Helle Knives

[A-savvy]

I am kind of new to the knife world. My brother wants one of these knifes and I wanted to know what you experts thought of these. I searched but could not find a thread on this. He would probably use the knife for everything, hunting, fishing, camping, ect. Thank you for your opinions and help in advance.

Helle knives are good quality blades for reasonable prices. They are very very sharp knives.

Saw one of these knives at a shop called Nurpu in Fishers/Noblesville. They are beautiful knives and I have been wanting one since.

They have a couple knives that they describe as an "all-around" knife. I forget which ones they are but one of those would probably work for him.

Helle makes great stuff. If you've never owned a Scandi ground knife, your in for a treat when you sharpen it.

Thanks everyone for your feedback. I went to nurpu, its not to far from my house and they had three or four in the case but not the one I was looking for which was the fossekallen. I brought the whole list of helle knives in and pointed out the one I wanted. He said he could order any of them and I could pick it up at nurpu. Hope my brother likes it! Thanks again

I carry a "Helle" as a neck knife, it is a great knife and "My go to"!!!,... I can cut wood with mine and then go right to skinning chores and it stays sharp with little effort and makes cutting a joy!
I would dare say that there are several Scandinavian companies that produce fantastic laminated (layered carbon steel), "Puka" blades in a variety of styles designed to fit the hand. Several of these companies will produce a less expensive knife with a stainless blade,... Now don't get me wrong here, stainless steel is capable of making a great blade, but once you have tried one of these Scandinavian laminated (layered carbon steel), blades, you will spoil yourself and won't go back!
There is also a whole world out there for collecting them,... Yet another great way to spend money!

I was playing with a BraKar yesterday at my local outdoor shop. Don't know if I can keep fighting off the urge to buy it.
