Description
Morgon (which means morning or dawn in Norwegian) has been designed both to be a functional and well-working outdoor tool and to visually represent that 2021 is a year of new beginnings. The handle pattern features dark oak in combination with yellow dyed leather inlets, reflecting the first morning rays shining through the darkness. The dark brown sheath reflects the colors of the knife handle with its yellow stitching. It also features an imprint of the first morning light shining through a dense winter forest. This imprint matches on both sides of the sheath. Finally, the blade is a highly polished version of Helle’s triple laminated stainless steel – perfect for reflecting those early morning rays of sun. This combines as an heirloom knife mean to capture the essence of what 2021 is for Helle – a fresh and nature-centred start to a new year coming after what was for many a dark 2020.
4⅛” triple laminated stainless steel drop point blade with a dark oak and leather handle. Includes leather belt sheath. Overall length: 8¼”
Since early times, the Norwegian knife has been an important companion in everyday life. Norwegian knife manufacturing today is clearly influenced by traditional shapes and materials that were established hundreds of years ago. A well-made leather sheath and handles of wood, leather, and antler seem to be a legacy that Norwegians want to preserve. A/S Helle Fabrikker is dedicated to honoring this legacy by developing knives that are on the leading edge of technology, yet still maintain the traditional look and feel of a truly Norwegian knife. Unique in Helle knives is the laminated stainless steel used to produce a tough, razor-sharp blade. The technology was developed by their company in cooperation with a Norwegian steel mill. This high performance steel is available only in their knives and gives each blade a unique combination of high strength and long lasting sharpness. Laminated steel is another Norwegian tradition that is rarely found in other parts of the world.
The Morgon will only be available in 1000 examples, all printed with the “Helle L21” logo.
