5000 years ago... In the Brière region, a beautiful oak forest was drowned by the waters. Trapped by the peat, the trees became mineralised and preserved. This exceptional wood of great nobility that has stood the test of time is called Le Morta.
A range that's going from strength to strength! As well as the "Morta massif" and "Morta ivoire" that have made the brand's reputation, you'll now find damasks, table knives, fixed knives and "small pocket" versions of most of our folding knives.
Elegant, with its finely engine-turned plates and spring, the Morta knife does not deny its rural origins: it remains a utility knife, designed to accompany you everywhere and serve you faithfully.
Its dimensions are ideal for versatile carrying and use, and its generous "sage leaf" blade makes it an effective tool. Once it's in your pocket, you'll find it hard to part with your Morta knife. That's why we back our knives with a lifetime guarantee.
We'd be delighted to welcome you to our workshop, where you can immerse yourself in the day-to-day life of a knife maker.
"I extract the fossilised oak that gives Morta knives their name from the Brière marshes. I make Morta knives from rigorously selected materials. That's why I give them a lifetime guarantee. Jean-Henri Pagnon
