A nice knife

This was my first Helle but not my first scandi style knife. The handle is comfortable and the guard and pommel hold my hand in place well, it’s also a gorgeous piece of wood. The blade is very nicely polished, the grind is even and it came shaving sharp. I believe it’s a true scandi grind but i’ll probably put a micro bevel on it. It carves well, and even stood up to some light batonning without any trouble. The spine of the blade is smooth and rounded and will not strike a ferro rod. That’s not a problem for me but it’s worth mentioning. The sheath holds it well, but it does feel a little plastic and won’t take hardly any oil. Overall I give the knife 5/5, though I would like a sheath made of full grain leather, even if it was raw and needed a good oiling.

Description

Fjellkniven is a traditional all-purpose belt knife, which now comes with a 12C27 steel blade – same design and feel, only now with a non-laminated blade.

The stainless steel blade is shaped for a wide range of every-day chores. The comfortable grip is shaped to keep your hands off the blade. Fjellkniven comes with the traditional pouch style sheath that does not require a keeper strap.

The name Fjellkniven translates from Norwegian to Mountain knife.

Delivered with a traditional pouch style sheath of genuine high-quality leather.
