The front of the wooden handle, with alternating layers of dark wood and light bone separated by red spacers, is striking. The handle end cap and ferrule are made of brass. The scope of delivery includes a beautiful tanned leather sheath with richly decorated brass fittings. The carrying system consists of two rings, a belt distributor, and three leather straps. Carrying systems of this type were widespread in the Viking Age. The belt distributor was used to distribute the individual belts so that the Sax (Seax) sword or knife could be worn on the belt at an optimal angle for quick removal from the sheath.\u003cbr\u003e This knife 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 - Blade material: Damascus steel (256 layers, 4340 and 1070 steel), sharp edge\u003cbr\u003e - Handle material: wood and animal bone\u003cbr\u003e - Total length: approx. 23.5cm\u003cbr\u003e - Blade length: approx. 12 cm\u003cbr\u003e - Blade thickness: approx. 4 mm\u003cbr\u003e - Weight: approx. 130 g (approx. 230 g with case)\u003cbr\u003e - Leather and brass case with hanger\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.
