Norse Tradesman Viking Seax Knife – Full Tang Fixed Blade, Rosewood Handle & Genuine Leather Sheath – 8.3" Camping, Bushcraft & Hunting Knife

There's a reason the seax was the most carried knife in the Viking Age. It worked. Short enough to wear all day, heavy enough to handle real tasks, and balanced for natural one-handed use. The Norse Tradesman Viking Seax Knife brings that same design philosophy forward with modern materials. The 4.2" D2 tool steel blade is ground to a sharp clip-point edge with a stonewashed finish that wears gracefully in the field. At 3.7mm thick at the spine, this isn't a slicing knife; it's a working knife. It battons. It pries. It processes. The polished edge cuts cleanly, and D2's wear resistance means you'll be re-sharpening far less often than with softer steels. The solid rosewood handle sits comfortably in the hand at 4.3", with the copper guard providing a natural reference point for your grip. At 8.3" overall, the proportions feel right. Long enough to work with, compact enough to carry without thinking about it. The included genuine leather sheath and braided lanyard let you carry it belt-mounted the way it was meant to be worn. Break it in, oil it occasionally, and it'll last decades.

• D2 TOOL STEEL BLADE THAT HOLDS AN EDGE LONGER — The 4.2" blade is ground from D2 tool steel, one of the hardest and most wear-resistant steels available at this price point. The polished cutting edge delivers razor-sharp performance straight out of the box, while the stonewashed finish on the spine and flats resists scratches and gives the blade a battle-worn aesthetic. At 3.7mm spine thickness, it's built for prying, batoning, and hard outdoor work, not just light cutting.
• FULL TANG CONSTRUCTION — ZERO WEAK POINTS — Unlike hollow-handle or partial-tang knives that snap under stress, this seax knife is built full tang from tip to pommel. The steel runs the entire length of the knife, giving you a single solid piece of metal with no joints to fail. Whether you're processing game, splitting kindling, or putting it through hard camp use, this knife is engineered to take abuse.
• SOLID ROSEWOOD HANDLE WITH COPPER GUARD — The 4.3" handle is carved from solid rosewood — dense, grippy, and naturally moisture-resistant. It fills the hand well for extended use without fatigue. The copper guard isn't decorative filler; it's a real functional bolster that protects your hand from blade contact and is built to outlast the knife itself.
• GENUINE LEATHER SHEATH & BRAIDED LANYARD INCLUDED — Every knife ships with a hand-stitched full-grain leather sheath sized to fit snugly. Thread the included braided leather lanyard through your belt loop for a classic Scandinavian-style carry. No flimsy nylon, no plastic snap closures; just leather that breaks in over time and gets better with use.
• THE VIKING SEAX — REBORN FOR MODERN OUTDOORSMEN — The seax was the everyday blade of the Norse world; a utility knife carried by warriors, hunters, and tradesmen alike. Our version keeps the iconic clip-point geometry and forward-heavy balance that made the seax legendary, built with modern steel for real-world use. Equally at home on a camping trip, at the hunting camp, or on your hip for daily carry. Makes an exceptional gift for any outdoorsman.
