    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.

    Fallkniven Three Kronor TK1

    The “Three Kronor” line blends the latest martensitic technologies with the ancient roots of the Swedish royal family.
    In fact, these knives are the only ones that can boast the royal symbol of three crowns placed on the blade and on the beautiful wooden box that contains the knife and sheath.
    The rolled steel used is currently one of the best industrial steels on the market and is composed of an inner sheet of SGPS from powder, a steel already used for the U2 model, at 62HRC coupled with two outer sheaths of VG2. The knives thus reveal exceptional cutting, penetration and edge-holding qualities.

    Blade: Three-layer rolled 3G steel (VG2 and SGPS “Super Gold Powder Stainless Steel” at 62 HRC)
    Handle: Cocobolo wood
    Blade length: 100 mm.
    Blade thickness: 4.5 mm.
    Total length: 215 mm.
    Weight: 145 g.
    Sheath: Black, leather
