Description
Hi,Continuing my medieval hammering fray, I ended up with another broken back seax. This is a bit different from the rough seax, I presented a few days ago in the manner that it is a little bit more fancy.
Vikings just loved fancy, shiny, glittering stuff, the remaining hidden gold and silver hoards proves this and even the men wore elaborately ornamented accessories and weapons. We can only imagine how wondrous and fertile their art was before Christianity tamed and forced its uniform romanesque culture upon them.
So back to the seax!
It is a 33 cm long anglo-saxon type seax, with a 17 cm long, 4 cm wide and 6 mm thick damascus blade, which has 120 layers of L6 and W1.2516 tool steels.
The handle is made of antler and oak, all packaged in a thick leather sheath, both decorated with Jellinge style gripping beasts, which were popular in the 10th century.
Hope you guys like it
It is 250 usd, with all fees included!

This one was posted quite some time ago, so I am surprised that it sprung into consideration now. Anyway I am very happy that it did!

This is simply gorgeus! Repeating the dragon design on the handle and leather is a great idea and the steel itself looks simply wonderful

Thanks a lot!
I hoped that it would look good, and I am glad that you think it is.
That blade is made of the two best contrasting steel that I use
