Small Viking knife with Damascus blade and wooden handle,
After a discovery on Gotland
This handmade Viking knife features a razor-sharp blade made of 256-layer Damascus steel*. The handle is made of wood, and the handle brace and end cap are made of brass. The handle cap has a practical eyelet for attaching a lanyard or easily removing the knife from its sheath. The beautiful tanned leather sheath with ornately decorated brass fittings is equipped with a carrying loop. This allows the Viking knife to be comfortably worn on a belt.
The knife owes its name to an archaeological find from the 9th/10th century. The original piece, found in Hellvi (Gotland, Sweden), can now be admired in the Historical Museum ( Historiska Museet ) in Stockholm.
This Gotland knife is designed as a collector's item or decorative object.
*The term Damascus steel , Damascus steel , or simply Damascus 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 twist Damascus or rose Damascus . Because of these patterns, Damascus swords from the Middle Ages were said to have an inherent magic.

The above specifications may vary slightly from copy to copy.
The steel used here is not stainless and may show slight signs of corrosion. We recommend regular maintenance of the blade, for example with Ballistol, a universal oil ideal for preserving steel products.
Since wood is a natural product, variations in color and/or grain are quite normal. Therefore, no two handles of this Viking knife are alike, and the images above are for illustrative purposes only.
