The Helle Eggen Knife stands as one of the most beloved models in the Helle collection, earning recognition as both a staff favorite and a trusted companion for outdoor enthusiasts worldwide. Designed by renowned knife designer Gunnar Lothe in 1998, the Eggen represents the pinnacle of Scandinavian knife craftsmanship and versatility.
The knife's most striking feature is its handle, meticulously crafted from a single piece of selected curly birch and finished to a lustrous satin polish. The ergonomic design flows seamlessly into a well-proportioned finger guard, providing both safety and comfort during extended use. The blade showcases Helle's expertise with triple-laminated stainless steel construction, featuring a subtle drop point shape and the signature scandi grind that delivers exceptional sharpness straight from the box.
As a true all-round knife, the Eggen excels across a wide range of outdoor tasks, from food preparation to woodcraft and general utility work. Each knife comes complete with a genuine high-quality leather sheath equipped with a belt loop for secure and convenient carry, making it an ideal companion for camping, hiking, and everyday outdoor adventures.
