Limited Edition 2023
Limited Edition 2023
This year’s limited edition colour draws inspiration from the shimmering yellow Zorngården located in the heart of Mora, as well as our beautiful Dala Red colour, which for decades has given character to the knives from Morakniv.
Zorngården was once the home of the artist Anders Zorn and his wife Emma Zorn in Mora. The building was designed by the artist himself and was completed in 1910. The architecture and colours differed significantly from the rest of the cityscape as Anders Zorn, during his years abroad, had been inspired by other countries architecture and building constructions.
From Zorn’s artist home to the well-known red colour, the step is no further than a brush stroke on a palette. The colour that is so strongly associated with Mora, Dalarna and, Sweden has had a special role in knife history since 1912. Namely, it was then that the knives manufactured in Mora started to get their handles painted with the characteristic red colour.
