The Morakniv Classic Draw Knife is a versatile tool that should be a staple in every woodworker's arsenal. Its 4.5 inch stainless steel blade can handle both splitting and carving with ease.

The grip is comfortable and allows for a firm, stable hold while working. Despite its size, the blade is incredibly…

Pros
  • Specifications: Blade length: 4.5 inches (114 mm), blade thickness: 0.1 inch (2.5 mm), total length: 13.7 inches (348 mm); weight: 2.6 ounces (73 g)
Cons
  • While the stainless steel construction may seem appealing, it can actually make the blade susceptible to rust and other forms of corrosion if not properly cared for and maintained

Lots of good, some bad

This is a draw knife. I would work sooo much better if it had a single edge. It's good steel, well heat treated, and comfortable to use, but it really needs a single bevel to be more effective. The double bevel is strong, and it gets incredibly sharp, but just a lot less effective than a single bevel blade.

Pros
  • Sports & Outdoors
Cons
  • The blade on this draw knife is quite short, making it unsuitable for larger, more complex carving projects that require more precise cuts and balance
