Morta Knife Lock Back As Forged

Morta Knife – Lock Back As Forged Edition

The Morta Knife Lock Back As Forged Edition is a celebration of authentic craftsmanship, designed for enthusiasts who appreciate durability, traditional forging techniques, and timeless design. With its compact build, robust locking mechanism, and raw forged blade, it is both a practical tool and a collector’s piece.

Introduction

The Morta knife with its rear pump locking system has received an outstanding reception from knife enthusiasts. This edition takes it a step further by featuring a beautifully hand-forged 90mcv8 carbon steel blade, adding character and soul to an already iconic model. Over time, the blade develops a natural patina, enhancing its unique charm.

Compact Design & Reliable Locking System

Designed to fit easily into any pocket, this Morta knife offers excellent portability without compromising strength. Its folded steel body ensures resistance to wear, while the reliable backlock mechanism provides secure handling during both culinary and outdoor use.

Blade Quality & Aesthetic Appeal

The blade’s rotation is supported by a 304L stainless steel axis and dual Teflon washers for smooth and precise movement. A fixed stop ensures the cutting edge never contacts the inner mechanism when closed. Forged from high-carbon 90mcv8 steel with a hardness rating of 59/60 HRC, the blade combines exceptional cutting performance with a raw, traditional look that evolves beautifully with use.

Distinctive Craftsmanship

Combining minimalist curves with vintage charm, the knife’s design is completed with a bronzed steel body reminiscent of antique firearms. The signature Morta handle, brass lanyard pass, and brass rosettes reinforce the brand’s identity and commitment to fine craftsmanship.

As with all knives made from natural materials (wood, horn, Morta, etc.), avoid prolonged exposure of the handle to water. Do not soak the knife or put it in the dishwasher — simple rinsing and immediate drying are recommended.

Over time, frequent contact between the Morta handle and the palm of your hand will create a warm, authentic patina. This natural ageing process makes each knife uniquely yours and enhances its character.

For best results, occasionally apply a light coat of mineral oil or a dedicated wood/horn conditioner to the handle. Wipe the blade clean with a soft cloth and a little warm water after use, then dry immediately. Regular light maintenance will preserve both the finish and performance of your Morta knife for years to come.
