A New Box of Knifes Have Arrived: Helle and Wetterlings Axe

I came home to a box awaiting me. I knew what it was — tracking numbers and all. It is a box of Helle knives and a Wetterlings axe.


Helle Knives, Wetterlings Axe
I got four Helle knives and one Wetterlings axe. The Helle knives are in the tubes above the axe.


Helle 'Alden' Knife
This model is the Alden. It is a fixed blade stainless steel blade with a curly birch handle, leather sheath with a belt loop.


Helle Viking Fixed Blade Knife
Helle Viking. This is a carbon steel knife, and the blade is not polished after heat treating, so it has it's natural finish. Curly birch handle. The Viking's sheath has the Norwegian type belt loop — which is a loose leather loop. The advantage to this design is that it allows the knife/sheath free movement so that when you sit down or drive the sheath moves out of the way.


Helle Dokka Folding Knife
Helle — as I remember — makes only one folding knife, this Dokka. Curly birch handles and leather sheath.


Helle Temagami Fixed Blade Knife
The last knife is this Temagami fixed blade.



Wetterlings Backcountry Hatchet
The Wetterlings axe. This model is the Backcountry Hatchet.

The Wetterlings ax has a leather sheath, here it is pictured with the sheath removed.
