The hand-forged EN45 high carbon steel blade features a distinctive shape, characteristic of broken back seax knives from the Viking Age. The bone grip is polished, etched, and terminates with a steel collar and butt cap, offering a unique and authentic design. The Viking seax comes with a thick, vegetable-tanned leather sheath, complete with antiqued brass fittings, reinforcing plates, rivets, and two hanging rings.
While the blade's edge is not sharpened, it is slightly ground (approx. 1 mm thick), making it suitable for display, collectible purposes, or as a prop. However, please note that this Viking knife is not intended for combat reenactment, as the blade's point is not rounded.
Each piece is fully handcrafted, ensuring its uniqueness, and variations in color and grain are inherent to the natural materials used. The steel used is not rust-proof, and regular maintenance is recommended, such as using Ballistol Universal Oil for steel care.
