Morakniv x Tormek – A Unique Design Collaboration

Tormek T-1 Morakniv 1891 with Morakniv Utility Knife Classic 1891 as a bundle

We are excited about our latest collaboration: Morakniv x Tormek. Together with the relaunch of the much-loved Morakniv Classic 1891 kitchen knife series, we are launching the ideal machine to maintain the sharpness of your Morakniv kitchen knives, or any other kitchen knives you use, for years to come – the Tormek T-1 Morakniv 1891.

A Tribute to Swedish Design and Manufacturing Heritage

Tormek T-1 Morakniv 1891 Knife Sharpener

The Tormek T-1 Morakniv 1891 is a special version of the first real knife sharpener for home chefs, the Tormek T-1 Kitchen Knife Sharpener. As the original, this machine is equipped with the patented angle setter to choose the sharpening angle flexible between 8 and 22 degrees for each side of the knife. It comes with the fine-grained diamond wheel to sharpen kitchen knives to professional sharpness and the composite honing wheel to remove the burr that develops during sharpening and to polish the edge to a razorblade sharpness.

The Tormek T-1 Morakniv 1891 has distinctive design elements that set it apart and make it a real eye catcher in every home kitchen. Rather than the original oak handle of the Tormek T-1 Kitchen Knife Sharpener, this version features a handle made of Swedish birch in the iconic deep red colour of the classic Morakniv handles. To honor the partnership, the solid zinc gray housing is stamped with the collaboration logo: Morakniv x Tormek. With over 150 years of combined expertise between both brands in crafting knives and sharpening tools, this machine serves as a homage to Swedish craftsmanship and design tradition.

-"Tormek and Morakniv have a lot in common. Both companies live and breathes sharp edges, our products are made in Sweden to ensure highest quality, and we have passionate users all over the world”, says Samuel Stenhem, CEO at Tormek. "For us, the Tormek T-1 Morakniv 1891 is more than a knife sharpener, but also a tribute to the Swedish design and manufacturing tradition.”

Morakniv x Tormek Branded Utility Knife

Morakniv Utility Knife Classic 1891

In addition to this special edition of the knife sharpening machine, you can also get the Morakniv Utility Knife Classic 1891, featuring the collaboration logo etched onto the blade. The knife is manufactured by Morakniv in Mora, Sweden. It is crafted with high-quality Morakniv steel, sharpened to 18 degrees per side and maintains its edge exceptionally well. The perfect every-day kitchen knife can be effortlessly kept as sharp as new with your Tormek T-1 Morakniv 1891. If you already own a different version of the Tormek T-1, the branded utility knife is exclusively via the Tormek web shop available for separate purchase.

-“We are very excited to work with Tormek on this collaboration and for the relaunch of our kitchen knife series, Morakniv Classic 1891. We deliver all our knives with razor sharpness, so it is only natural to keep them that way. The Tormek T-1 Morakniv 1891 is the perfect machine to easily and accurately do just that. And of course, I think it looks especially good with the Morakniv inspired handle.” says Richard Jägrud, CEO at Morakniv.
