Idun is a deity in Norse mythology, known as the keeper of the apples of eternal youth. These magical apples grant immortality to the gods who consume them, keeping them eternally young and vigorous. Idun plays a crucial role in the Norse pantheon, as without her apples, the gods would begin to age. A famous myth tells of how Loki kidnapped her under the order of the giant Thjazi, causing the gods to age rapidly until her release. Her connection to youth and vitality makes her a central figure in Norse mythology.

Fällkniven AB celebrates its 40th anniversary in the international knife market with a special version of its bestseller, the F1 Pilot survival knife, now made of high-quality Swedish steel (Elmax).
