The Nordlys Flatgrind (FG) is a very different sibling to the standard Nordlys. While the basic shape of the knife is the same, the FG version feels very different. Not only does it have a much thinner blade with a flat grind that means that it excels as a slicer rather than for heavier work, it is much more lightweight. In fact, the Nordlys FG measures in at 67% the weight of the standard version, primarily because of the thinner stock and a skeletonised handle.
Flat grinds on knives are popular because they provide a versatile balance of strength, sharpness and ease of maintenance. In a flat grind, the blade tapers evenly from the spine to the cutting edge, creating a V-shaped cross-section. This design reduces cutting drag, allowing the blade to slice more efficiently through materials like vegetables, meat and wood. Flat grinds also offer a thin edge, which makes them easy to sharpen and maintain.
As a result, the Nordlys FG is more adept at food preparation and other tasks that require fine cuts rather than heavier chores, which the standard Nordlys version excels at. The Nordlys FG stands out as the perfect choice for all those that want a knife for precision cutting.
