Helle Lifetime Warranty: Helle knives are made to withstand the strains they are subjected to in the Norwegian outdoor environment. That is why Helle uses triple laminated stainless steel in their blades. This results in an almost unbreakable blade which stays sharp for much longer. The steel Helle uses is more expensive than in most other knife brands, but that is all a part of Helle"s philosophy of no compromise on quality. Just like those great outdoor experiences, a Helle knife is made to last. That"s why Helle gives a liftetime warranty against faults in materials and manufacture.
