The wooden handle with bone inlay has an oval cross-section and therefore fits firmly in the hand. The handle clamp and end cap are made of brass or steel. The handle cap also has a practical eyelet for attaching a lanyard (a leather strap is included).  \u003cbr\u003eThe beautiful vegetable-tanned leather sheath is decorated with elegant fittings. It is equipped with three carrying rings and a carrying system consisting of leather straps and strap distributors. This means the knife can be worn on a belt in typical Viking style.\u003cbr\u003e The knife is available with a brown handle and brown leather sheath with brass fittings or with a black handle and black leather sheath with steel fittings.\u003cbr\u003e This Sax (Seax) is designed as a collector's item or decorative object.   \u003cbr\u003e*The term \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ci\u003eDamascus steel\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ci\u003eDamascus steel\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e , or simply \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ci\u003eDamascus\u003c\/i\u003e refers to a composite steel made from two or more different types of steel. The name derives from the Syrian city of Damascus, which is considered an ancient stronghold and the origin of Damascus steel production. Typically, a hard, high-carbon steel and a soft, low-carbon steel are joined by repeated forging welding and folding. The high-carbon steel provides greater hardness, better hardenability, and longer edge retention, while the softer steel gives the blade greater elasticity and increased resistance to breaking. With this technology, which developed in a time of poor and changing steel qualities, the positive properties of different steels can be combined. Due to the different colors with different carbon contents, stunning patterns of alternating layers are created, such as the so-called \u003ci\u003etwist Damascus\u003c\/i\u003e or \u003ci\u003erose Damascus\u003c\/i\u003e . Because of these patterns, Damascus swords from the Middle Ages were said to have an inherent magic.\u003c\/strong\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDetails:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Blade material: Damascus steel (256 layers, 4340 and 1070 steel), sharp edge\u003cbr\u003e - Handle material: wood, animal bone, brass or steel\u003cbr\u003e - Total length: approx. 54 cm\u003cbr\u003e - Blade length: approx. 38 cm\u003cbr\u003e - Weight: approx. 470 g (approx. 950 g with case)\u003cbr\u003e - Leather case with hanger (brown with brass or black with steel)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The above specifications may vary slightly from copy to copy.\u003cbr\u003e At \u003cstrong\u003eTienda Medieval,\u003c\/strong\u003e we have thousands of medieval and other period products.
