Helle Speider gut-04 Knife

Helle can trace the origin of these knives back to 1947, when they made the first scout knife with a red butt. The current designs with the girl and boy scout and their traditional scout outfits dates back to 1971.  

The knife was designed and is still today produced with two clear intentions. First, that even though the knife will be used by a child, it should be a proper tool. This means that it is sharp and has a functional handle suitable for smaller hands.

Second, that it is safe. The two-way guard prevents hands slipping onto the blade, and the snap-button sheath means that once properly stowed the knife will remain there after use.

Ask any Norwegian today what his or her first knife was, and the answer will be “speiderkniv med raud tupp”: The scout knife with the red butt.

Made in Norway.
