Helle GT 14C28N Knife
The Helle GT is a longtime favourite, and has been in the Helle lineup since 1997. It has a big fanbase in many parts of the world for its characteristic look mixed with traditional Scandinavian knife design.
This version of the GT knife was released in 2022, with a new 14C28N Stainless Steel blade. The GT looks like a friendly giant, and behaves like one! With new steel, this proven workhorse can take on an even wider array of tasks.
To make the GT 14C28N more distinguishable from the original design, it has been dressed up with a genuine black leather sheath with white stitching.
The GT has a barrel-shaped handle in curly birch, suitable for most hand sizes and long enough to fit big hands. The aluminum fingerguard offers protection from the 14C28N stainless-steel blade. The blade has a classic scandi grind that has been hand polished to offer an out-of-the-box hair popping sharpness.
The knife comes with a snap type leather sheath of genuine black high-quality leather.
The name GT is short for the German Globetrotter company, which during a visit to the Helle factory, contributed to the design by adding some adjustments to an earlier Gunnar Lothe design.
