In Norse mythology, Idun was the goddess of fertility, and responsible for guarding the apples that ensured the gods eternal youth. To many, she was also a symbol of love and rebirth, and in a poem she was referred to as the lover of the gods (ása leika). Unlike earlier MODels in the Northern Lights series, NL5 is a little rounder and softer in form, and therefore an excellent choice as a hunting knife. The straight, fairly generous grip in leather gives complete control over the powerful blade in laminate VG10 steel, and makes the knife a tool as attractive as it is effective in the hands of the experienced hunter.We can now present a world first as regards the blade - it's in laminated VG10 steel, where the edge is made of our now renowned VG10 steel and the sides consist of tough, all-stainless 420J2 steel. This combination is unquestionably the best, since it brings together all conceivable and desirable properties such as resilience, resistance to torque and edge-durability in a single blade. With laminate technology one can expect an additional 20% strength in the form of resistance to bending, as compared to an ordinary VG10 blade.
A lot has happened behind the scenes around this folding knife, but the aim has been the same from the word go - to produce a folding knife with a sensible size and attractive design. Since we have sold Folding Knives for more than thirty yeARS, we wanted to use that experience and make a knife that was practical, attractive and reliable. The P folder was born. From start with a blade in solid VG10, nowadays with a blade in laminate powder steel, our famous 3G stainless steel. The P folder is easy to clean since the back of the handle is open, something that makes it very suitable for hunting purposes. All MODels come with a black Cordura sheath, which attaches to the belt. In general, a folding knife can never be as strong as a sheath knife, and since it is the result of several hundred different work operations, it must of course be more expensive to manufacture. On the other hand it is in a handy format and acceptable in many situations, and finally - it is a really fun edged tool that primarily boys, down the ages - and of all ages! - have loved to play with. Inspired by the world-famous knifemaker R.W. Loveless, MOD. P is a symbiosis between advanced technology, genuine handicraft and timeless design - a knife for the MODern hunter. Today available with a handle in well-looking cocobolo or hi-tech carbon fiber.
