This one was designed and created by Svein-Erik Helle. A true traditional Helle member. One of 2 Limited Editions this year! This Extremely attractive knife starts with a very highly polished version of their Traditional Triple Laminated steel with a slight false edge/swedge on the spine. The Handle features some beautiful curly birch in combination with the antler inlets and dyed green Leather. The sheath, made with the original 1930s style Helle print on it, is done in classic tan leather with white stitching to match the antler horn (Steinar Helle's Favorite material). This one has a slightly longer handle than the other 2022 Limited Edition
This beautiful knife is not only a great addition to any collection but also designed to be a top notch user. I really like what they did this year for both of them.

Maintenance
Helle knives are designed to retain their sharpness as a lifelong outdoors companion. But it is still important to take care of your knife and its sheath.
- The Handle. Dry the handle with a soft cloth if wet and wax occasionally.
- The Sheath. The leather needs to be impregnated occasionally with colourless impregnation agent (grease or wax) to keep supple. Dry the sheath carefully in room temperature if it becomes wet.
- The Blade. Wipe the blade with a soft cloth if wet and treat with grease occasionally.
Sharpening
Use a diamond tool or a wet stone for sharpening. Place the knife bevel flat to the sharpening tool and work the entire blade. Work one side until you can feel a slight burr on the opposite side. Switch side and repeat the procedure until you feel the burr on the first side. You have now established an edge.
Remove the burr by stroking the blade gently over the sharpening surface on both sides, as if cutting very thin slices. Keep the bevel flat towards the sharpener and move from side to side until the burr is gone.
