Product Description
The original Mordax was one of Ferrum Forge’s most popular designs. Usually the custom knife shop only makes limited batches of each knife—but thanks to our strong partnership and the Massdrop community’s demonstrated interest in their work, we’re bringing the Mordax back, this time with a few key changes to make it even better Read More

Some styles are available directly from Amazon. Not another seller but Amazon proper however they are about $50 more.... so 250-260 depending on the style. They had DLC coated blades a few days ago but those sold very quickly.

I just received mine, but it cannot cut the edge of the paper into half. Is the blade dull? This is my first blade

You know, if you guys ever actually had this knife in stock I might have bought one by now. Don't get me wrong, it oughta be maybe $220 and aluminum isn't my absolute favorite scale material but even with the price higher than I think it should be, it's got a great steel and nice lines and I'm all about the manual plunge lockers. These days I'm just kinda meh about most stuff that doesn't have a plunge or crossbar or compression lock, something nice and fidgety, or a Wave on the blade. Feel like I have enough liner and frame locks, enough lockbacks, definitely enough slippies - I look at my burgeoning collection and go 'do I need more of these?' and the answer really feels like a no to me unless there's something very special or it's just caught my attention for some flaky reason. And this is like the one Drop branded knife that gets away from the pack and has a plunge lock on it. I've even had it in my cart a few times... but the prospect of just waiting for months on end for it to ship just kinda kills the buzz. Shrug. Two cents.

So just wondering, when does drop plan on shipping out these knives because we already had to wait three months for the ship date and that was 3 days ago without a word or more appropriately a tracking number for a soon to arrive, eagerly anticipated package preferably en-route lol

Dear DROP: Please add a Chromed or Polished Stainelss Steel Handle (or blade too) option.

Has anyone else had an issue with an asymmetrical blade? I don't just mean the edge grind, I mean the entire blade being slightly asymmetrical. Just curious to know how unique the issue is.

Received the Mordax today and i do like how lightweight it is for the size. Right away i did notice is has the mushy button lock flipper detent unlike the malibu which does indeed have a much crisper break upon deployment although the Mordax does seem to deploy reliably. I have not disassembled either knife but looking at the button locks they appear to possibly use the same exact button locks so I’m guessing the difference in the detents is milled into the blade tang geometry where it interfaces with the button. Regarding the mordax’s milled handle i had also read about the sharp/hot spots but decided to take the chance since I’m not that fond of the Malibu’s slick aluminum handle nor my other Protech handle, an SNG. I have nothing against aluminum handles as long as they have some type of texture to break up the slick feeling. I have a Cold Steel code 4 which also has this issue and ended up sending it for some hand engraving which worked wonders so I suppose that’s always an option for the malibu. The milling on the mordax handle is good for me until you get to the bottom of the handle which gets thinner where your fingers wraparound and the designer chose cheese grater like 90° blocky milling which is always just a bad choice for a knife handle. If they would’ve not done that part and just left the milled lines throughout it would’ve been much better. I would like to see that on the Malibu actually adding some milling lines for texture sans cheese grater area. I suppose as long as ones not planning on hard using the mordax and just mainly light to medium EDC use it shouldn't present a problem though and it does look nicer than Plain flat AL slabs. I’ve only had the mordax for a few hours and the Malibu for a couple months or so now but i think I do prefer the Malibu and had already decided it will most likely stay in the collection as it does have a lot going for it where as the mordax I’m not so sure yet but they are both quality blades. Ive handled and own many makes/models over the years and there is no such thing as the perfect folder. There are Always compromises and it comes down to how the design and features align with our preferences and what we are willing to overlook and what is a showstopper ultimately.
