This hand-forged seax was one of the Vikings' favourite weapons and has a blade shape that is very typical of the British Isles. The model is based on several finds of this type of long single-edged fighting knife. Many variants are found in particular on Gotland. The handle is polished ash. Bolster, pommel and ring in brass. The scabbard is not included!
The blade is hand-forged in carbon steel and hardened in oil, then tempered in the traditional way. The blade is marked with the Nordlys™ "smith's mark" so that you can be sure the seax comes from our smithy.
The shape of the edge and point on this model is adapted to meet the Scandinavian requirements for use in melee combat, historical fencing and reenactment battle. On our combat seaxes the blade is guaranteed by Nordlys for historical fencing and reenactment combat. Nordlys blunted seaxes are approved for historical fencing and melee combat according to Scandinavian practice and regulations.
