The Viking is the revision of a Helle classic that was originally produced as a part of a fund-raiser for an around-the-world expedition in a Viking longship.
The handle is barrel shaped, but tapered to give the knife a distinct grip even if it is not contoured. It offers beauty in its simplicity and has become a modern classic, even if the design is more than a 1000 years old.
The knife works really well with all size hands, but should only be used by those of you that have more experience. No finger guard here, so think before use.
The knife is equipped with a rather thick blade, made of laminated carbon steel. Black to its finish, straight from heat treatment. Its narrow tang reaches all the way through the handle and is pinned old style with a diamond shaped washer.
Viking comes with a traditional back sewn leather sheath to hang in its leather loop on the belt.
This knife will rust if not maintained.

Open hereI’ve had this knife since my 15th birthday until now. I am 23. Still a daily carrier for me. I’ve used it from splitting wood and skinning deer to carving chess pieces. Worth every penny
It can be thrown incorrectly with only the grief of a cleft lip to marr the bark of gilded leaves.
as only the oars of the sick,
know of roads without
The knife seems solidly built, and definitely conjures images of Ragnar Lothbrok. It’s definitely a great conversation piece, and I expect it will hold up equally well to real use!
Impressed by the build quality, attention to detail, and of course the fancy tube it came in. Beautiful Puukko style knife, among the best I could find off-the-shelf.
This is my third Helle knife, and it doesn’t disappoint. This knife feels amazing in the hand, and is a beautiful example of a classic Helle knife.
