The Wabakimi is the perfect knife to relaunch with the new tool steel in our lineup: Sleipner.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSleipner is a high-alloy tool steel developed by Uddeholm that offers a good balance between toughness and edge retention. As such it fits well in a small knife that will see a lot of use for a variety of purposes. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Wabakimi is such a knife. Developed as the last of our line of knives with Les Stroud, it combines the knowledge of knife use of a true outdoorsman and the history and craftsmanship in the Helle team to make a knife that is short and stocky in the best of ways. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Wabakimi comes with a half-full tang construction, where the blade steel is visible all along the spine of the handle, but not towards the fingers. This makes the knife better to use in the cold climates in the far north. It also gives the knife extra strength, thanks to the thick and solid construction from the full length tang. The spine works well as a striker for ferro rods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rich birch handle is hand sanded to its final shape and given a beautiful satin finish. The smooth and rounded shape makes it a perfect tool for long and hard work, without giving any hotspots. The tang is held in place by two thick brass rivets and a pipe rivet in the back. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe knife comes in a classic leather sheath for belt carry. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a tool steel knife, the knife will rust if exposed to water or humidity over time. Wipe down and re-oil after use. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWabakimi - Sleipner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e135 g \/ 4.76 oz\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBlade material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eUddeholm Sleipner\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBlade thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e3,1 mm \/ 0.122 inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBlade length\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e80 mm \/ 3.14 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBlade construction\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFull tang (Full length and ¾ wide)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eHandle material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCurly birch\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eHandle length\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e115 mm \/ 4.51 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSheath material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eGenuine leather\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDesign by\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLes Stroud \u0026amp; Helle\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDesign year\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2018\/2023\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Helle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40200416460894,"sku":"1630","price":209.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0170\/8972\/4516\/files\/helle-helle-wabakimi-sleipner.webp?v=1743620472","url":"https:\/\/oppalachianoutfitters.shop\/products\/helle-wabakimi-sleipner-1630","provider":"Appalachian Outfitters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
