Morakniv, creator of quality Swedish knives since 1891, has unveiled a new collection of outdoor knives designed to inspire the next generation of adventurers, along with carbon steel versions of two popular Woodcarving options.
The Scout 39 and Scout 39 Safe are the latest in a long line of Scout knives dating back nearly a century. This classic outdoor knife is an ideal first model for learning knife skills and can be used for a variety of projects, with thoughtful design features that put user safety first. Additionally, Morakniv welcomed two new woodcarving knives to its lineup, the Woodcarving 106 and 120 in carbon steel.
The Scout 39 features a barrel-shaped handle made of Scandinavian birch wood. It is designed to rest comfortably in a small hand. With double finger protection and an optional rounded tip, the knife is an ideal entry-level option for young adventurers. The Scout 39 has a 2mm thick blade made from recycled Swedish stainless steel. It has a full rat-tail tang that runs through the length of the handle for added strength and stability. The sheath is made from vegetable tanned leather. It has a strap that can easily and safely attach to a belt, with a classic button lock. The Scout 39 is available in two versions, with or without a pointed tip, and comes in three colors. MSRP: $49.99
“When updating these knives, we had the history of the Scout knives in mind,” said Linus Bastman, Project Manager & Product Developer at Morakniv. “These knives were introduced in the late 1920s, so people are familiar with the design when looking at them. This new collection features updated colors and materials so customers are getting a little bit of the past and a little bit of the future in one beautiful package.”
