Alden (Spring 2023)
$134.00
Description

  The Helle Alden is a mid-size knife with a secure grip for daily tasks. The Alden is an all-around 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.

  Named after the dramatic and historic island Alden, a landmark used for thousands of years by fishermen and travelers finding their way back from the big ocean.

Footprint sold separately.

Bear Grylls’ Company Will Host the World’s Deepest Marathon
  Those summer trail runs getting a bit too hot? I logged a ten-miler last week in Alabama, where I live, and it was so muggy I may have performed better if I’d been on a treadmill inside of a sauna.   This time of year, the thought of competing in a cool, underground race has its appeal.   That’s the idea proposed...

Legacy Optics Reign Supreme: Smith I/O Mag ChromaPop Ski Goggles Review
  A big winter storm descended on Vail’s back bowls, stopping me in my tracks. Light in the treeless China Bowl went completely flat — my ski goggles became even more essential. Snow swirled around me. It was impossible to distinguish the sky from the slope.   For possibly the first time in my 30 years of skiing, I stopped mid-run to...
Simplicity That Delivers: Smartwool Classic Thermal Merino Women’s Base Layers Review
  In a world full of flashy features, hybrid fabrics, and techy gear names, the Smartwool Classic Thermal Merino Crew Top and Bottom take a refreshingly straightforward approach.

Cyclists: Rivendell Has Crafted the Rear Derailleur of the Century
  In May, I went for a ride on the Mount Tam trails in Marin County, California, with Grant Petersen, the founder and owner of Rivendell Bicycle Works, and his buddy Dan Leto. It was a warm and sunny Sunday morning. As we were unloading the bikes from Dan’s car at the trailhead (and Grant was working on a flat), an...

What Happens When You Sit Around in Tight, Sweaty Clothes?
  We’ve all been there. Your workout is over. Maybe you did some yoga or a HIIT session. But you have an errand or prior commitment that you cannot skipagain. Perhaps youre so exhausted that you dont feel like moving, let alone going home, peeling off your sweaty clothes, taking a shower, scrubbing down, washing your hair, and maybe shaving all...
The FreeRun Leash Makes Running with My Dog a Breeze
  I was out on the trail with my dog, Bailey, letting my mind turn off and wander, when I saw another dog and its owner we didn’t know coming towards us. I had Bailey off-leash, and as a courtesy, I started fumbling to get her leash on her before our encounter. Before I could get Bailey clipped in, I looked...
Established Campgrounds Are Chaos—and I Love Them
  We pulled into the Crescent City KOA around 10 P.M. After a long day exploring the nearby Redwood National and State Parks, my travel partner and I were beat—and pretty sure we had to be the last people awake in this quiet seaside town.   Wrong. Rounding the corner into the rows of campers and tents, we were greeted by a...
What It Takes to Crew the Hardest Race on Earth
  Just past midnight somewhere along the long road between Darwin and Lone Pine, California, driving a car littered with Cheez-It boxes, baby wipes, and crushed cans of energy drinks and coffee, Andrew Boyd tried to decide if he should tell Kaylee Frederick something important. As the crew chief of Frederick’s third consecutive Badwater 135 run, Boyd was the keeper of...
