Viking sax, Gotland. Blunted edge
This hand forged Viking sax is made for martial arts and historical fencing. The model is based on several finds from Scandinavia and has a typical blade shape and scabbard for the region and time. The handle is made from polished Ash wood with details and end ring hand fitted in brass.
On the fighting model the shape of edge and tip has been adapted to the Scandinavian standards for reenactment fighting. The blade is hand forged, hardened with oil and then tempered to become both flexible and strong. This model comes with a Nordlys warranty for use in reenactment fighting. The blade is also marked with our Nordlys™ “forgers mark” so that you can be sure that it is an original from our forge. Our Nordlys™ fighting saxes are approved for all types of Viking reenactment fighting according to Scandinavian practises and standards.
