Helle introduces the Nordlys: the ultimate all-round outdoor knife

After two years of hard work, Helle proudly presents the Nordlys: the newest member in their family of all-round outdoor knives. Inspired by the larger Nord model, the Nordlys is designed to be a smaller, lighter and versatile version, perfect for bushcrafters, hunters and knife enthusiasts.

An homage to the Northern Lights

The name Nordlys, Norwegian for 'Northern Lights', expresses light and beauty, a fitting name for such a stunning knife. With a handle of 12.4 cm, the Nordlys is 1.3 cm shorter than the Nord, but still offers enough room for different ways to grip the knife. Perfect for precise cutting tasks and heavy-duty work alike.

Compact yet powerful

The 12.2-cm long drop-point blade features a classic scandi edge, ensuring the perfect balance between sharpness and durability. The blade is made from 14C28N stainless steel, a strong and corrosion-resistant type of steel. The thickness of 3.1 mm makes the blade robust, without being too thick or heavy. At a total weight of 210 g, this knife is relatively lightweight and easy to handle.

Tested by experts

In recent years, the Helle team has extensively tested the Nordlys during various outdoor activities such as long and short hikes, camping and bushcrafting activities. This knife has proven itself in food preparation, making tinder, creating sparks using a firesteel and wood carving. Feedback from ambassadors and testers is unanimously positive: the Helle Nordlys is a versatile knife that excels in all kinds of situations, without being heavy enough to bother you when you carry it.
