Helle Nord Bushcraft Knife - Sleipner Tool Steel

The largest full tang knife in Helle's lineup. The Nord knife is developed to meet the demands of the Scandinavian Wilderness. With a 3.7 mm thick Sleipner Tool Steel blade and a sharp shine it will take on most challenges thrown at it. Still thin enough for cutting properties and strong enough for most tasks on your adventures.

Sleipner is a high-alloy tool steel developed by Uddeholm that offers a good balance between toughness and edge retention. As such it fits well in a small knife that will see a lot of use for a variety of purposes. Extra care must be kept to keep the knife from developing rust.
