Helle Raud M folding knife
Folding everyday use knife (EDC) stylistically referencing traditional Norwegian outdoor knives. It features a Drop-Point profile blade made of Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel, finished with the satin method. The handle scales are made of oiled red birch wood, and the knife is opened using a nail notch. Safe usage is ensured by a solid Back Lock type lock.
Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel
The blade is made from Swedish Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel. Thanks to the material's high purity and fine-grained structure, the steel offers very good cutting properties, high durability, and an additional chromium content ensures very high corrosion resistance. After heat treatment, it reaches a hardness level of 53–59 HRC, maintaining good impact toughness and ease of sharpening.
Drop-Point profile, Scandi Grind
The Drop-Point profile blade has a length of 69 mm and a thickness of 2.7 mm. The smooth cutting edge is executed with Scandi Grind, which provides very good cutting properties and facilitates precise woodworking and field use. The blade is finished with the satin method, giving it an aesthetic, semi-matte surface and increasing resistance to minor scratches during use. The blade geometry combines high cutting efficiency with great blade strength.
Handle scales made of oiled birch wood
The ergonomically shaped handle, ensuring safe and comfortable knife use, is made of oiled red birch wood. The model is equipped with a springy, steel clip that can be removed for convenient carrying. At the end of the handle, there is a lanyard hole, additionally reinforced with a metal fitting.
Back Lock
The knife is opened using a classic nail notch, highlighting its traditional character and simplicity of operation. Once opened, the blade is locked by a proven Back Lock mechanism, providing stable blade locking and enhancing user safety.
