Recently I bought for my grandchildren small Swedish wood carving knife. The length of the blade is 2.4" and blade thickness is slightly more than 0.1". The blade is made of laminated carbon steel, the core hardness should be between 58 to 60 HRC. If we use the results of Rockwell hardness study we can say that steel with 60 HRC is by 10% harder than 58 HRC steel.
The measured included angle of the Scandi grind is 29°.
BESS score is between 150 and 160.
Based on my measurements and calculations the thickness of the core of the blade is circa 0.06".
The Morakniv carving knife is not expensive (USD 25), but quality woodworking tool with premium-quality carbon knife steel.
