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.
Tre Kronor, the Swedish knife series, offers a highly advanced technological solution combined with timeless Swedish design. As the result of a long development process, we are the first company in the world to be able to offer a laminated knife blade in 3G steel, edged with sintered steel, or powder steel. To this edge steel, we have added a resilient, anticorrosive steel which stabilizes the hard center. This gives a rigid, strong blade that retains its edge extremely well. These Knives are in the Swedish minimalist idiom, where form harmonizes with function. The result is an edged implement that the user will find an easy and accomMODating knife a world-beater from Sweden.TK6 Tre Kronor Hunter.If there is a quality that hunters appreciate very much, I would suggest the edge retention! This blade is made of stainless laminate powdersteel which is combining both strength and edge retention. Most truly, you have never before handled a knife which holds up an edge better than this MODel. When the sharpness finally is gone, you restore the edge by using a fine, flat diamond whetstone, see or DC3 and DC4 MODels. You maintain your good knife by keeping it clean and dry and, should it get dirty, use some warm water and washing-up liquid, wipe off and let dry.
