Fallkniven

NL4L

Frey was the god of peace in the Norse sagas, but also the god who rules over fertility and prosperity. He was king of trolls and elves, beings that until recently were an everyday part of life in the farming community. Mod. NL4 Frey is not merely a beautiful and neat knife – since the blade is in laminated VG10 steel, the knife is relatively strong, and not at all clumsy. When it comes to the Northern Light Series nothing has been spared to make the knife as strong, beautiful and comfortable as possible. The knife is a pleasure to look at and a thrill to use.

NL4 Frey is a strong and balanced knife with fantastic handling. It is difficult to find a more attractive blade and, of course, its strength lies in VG10 rolled steel.When it comes to the Northern Light series, nothing has been spared to make the knife as strong, beautiful and comfortable as possible. It is a pleasure to look at this knife and exciting to use it.

The blade is made of VG10 laminated steel, where the cutting edge is made with the famous VG10 steel and the sides in resistant stainless steel 420J2. This combination is good, since it brings together all conceivable and desirable properties, such as strength, torsional strength and durability of the edge on a single sheet. A 6 mm thick sheet in itself would be strong enough for most tasks: with the rolling technology you can expect an additional 20% flexural strength, compared to a normal VG10 sheet.

The handle is made of specially selected ox leather: unfortunately a material that manufacturers often overlook, but that offers a secure and resistant grip. It ages beautifully and, as the years go by, acquires an attractive brown patina, which is not affected by oil or solvents and is impervious to water. Dryness can cause small cracks in the handle, but they disappear when the knife is reused. We persist with the convex edge, since Fallkniven considers this to be the best combination of cutting performance and edge resistance, and of course, the Frey NL4 blade presents this.

Anyone who knows something about the manufacture of knives knows that such an edge can only be done by hand, and that is why 99.99% of all knives do not have that type of edge. Knives in general, of course, are mass produced, where robots and CNC grinders (numerically controlled by computer) shape the blades as best they can. The machines are loaded with piles of sheets so that production can take place 24 hours a day and the result is often really good: good knives at reasonable prices. However, if you want superior blade resistance, corrosion resistance, edge durability and design, the machine that approximates the craftsmanship of a trained locksmith has not been invented. Therefore, we are proud to be able to present our Northern Light series, aware that only the most quality conscious will appreciate your assets.
