The Helle Nipa Folding Knife is a durable mid-sized folder designed and built to be used. Its convenient folding blade is made of 12C27 stainless steel with a scandi grind, and is extremely sharp right out of the box. It locks open with a spine lock system while in use.
The handle of the Nipa is sized for a full four-finger grip for small or medium hands, and a three-finger grip for larger hands. It is crafted from curly birch, and comes equipped with a removable clip that makes it comfortable to wear around the campsite or out on the trail.
This beautiful, practical knife is hand made in Holmedal, Norway by Helle's highly skilled artisans in the Helle factory, which is perched on the edge of a fjord.

The Helle Norway Story
Helle knives are crafted by hand in the Helle factory, which is situated in the village of Holmedal, Norway on the edge of a beautiful fjord. The factory was founded in 1932, and while it has evolved from the factory initially operated without electrical power, the hands of skilled craftsmen are still its cornerstone.
Helle knives, though beautiful, are made to be used and are rugged enough to stand up to the wild mountains, fjords and open seas that surround the factory. They are designed and made by people who use them in this wild environment. In other words, they stand up to the real world.
Each Helle knife is unique, as it is hand made from natural materials.
