Alden is a mid-size knife with a secure grip for daily tasks. Named after the dramatic and historic island Alden. A landmark with historic value and still used by fishermen and travelers finding their way back from the big ocean for thousands of years.
Alden is a mid-size all-round knife with a classic design, shaped for medium to large hands. Its well-shaped curly birch handle is polished to a satin finish with a distinct fingerguard and stainless-steel bolster towards the blade.
The mid-size long blade has a slight drop point shape, and the steel used is Sandvik 12C27 with a classic scandi grind. A perfect steel for its toughness and corrosion resistance, well suited for outdoor activities near the ocean.
Delivered with a sheath of genuine high-quality leather and a belt loop for secure carry on the belt.

I purchased the fire kit a few weeks ago to throw in my backpack and have been really impressed. The ferro rod and striker work amazingly well, it throws sparks far better than my store-bought Coghlan’s Magnesium Fire Starter. The included wick and bellows are a great touch. once you fluff the fibers a bit it lights up easily and maintains a flame . i will supplement some of my own tinder to store in tin for later as the "tipi" is only single use
