The seax has a long history as both a working tool and a piece of personal craftsmanship, and this version leans into both sides. A long tanto-style blade meets a deeply carved rosewood handle, giving you a knife that works at camp and holds its own on display.

The blade is hand forged in a long, tanto-style profile with an etched ricasso near the guard, giving the knife a striking look right where the eye lands first. At 8 inches, the blade has enough length and presence for camp cutting tasks as well as display.

A brass bolster separates the blade from the handle, adding both a finished look and a bit of extra weight for balance. The rosewood handle itself is deep-carved with detailed patternwork, a labor-intensive touch that sets it apart from a plain wood grip.

A hand-tooled leather belt sheath is included, matching the level of detail on the handle. If you want a shorter, more everyday-carry take on a carved fixed blade, our Karambit Claw Knife is worth a look.

How do I care for the carved handle?

Keep it dry and apply a light wood oil occasionally to keep the rosewood from drying out and to preserve the carved detail.
