The Hyperborean is a truly outstanding one of a kind knife and was made to fit with a series of other knives themes. Named after Greek mythology, Hyperborea, mythical people who lived "beyond the North Wind".

Mystical Narwhal tusk graces the handle of this large dagger. The tusk has only been lightly polished so as to leave the natural wear marks in it. A forged to shape guard that was sculpted to reveal the layers of Damascus within makes for an impressive "blade" catcher, that is structurally solid and visually stunning. The "leaves" on it have colorful ammonite inset into gold.

Sculpted 14 ct gold rings compliment the transition between the Narwhal and Damascus and add a subtle brilliance. The pommel was shaped to compliment the overall flow of the design. Not stopping at a simple finish to the rear of it, it features a brilliant ammonite stone in a spectacular color of blues and purples inset into gold. The business end of the dagger is a symmetrical ground M. Norris Stainless Ladder Damascus blade. The dagger can be fully disassembled, by removing the pommel as seen in the accompanying images. It is finished as nicely inside, as outside.

Overall Length: 16 1/4 " BL: 7 3/4" Thickness 1/4"

Shipping and Returns

Shipping & Returns

Simply all orders will be shipped insured via Canada Post or courier and will be individually packed for secure shipping.

Little known facts about shipping: FOB (ownership transfer point) is when the product is given to the shipping agent (carrier). Delivery to a carrier constitutes delivery to the customer, and risk of loss or damage to the products passes to the customer at this point. Products paid for and held by Haslinger Knives at customer’s request will be held at customer’s risk and expense. All loss and damage issues must be settled with the shipper. If needed, I will assist you to resolve any shipper disputes, though this process can be lengthy, so your patience is appreciated.

Returns

If you are not pleased with your order, please contact me — I will gladly assist. No returns on custom or personalized orders.

Returns must be approved and sent back in original condition, with all items included, securely packed and insured within 3 days of delivery. No used or altered items will be accepted. A restocking charge of 25% will apply. I do not accept COD returns. Items must be returned by regular mail, insured. Any other approved exchanges or returns are subject to customer liability for freight costs. Contact me before sending any returns.

International Customers

I welcome international purchases. Lost international shipments will not be replaced. Shipping insurance is recommended. Customers are responsible for all import duties, taxes, and required documents in their country.

All international shipments are sent via Canada Post or courier. Upon request, I can ship via other methods (which may be costly). Rates can be found on your carrier’s website. Non-deliverable parcels returned to me will incur return shipping charges billed to the customer.

If you want insurance, I will purchase it and bill you accordingly. All international purchases will be invoiced via PayPal. A PayPal account is not required to pay this invoice.

Customs and import regulations are governed by your country’s laws. It is your responsibility to be aware of import restrictions. Some materials may require extra documentation; I will help source this if informed. However, this does not guarantee your country allows import. Not responsible for items seized by customs officials.

Important: I will not undervalue shipments or mark them as gifts.
