Guided by History. Crafted for the Present. Ready for the Wild.

From the windswept cliffs of Norway to the heart of the Gulf Coast, the Helle Alden Knife is built to guide and serve—just like the island it’s named after. Alden is a historic Norwegian island that has helped fishermen and explorers navigate home for generations, and the knife that carries its name is no different. Purposeful, reliable, and beautifully crafted, the Helle Alden is a mid-sized, all-purpose blade ready for both daily tasks and wilderness use.

At Red Beard’s Outfitter, we offer this exceptional blade exclusively in-store, so you can feel its balance, examine its craftsmanship, and choose a knife that truly fits your hand—and your journey.


A Balanced Blade for Land and Sea

The Alden is an ideal all-rounder—not too large, not too small—with a 105 mm (4.13 in) blade crafted from high-performance 12C27 stainless steel, known for its toughness and corrosion resistance. Whether you're prepping food at camp, carving gear, or working near saltwater, the Alden excels in both precision and resilience.

  • Blade Shape: Subtle drop point for control and versatility

  • Blade Grind: Traditional Scandi grind, easy to maintain and ideal for slicing, carving, and bushcraft

  • Blade Thickness: 3.0 mm / 0.118 in—thin enough for finesse, stout enough for reliability

  • Blade Construction: Stick tang for durability with reduced weight


Crafted Handle with a Fisherman’s Heritage

Designed for medium to large hands, the handle of the Alden is made from curly birch, shaped with ergonomic curves and finished to a satin polish. A pronounced finger guard and stainless-steel bolster offer safety and control, even when working in slick conditions.

The Alden’s handle reflects the essence of its namesake—a landmark that has guided sailors through uncertain waters for thousands of years. This is a knife designed to fit the hand like an old friend, offering comfort over long use and a tactile connection to the craft of the outdoors.


Carry It With Confidence

Included with the knife is a genuine leather sheath with a secure belt loop, handcrafted to match the high standards of the blade itself. The sheath holds the Alden snugly while allowing for quick access when needed.
