Used by both men and women, it was a versatile sword, serving as a weapon of war, an everyday tool, or a prestige item. Extant examples demonstrate that this special type of knife or dagger could vary greatly not only in shape and design, but also in quality (finds range from simple, crudely crafted examples to magnificent, lavishly decorated display pieces) and size.   \u003cbr\u003eIn terms of size, the handmade Viking Sax (Seax) knife we ​​offer here is somewhere between a long dagger and a short sword. It has an unsharpened, single-edged EN45 spring steel blade with a strong spine, a pointed tip, and a full tang screwed into the pommel. The guard and pommel are made of steel, and the handle section with a wooden core is tightly wrapped with wire. All components are blackened, making the handle a real eye-catcher and giving the early medieval knife an elegant, yet dark and rustic character.\u003cbr\u003e The Viking dagger comes with a sturdy, high-quality sheath made of 4mm thick vegetable-tanned leather with beautiful braided stitching.\u003cbr\u003e This Viking Sax (Seax) is designed as a collector's item or decorative object, but it is also ideal as an accessory (e.g. to complete your costume) and will make your transformation into a proud Norse warrior simply perfect.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDetails:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Material: EN45 spring steel blade (carbon steel, not stainless), cast steel guard and pommel, wooden handle with wire wrap\u003cbr\u003e - Total length: approx. 50.5cm.\u003cbr\u003e - Blade length: approx. 35 cm\u003cbr\u003e - Blade thickness: approx. 4 mm \/ 3.5 mm in front of the tip (cutting edge approx. 1 mm)\u003cbr\u003e - Maximum blade width: approx. 4.6 cm.\u003cbr\u003e - Handle length: approx. 15.5 cm (handle section approx. 10.5 cm)\u003cbr\u003e - Center of gravity: approx. 7.5 cm in front of the guard\u003cbr\u003e - Weight: approx. 720 g (approx. 820 g with case)\u003cbr\u003e - Case made of genuine leather (in brown)\u003cbr\u003e The above specifications may vary slightly from copy to copy.\u003cbr\u003e The steel used here is not stainless and may show slight signs of corrosion.
