Interview

Helle knives are designed to ensure their sharpness as an outdoor companion for life. But it is still important to take good care of your knife and its sheath.

Manage

If the handpiece is wet, dry it with a soft cloth. It needs to be waxed from time to time.

In order to retain its elasticity, the leather must be protected from time to time with a colorless impregnation (grease or wax) to retain its elasticity. If the leather gets wet, dry it thoroughly at room temperature.

Edge

If the blade is wet, wipe it with a soft cloth, lubricate it with oil from time to time.

Sharpening

Use diamond tools or wet stone for sharpening. Place the edge of the knife flat against the stone and work with the whole blade. Sharpen one edge until you feel a slight burr on the opposite side. Change the sharpening side and repeat the procedure until you feel a burr on the first side. This is how you set the edge angle.

Remove burrs by gently stroking the cutting surfaces of the blade on both sides. Keep the edges flat in the direction of sharpening and smooth them alternately until the burrs disappear.

If the blade is very dull or damaged, use a fine grit stone and plenty of water to sharpen it until you get a rough look. Use plenty of coolant and never sharpen a knife on a dry stone. The heated surface of the edge loses its properties given to it by heat treatment in the production process and destroys the blade.
