Morakniv Garberg Grand (S) Stainless Bushcraft Knife

The Experience

The Morakniv Garberg Grand (S) Stainless Bushcraft Knife brings greater reach and cutting power to the proven Garberg platform without adding the maintenance demands of carbon steel. Its 5.59-inch Swedish stainless steel blade is designed for substantial outdoor work, including processing wood, carving stakes, cutting branches, preparing camp infrastructure, and handling demanding property tasks.

The extended blade remains paired with full-tang construction, a secure Dala-pattern grip, and a dark brown leather sheath that gives the knife a refined but unmistakably functional presence. For stewards who expect wet weather, changing seasons, or extended trips away from the sharpening bench, the Garberg Grand (S) offers a practical balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and field-ready control.

Scientific Engineering

• Extended Bushcraft Blade: The 5.59-inch blade provides added reach, leverage, and cutting capacity for heavier wood processing, carving, and camp construction.
• 14C28N Swedish Stainless Steel: Alleima stainless steel offers strong corrosion resistance, dependable edge retention, and lower-maintenance ownership than carbon steel.
• Full-Tang Construction: The blade steel runs through the entire handle for stability and strength during demanding cutting and batoning tasks.
• Exposed Rear Tang: The extended pommel can assist with controlled batoning, scraping, and striking sparks.
• Scandi Grind: The broad Scandinavian bevel supports carving, controlled wood removal, and straightforward field sharpening.
• Ferro-Rod-Compatible Spine: The ground blade spine can produce sparks from a fire steel without using the sharpened cutting edge.
• Stiff Blade Construction: The 3.2 mm blade thickness provides the rigidity needed for wood processing and substantial outdoor work.
• Dala-Pattern Friction Grip: The ergonomic polyamide handle maintains control in wet, cold, or gloved conditions.
• Integrated Finger Guard: The shaped guard helps prevent the hand from sliding forward during forceful cuts.
• Vegetable-Tanned Leather Sheath: The dark brown leather sheath provides secure belt carry and develops natural character with continued use.

Boutique & Conservation Values

• Lower-Maintenance Field Performance: Stainless construction is well suited to damp climates, extended trips, and customers who prefer less frequent blade care.
• Built for Long-Term Ownership: Full-tang strength, durable materials, and a sharpenable Scandi grind support years of practical use.
• Meaningful Added Capacity: The longer blade provides genuine reach and leverage rather than decorative size.
• Natural Leather Character: The dark brown sheath will gradually develop a unique patina shaped by how and where it is carried.
• Made in Mora: Manufactured in Mora, Sweden, using more than a century of Morakniv knife-making experience.

Steward’s Insight

Choose the Garberg Grand (S) when you want the size and strength of the extended Garberg platform but expect frequent exposure to rain, humidity, food preparation, or changing outdoor conditions. Its stainless blade is more forgiving than the carbon BlackBlade version, although it should still be cleaned and dried after use.

The longer blade provides noticeable leverage during wood processing, but it also requires more deliberate handling during close carving and detailed cuts. For users who prioritize compact control, the standard Garberg may remain the better fit; for heavier work and added reach, the Grand earns its name.
