Skog - Beechwood
Skog was named after the Scandinavian word for forest, was inspired by evenings sitting around the campfire as an outdoor companion for woodcarving. It is slightly more robust than typical carving knives to pro-vide versatility for tasks around camp. A very small finger notch helps guide the grip without limiting the hold. This design delivers the best possible precision when holding the knife close to the blade for carving. The Skog features a handcrafted beechwood handle paired with a 3-inch blade made of Helle’s triple laminated steel. Each knife comes with a traditional sheath made of rich brown leather. Overall length: 7¾”
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.
