Scramasax, Large Viking Scramasax by Kingdom of Arms

Handmade Scramasax, A Large Viking Scramasax, hand forged blade.

This is the large fighting style of the Nordic seax. Carried hanging in the front or at the back of the belt but always within easy reach the knife was effective in a heavy cut or long devastating draw cut. The blade points varied greatly on the amount of drop off, this example being the broke back type. The alternating steel, brass and wood grip is peened to the very sharp flat ground 5160 tough carbon steel blade. Brown leather with brass ascents and belt loops is Kevlar lined and swallows the front of the grip for secure carry.
