The Viking is the revision of a Helle classic that wat originally produced as a part of a fund-raiser for an around-the-world expedition in a Viking longship. Originally designed as a replica of real Viking knives from back in the days…..The handle is barrel shape but with a tapered shaped 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 ints 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.Comes with a traditional back sewn leather sheath to hang in its leather loop on the belt. This knife will rust if not maintained.
