Helle pocket knives: compact cultural masterpieces
Helle pocket knives embody the compact side of Norwegian craftsmanship. Although Helle is best known for its high-quality Scandinavian bushcraft knives, Helle pocket knives have earned their own rightful place: light, portable, iconic in profile and size, and above all, reliable. They are small cultural masterpieces, ideal as a complement to your fixed blade knife. Use your fixed blade knife for your rough work and your Helle pocket knife for the finer tasks around the campfire.
Features of Helle pocket knives
Blade
Helle uses the same high standards for their pocket knives as for their fixed knives: high-quality steel with good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, such as Sandvik 12C27 or laminated stainless steel. The edge is often classic Scandinavian with a Scandi grind, ideal for outdoor use and everyday work.
Handle
As with its fixed knives, Helle uses beautiful materials such as curly birch, wood and micarta. This creates a natural look and a comfortable, ergonomic grip. The finish is neat and the appearance calm and refined.
Locking mechanism
Many Helle pocket knives have a solid backlock. This is a logical choice for a bushcraft pocket knife because of its reliable and secure locking mechanism.
Helle pocket knife series
Helle Raud M
The Raud M is a mid-size pocket knife that combines Helle's recognisable style with everyday usability. The subtle finger grooves make it comfortable to hold. The removable pocket clip allows for both left- and right-handed carrying.
Helle Kletten
The Kletten is one of Helle's smallest pocket knives: a true EDC with Scandinavian design, ideal for woodworking and light bushcraft tasks.
Helle Nipa
Slightly larger than the Kletten and Berget, but more compact than the Bleja, the Nipa strikes a middle ground. The knife remains true to Helle's minimalist style and offers some extra hand volume without compromising on portability.
Helle Bleja
The Bleja is larger and sturdier than the Nipa and is intended as an all-round outdoor pocket knife. Thanks to its size and robust construction, it is suitable for heavier tasks.
Helle Berget
The Berget, Helle's first model with micarta handles, has a compact size similar to the Kletten. The knife combines portability with a striking, stylish design.
