NL1 Thor
Mod. NL1 Thor is an impressive piece, which
leaves no one unmoved. The blade, a massive
one to say the least, in rust resistant laminated
steel expresses raw strength, combined with
a fantastic bite. It is clear to all that this is
an item intended solely for specialists, i.e.
woodsmen with long experience of using
edged implements. There is no doubt that this
is a chopper to withstand heavy use; but for
those who learn to handle the knife, it is also
a exible tool that can carry out practically
any job that might be required of a knife.
Magnicent and incredibly beautiful! A trusty
companion!
NL2 Oden
Together with Thor, the one-eyed Oden (or
Woden) was the highest-ranking god in the
Norse sagas. He was the ancestor of gods
and humans - riding his eight-legged horse
Sleipner and accompanied by his bearers of
knowledge, the two ravens Hugin and Munin,
he was the undisputed ruler of Valhalla. Mod.
NL2 Oden is a powerful, versatile knife with rust
resistant blade in our well-known laminated
VG10 steel. Its chopping ability is excellent
and the knife is extremely well balanced. The
well-made leather handle darkens with age,
acquiring a beautiful patina the more the knife
is used.
NL3 Njord
Njord was the god of fertility in the Norse
sagas and was of the Vanir clan. He was also
the god of sailors and sher men, the ruler of
the coasts and shores. Mod NL3 Njord is a
powerful knife, well balanced and a pleasure
to use. It is hard to nd a better-looking all-
round knife and its strength, of course, lies in
the laminated VG10 steel.
NL4 Frej
Frej was the god of peace in the Norse sagas,
but also a god of fertility and prosperity. He
was the king of trolls and elves, beings that
until quite recently were a reality in the old
farming society. Mod. NL4 Frej is not merely a
beautiful and compact knife - since the blade is
in laminated VG10 steel, the knife is relatively
strong. Frej is a slender, well- balanced knife
of the highest quality, completely hand made,
like the larger models. A friend in the woods
and elds.
NL5 IDUN
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 for a hunting knife. The
straight, fairly generous grip in leather gives
complete control over the powerful blade in
laminated VG10 steel, and makes the knife a
tool as attractive as it is effective in the hands
of the experienced hunter.
NL5cx IDUN
It is our pleasure to present one of the world’s
most advanced hunting knives – Mod. NL5cx
Idun, with a blade in Cowry X Damascus steel.
This is probably the world’s best edge steel,
in all categories, and denitely one of the
most exclusive blades ever made. The edge
comprises a powder steel with the following
extreme content: C 3%, Cr 20%, Mo 1%, V
0.3% and iron to 100%. Its hardness is no
less than 64 HRC! The sides consist of rust
resistant, 120-layer Damascus steel, and with
the edge of powdered steel, we have formed
a blade, which in its beauty and strength is no
less than world class. The ttings are of solid
nickel silver, while the rest of the handle is in
stacked leather and bre washers. The knife
is produced as a very limited edition, which
means that demand is sometimes greater
than supply. The knife is an excellent tool for
all, but in all probability, most customers will
acquire it for its exclusive collectability.
