- About the Brand
Carved for the wild and built to last, Mora knives sit right at the intersection of Scandinavian simplicity and no-nonsense performance. At New Forest Clothing, this collection is less about flashy gear and more about dependable tools that earn their place in your pack.
Born in Sweden, Mora knives carry a heritage of craftsmanship that’s been honed over centuries. Each blade is designed with purpose. Think razor-sharp edges, ergonomic handles, and materials that shrug off the elements. Whether you’re carving kindling by a windswept campsite, prepping food in the open air, or tackling bushcraft with muddy hands and a clear head, these knives feel like an extension of your grip rather than just another bit of kit.
The beauty lies in their honesty. No over-engineering, no gimmicks. Just high-quality steel, thoughtful design, and a reputation built on reliability. Lightweight enough to carry all day, tough enough to handle the unexpected.
At New Forest Clothing, Mora knives fit naturally alongside gear made for slow adventures and rugged landscapes. They’re for early starts, smoky fires, and the quiet satisfaction of doing things properly.
