Helle Knife????

Bernie Link · January 6, 2013, 07:02 PM

A friend gave me a Helle Knife about 35 years ago. Can anyone tell me when it was made, how much it's worth, etc.? On the box it reads: A/S Helle, Fabrikker, Norway. On the end of the box it reads: 61. It has what looks like a shield on the box and on the top of the shield it reads: HELLE - RARD or BARD (the bottom of the letters are worn off so it's hard to read). On the knife it reads: BERGANS, troll, NORWAY and just above the bolster it reads: HIGH CARBON EDGE. It seems to be a laminated steel blade with an aluminum bolster and butt with a dark wood handle.

I have a picture if it would be helpful.

Mine was given to me in 1947 ! Helle is a large knife maker in Norway. Various knives ,all fixed blades IIRC.They often use laminated blades.
