Product Description
The Woodcarving Knife 120 (LC) is a classic whittling knife with a 62 mm laminated carbon steel blade. The short, pointed blade offers good precision for fine carving and detailed work. The barrel-shaped handle in oiled birch sits comfortably in the hand and provides control with every cut.
The blade is 2.7 mm thick and made from French laminated carbon steel (100CR6). A carbon steel core is surrounded by softer steel, giving the knife excellent edge retention and toughness to handle lateral stress. The blade reaches a hardness of 58.5 HRC and has a polished surface that protects against rust, but should always be wiped and oiled after use.

Great carving knife
I have several of the slightly longer 106 and always wanted to try one of these. Glad I did. The shorter blade is a bit safer (IMO) when working on smaller carvings, just a little less blade length when making heavier slicing cuts. Get one of each.

Great knife for carving
The knife came very sharp, and ready to use. The sheath is on the cheaper side, but the knife is amazing. It is very manageable to use, especially for inexperienced like me. Just watch your fingers!

Top of the line
Ready to carve out of the box. No frills. affordable. I have several Mora knives and will continue to buy them. No complaints whatsoever. I wish they made hook knives with a larger radius.

Must have carving knife
The Mora 120 is pretty small so it may not be as versatile as a 106 but for many of the greenwood carving situations I encounter it does the trick. It is a little less intimidating to beginners than the long and skinny 106. You can generate a lot of power and control when using the correct grips and you are less likely to knick your non dominant hand with the tip when you are focused on the base of the blade. The steel hits the sweet spot of easy to sharpen yet durable as long as you are not abusing it and I rarely get any chipping or rolling of the edge when using the factory bevel angles. The 120 is small enough to stand in for a chip carving or engraving knife if necessary. A must have for the tool box and the field kit!
