Detailed description
Introduction
The Morta Backlock knife has quickly become a star in our workshop’s lineup. After numerous requests from our clients, it was only natural to present it with a Damascus blade.
Compact Design and Locking Mechanism
With its compact size, it fits easily into any pocket. Its folded steel body provides excellent durability in use.
The backlock mechanism makes this Morta knife a reliable companion for all adventures, including culinary explorations.
Its exquisite stainless Damascus steel blade, forged by Marcus Balbach and revealed at the workshop, is composed of N690 steel and DE 45ncd16 folded over 120 layers for a hardness of 61 HRC. As you can see, the blade is not only beautiful but also exceptionally functional.
Blade Quality and Aesthetic Design
The blade rotation is ensured by a 304L steel axis, and two Teflon washers make the movement smooth and pleasant. The blade closes without any special precautions because a fixed stop prevents the edge from coming into contact with the mechanism hidden at the bottom of the handle.
Its aesthetic approach is contemporary with minimalist curves, yet delightfully retro with its bronzed steel body reminiscent of antique weapons, and the prominently visible backlock.
The Damascus steel chosen for this model offers a hardness of 61 HRC for an exceptional cutting edge. This remarkable blade with exceptional properties will not go unnoticed.
Brand Characteristics
Of course, despite the radical evolution of this model in the range of Morta folding knives, it retains the brand’s aesthetic codes: brass lanyard hole, blade fixation with brass rosettes, handle covered in Morta, and generously sized blade.
Customization Options and Clip Sheath
Engraving on the backlock button is offered, allowing you to add a personal and discreet touch to your knife. You can also choose to customize the spring inside the knife for subtle personalization that makes this Morta YOUR Morta.
As for the clip sheath, it is available as a paid option at €40 in its black stitched version and in the size adapted to this knife. This versatile sheath allows you to carry your knife safely, in a pocket or bag, thanks to the clip on the back.
Over time, this Morta will prove to be an ideal companion for all uses.
Any questions?
Can we visit the workshop ?
Yes. We gladly welcome you from Monday through Saturday from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. in September to June and to 7 p.m. in July and August.
You will discover our unfiltered work environment: noise, dust and good spirits. Nothing is staged or orchestrated. One of us will give you a presentation of the material, the extraction techniques and the different product models here.
What are the differences between the steels ?
With a bit of common sense and lots of love 😉
Avoid submerging your knife. For added safety, simply avoid the handle coming into contact with water, because like wood or horn, Morta is a natural material that does not like water.
You can rub a little beeswax over the handle to brighten up its colour subtleties. Place a drop of oil in the mechanism if necessary. But generally speaking, normal use requires nothing in particular in terms of care.
