Helle Norwegian Knives



Helle Fabrikker is situated in Holmedal, a small village by a Norwegian fjord. Here Nature, and a love of the outdoors, is a part of everyday life. This has been the home of Helle Knives since the brothers Sigmund and Steinar Helle started their business in 1932.



The wild mountainsides and open sea are the inspiration for these robust knives. Much has changed since Steinar Helle cycled over the mountains to Oslo to sell his knives. But one thing that has not is an uncompromising insistence on quality.



This love of outdoor life, combined with the Scandinavian sense of quality and elegant functionality, define Helle knives. Each Helle knife undergoes up to sixty hand operations and inspections, and each knife leaves the factory fully sharpened and ready to work. The result is a knife worthy to be passed down to a son or daughter.



These knives are not to be confused with "factory-made" knives that are usually produced in big volumes, on automated high-production machinery. At Helle, each knife is essentially hand crafted by experienced and dedicated cutlers. Each blade is individually ground by hand to achieve a shaving-sharp edge. Knife handles of carefully selected Arctic Curly Birch and "aged wood" are precisely shaped, and finished to a hand rubbed patina. Each handle fits the hand comfortably, and has it's own distinctive grain and figure, making your Helle knife "one of a kind".

The Varg is a neat personal knife combining traditional and modern elements. The laminated stainless blade is just over 3". It has a clipped profile that provides an acute point as well as some curve for a light skinning chores. It would make an excellent small game knife. The handle is about 4 1/4" long and is shaped to provide a solid grip. It's sized for small to medium hands, and is built up from birch and resin (a fancy word for high grade plastic). It also comes with a snap style sheath.

$69.
