Nord Sleipner Knife
Built for the Scandinavian wilderness and engineered for strength, control, and heavy outdoor use, Helle's Nord Sleipner Knife combines a full-tang 4 mm Sleipner steel blade, curly birch handle, and black leather sheath.
The Nord Sleipner Knife is designed to embody the rugged spirit of the north, where winters are long, summers are bright, and the wilderness demands resilience. This upgraded version of the Helle Nord replaces the original 3.7 mm stainless blade with a robust 4 mm Uddeholm Sleipner steel blade, offering extra weight and durability for chopping, batoning, and heavier bushcraft tasks.
Its thoughtfully shaped handle combines two grip positions: a forward grip for precision carving and detail work, and a rear grip for generating power when chopping. Crafted from curly birch with striking white liners, the handle blends traditional craftsmanship with modern outdoor innovation. The knife is paired with a sleek black leather sheath for secure carry and protection.
Strong, functional, and true to Scandinavian heritage, the Nord Sleipner is a trusted companion for explorers, survivalists, and anyone who takes the wilderness seriously.
