Raud (Red) combines the durability and usability of the classic Scandinavian work knives – an important part of the Helle history. This year we add more folding knives to the same concept.

Raud S is slightly smaller than the M version, but still big enough for real work. For most hands the handle will fit a four-finger grip. A knife that is much bigger in life than what meets the eye.

The Raud S combined light weight with sturdy construction and a 2,7 mm thick blade. Small enough for pocket carry, but big enough for real work. For normal hands, the slow dried and deep oiled, red birch handle is just enough for a three -finger grip.

Helle, a third generation family owned company making high quality knives in Norway. The company was founded in 1932 and celebrate 90 years.

Tradition and craftmanship has been the lifestyle among the Helle family and its crafts people for more than three generations. At Helle we strongly believe that form matters and is an essential step in building all our products This lineage of edge and grain is as a torch we continue to pass on to the future generations of crafts people.

The generations old tradition of knifemaking has been passed on through the hands of the people in the small town in Norway. The goal of Helle has always been to produce high-quality tools not just made for nature but inspired by it. Working in tune with the very same surroundings that our parents did before us and with the aim to learn from, and protect this nature for future generations.

The knife has been one of mankind’s most important tools and this is still evident today across Scandinavia. Being aware of this gives us the pride we take in our work as we are one of the few remaining knife manufacturers in this tradition.
