Fällkniven - Thor Northern Light NL1 Outdoor Knife
Model NL1 Thor. It is a powerful cleaver of world-class quality, where no expense was spared to make the knife as strong, beautiful, and comfortable as possible. The knife is a pleasure and a thrill to use. The blade is made of laminated VG100 steel, with the cutting edge made of our well-known VG100 steel and the sides made of tough, fully stainless 2J2 steel. This combination is good as it combines all conceivable and desirable properties such as durability, torque resistance, and edge retention in one. A 7 mm thick blade would be strong enough for most tasks - in laminate technology, compared to a conventional VG10 blade, one can expect an additional strength of 20% in terms of flexural strength
Anyone who has used a cleaver knows that it is designed for heavy-duty use, which places high demands on the blade and handle. Our handle is made of specially selected cowhide: unfortunately a material that is often overlooked by manufacturers, but it provides a secure and sturdy grip. It ages beautifully over the years, developing an attractive brown patina, is unaffected by oil and solvents, and is waterproof. Dryness can lead to small cracks in the handle, which will disappear when the knife is used again
We insist on the convex grind, as we consider this to be the ultimate combination of cutting performance and edge retention, and of course, our NL1 Thor knife features it. Anyone who knows about knife making is aware that such a blade can only be created by hand, which is why 99,99% of all knives do not have this type of edge. Knives in general are of course produced in series, with CNC (Computer Numerically Controlled) robots and grinding machines shaping the blades as well as possible. The machines are equipped with stacks of blades, so that production can run 24 hours a day and the result is often really good - good knives at affordable prices. However, if you desire the highest strength, corrosion resistance, edge retention, and design, a machine has not been built that can come close to the craftsmanship of a trained, experienced knife maker. Therefore, we are very proud to present the first model of our Northern Lights series. The Fällkniven - Thor Northern Light NL1 outdoor knife, which is aware that only the most quality-conscious individuals will appreciate its benefits. It was obvious to give this cleaver the name of the strongest and most powerful god of the Aesir, the ruler of the Aesir's house, Asgard, the strong, red-bearded thunder god - Thor
The knife comes with a black, high-quality leather sheath
