The Viking is the revision of a Helle classic that was originally produced as a part of a fund-raiser for an around-the-world expedition in a Viking longship.
The handle is barrel shaped, but tapered to give the knife a distinct grip even if it is not contoured. It offers beauty in its simplicity and has become a modern classic, even if the design is more than a 1000 years old.
The knife works really well with all size hands, but should only be used by those of you that have more experience. No finger guard here, so think before use.
The knife is equipped with a rather thick blade, made of laminated carbon steel. Black to its finish, straight from heat treatment. Its narrow tang reaches all the way through the handle and is pinned old style with a diamond shaped washer.
Viking comes with a traditional back sewn leather sheath to hang in its leather loop on the belt.
This knife will rust if not maintained.

Customer Reviews
My favorite EDC knife! Well done! ODIN!
This is my only Helle knife at the moment, and I have been using it for almost 3 years and it is still perfect. Strong blade, very comfortable handle and a really simple look, very fitting for an old school knife like this one. Really raccomanded.
This is my third Helle knife, and it doesn’t disappoint. This knife feels amazing in the hand, and is a beautiful example of a classic Helle knife.
I believe this is my 10th Helle Knife. Strong durable as well as a piece of Art. Love my new Viking!!
