Fixed-blade Bushcraft Survival Knife Morakniv NZ-BOS-SS-24, carbon steel, black-orange handle

Morakniv Bushcraft Survival fixed-blade knife NZ-BOS-SS-24 features a carbon steel blade and a black-and-orange ergonomic handle designed for outdoor survival and bushcraft tasks. The blade thickness and ground spine support tasks such as carving, batoning and preparing tinder, while the included sheath integrates both a fire starter and a diamond sharpener for field maintenance and fire-making convenience.

Advantages

The carbon steel blade offers solid edge retention and straightforward resharpening in the field. The ground spine is prepared for use with a fire starter, facilitating reliable spark generation. The black-and-orange handle provides an ergonomic grip and high visibility in natural surroundings. The sheath’s integrated diamond sharpener and fire starter reduce the need to carry extra accessories and help keep the blade ready for use.

Suitable for

• Bushcraft carving and notching
• Batoning small to medium wood for camp tasks
• Preparing tinder and starting fires using the integrated fire starter
• General camp chores: cutting rope, food prep, and shelter work

When it may not be suitable

This knife is designed for outdoor survival and bushcraft; it may be heavier and less compact than folding knives intended for everyday carry. Carbon steel requires regular maintenance to prevent corrosion when exposed to wet or salty environments. If you require a corrosion-resistant stainless-steel blade for marine use, consider an alternative designed specifically for that purpose.

Key specifications

• Blade material: carbon steel
• Blade thickness: 3.2 mm
• Blade style: fixed full tang (fixed-blade design)
• Spine: specially ground to be compatible with a fire starter
• Handle: ergonomic black-and-orange handle for grip and visibility
• Sheath: fitted with an integrated fire starter and a diamond sharpener

How to use

Hold the knife with a comfortable, secure grip for controlled cutting and carving. Use the blade for slicing, carving and controlled batoning; for batoning, ensure the blade is seated safely into the wood and strike with a baton or suitable club along the back of the handle. To produce sparks, place the fire starter rod against the ground or tinder bundle and scrape firmly along the specially ground spine to generate sparks. Use the diamond sharpener located on the sheath to restore the cutting edge as needed, following standard sharpening angles for carbon steel.

What to consider before purchase

• Carbon steel requires drying and oiling after use to prevent rust.
• Blade thickness (3.2 mm) is optimized for robust bushcraft tasks but adds weight compared with thinner blades.
• Integrated fire starter and sharpener in the sheath reduce the need for extra tools but require correct storage to keep them functional.

Usage recommendations

For durable field performance, clean and dry the blade after exposure to moisture, apply a light coating of protective oil, and store the fire starter and diamond sharpener securely in the sheath. Practice safe cutting and batoning techniques and use the ground spine with a proper ferrocerium rod to reliably start fires.
