Klevset or Kløvset[1][2] is a village in the municipality of Halsa in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It lies on the shore of Skålvik Fjord along County Road 350. The island of Bårsetøya lies just offshore in the fjord.[3] The name of the village was recorded as Klauset in the 16th century.[4][5]

A small boatyard, J M Kleivset Båtbyggeri,[6] formerly operated in Klevset. Among other vessels, it built three smacks for use by priests in the reconstruction of Finnmark after the Second World War.[7][8]
