Helle Didi Galgalu 14C28N bushcraft knife
Helle
Two brothers, Steinar and Sigmund Helle started knife production in the old forge at their farm in 1932. The first set of knives was sold on a long trip over the mountains on a bicycle! Today, Helle knives are sold all around the world, but just as then, much of the production is done manually. The philosophy remains the same: no machine can replace skilled craftsmanship. Craftsmen with extensive experience and knowledge still take pride in making each and every Helle knife unique.
Didi Galgalu is a knife made for big adventurers. Designed in collaboration with the Voetspore team and worthy to take on any transcontinental adventure. Unique in both its design and the way it was developed.
Released in 2015, Didi was one of the first Helle knives with a full tang construction. In the past few years it has become a very popular model in bushcrafting circles, due to its combination of utility and beauty.
The knife itself is fairly big, suitable for medium to large hands. The shape of the handle offers a sturdy and safe grip even if held close to the blade, thanks to the double contoured handle. The handle is held in place by two sturdy brass rivets and a pipe rivet, where you can tie a cord or lanyard of leather.
The blade is thin enough to perform well as a knife should when cutting or carving, yet strong enough for heavier tasks. Shaped and grinded with a Scandi grind and sharpened to razor sharpness right out of the box. The Didi has been widely accepted internationally by the bushcraft and outdoor community.
Supplied with a sheath of high-quality black leather with a white stichingne, designed for secure carry.
