during transport. It can be worn on either the right or left side and can also attach directly to the button on outdoor trousers for quick access when moving around camp.

Made in Mora, Sweden, the Risberg reflects Morakniv’s long tradition of producing practical knives designed for real outdoor use.

FAQ

How does the Mora Risberg Carbon compare to the Mora Companion Carbon

The Mora Risberg Carbon and Mora Companion Carbon are both versatile outdoor knives built around the same Scandinavian design principles. They share similar blade geometry and steel types but differ slightly in size and handle construction.

The Companion Carbon is slightly larger with a blade around 104 mm long, giving it a bit more reach for general outdoor work such as food preparation or cutting larger materials.

The Risberg Carbon has a shorter 91 mm blade which makes the knife more compact and slightly easier to control during detailed work such as carving or smaller camp tasks.

Both knives use a traditional Scandi grind which provides excellent control when working with wood and is easy to sharpen in the field. Carbon steel allows the blade to take a very sharp edge but requires basic maintenance to prevent rust.

Which one should I choose

Choose the Mora Risberg Carbon if you want a slightly more compact knife that is easy to carry and offers excellent control for carving and everyday camp tasks.

Choose the Mora Companion Carbon if you prefer a slightly longer blade with a rubberised handle designed for comfortable grip during extended outdoor use.
