Norwegian Helle Fabrikker Hunting / Fishing Knife and Open Top Ornate Metal Scabbard. 15908:3. Hunting 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. 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. The polished single edged blade is 11cm in length (21 ½ cm overall). It is laser etched; 18/8 High Carbon Edge – A/S – HELLE FABRIKKER – NORWAY. The solid hardwood grip is unmarked held with silver metal coloured pommel and base. The heavy silver metal coloured scabbard is ornately carved with a floral design. It is lined with thin leather inside and has a leather belt loop attached. The price for this bespoke piece from a well respected manufacturer includes UK delivery. 15908:3.
