About the Harding:
Helle Harding is by many considered to be the no.1 among the Helle classics. True to its Norwegian heritage, this knife has accompanied many of our fans' adventures all over the world.
The beautiful, warm handle is made from curly birch and darkened oak. Blocks of wood that is separated by layers of colored leather. The handle has then been hand sanded to its barrel shape and polished by hand to a masterpiece.
The full-length stick tang blade is made of triple laminated stainless steel. Sharpened with a traditional scandi grind and hand polished to a razor-sharp edge.
The Harding comes with a beautiful and classic sheath of high-quality leather. * Left-handed sheath available (place comment in order notes).
About Helle Specials:
The Helle Specials are small batches (5-30 knives) of existing Helle models in new & exclusive handle materials and steels. Helle makes one such small batch a quarter, varying both which models we do and what materials we use.
