Mora Risberg Stainless Steel - Lingonberries

The Mora Risberg Stainless Steel is a compact outdoor knife designed for everyday use in the field. Lightweight and easy to carry, it suits a wide range of outdoor tasks including hiking, fishing, camping and general camp work. Its balanced size makes it approachable as a first serious outdoor knife while still offering the reliability expected from Morakniv.

The 91 mm blade is made from Swedish 12C27 stainless steel produced by Alleima. This steel takes a sharp edge easily while remaining straightforward to maintain in the field. The classic Scandi grind provides excellent control when carving wood, preparing food or working on smaller camp tasks. The blade runs close into the handle which improves control when working near the edge.

The handle is made from durable polypropylene which resists moisture, dirt and cold conditions. Its ergonomic shape sits securely in the hand and includes a finger guard for safer use 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 hold the knife firmly in place. It can be worn on either the right or left side and can also attach directly to the button on outdoor trousers, making it quick to access while working around camp.

Produced in Mora, Sweden, the Risberg continues Morakniv’s long tradition of practical knives built for real outdoor use.

FAQ

How does the Mora Risberg Stainless compare to the Mora Robust Pro (12249)

The Mora Risberg Stainless and Mora Robust Pro are both durable knives designed for practical use, but they are built for slightly different types of work.

The Risberg is designed as a lighter and more compact outdoor knife. It has a 91 mm blade made from Swedish 12C27 stainless steel and a blade thickness of 2 mm. This keeps the knife easy to carry while still providing good control for carving, food preparation and everyday camp tasks.

The Robust Pro (12249) is designed as a heavier duty working knife. It has a significantly thicker blade at around 3.2 mm which gives it greater strength for tougher tasks such as heavier wood work or construction style jobs.

Another difference is the handle construction. The Robust Pro uses a thicker rubberised grip designed for demanding work, while the Risberg uses a durable polymer handle that keeps the knife lighter and more compact for outdoor carry.

Both knives use a Scandinavian grind which provides excellent control when working with wood and is easy to sharpen in the field.

Which one should I choose

Choose the Mora Risberg Stainless if you want a lighter stainless steel outdoor knife that is easy to carry on hikes, camping trips and everyday outdoor use.
