Yup, I have one. Excellent knife for the money. If you have small hands you might not like it but you can also whittle the handle down to fit your needs. Other than that, it's a stout little scandi with all the quality you come to expect from Helle. The sheath is so so.

I have a Helle Futura. Nice knife from a company reputed to make nice knives.

Cheers guys,

How easy is the knife to sharpen? I know that stainless steel can be difficult, but thats why i want to try it.

Cheers,

You won't have a problem sharpening them. They sharpen as easily as any other scandi-ground blade out there.
