Mavka

The “Mavka” is a signature Kiridashi crafted by MARVYN KNIVES – inspired by the mythical forest spirit of Ukrainian folklore. A Mavka symbolizes wild beauty, sensitivity, and inner strength, and this knife captures that balance perfectly: a delicate silhouette paired with a razor-sharp, purposeful edge.

Designed for precision, the Mavka features an elongated blade shape made for:

• leather crafting
  
  

• wood carving
  
  

• fine detail work
  
  

• scoring and controlled cuts
  
  

• tasks where sensitivity and accuracy matter
  
  

Despite its slim profile, the knife feels strong, responsive, and connected. Every motion transfers through the steel with clarity, giving the user exceptional control.
