Collection: Viking Seax

Extending the Drakka Knife collection, the Viking seax features a broken-back seax that dates back to Germanic tribes during the migration period, establishing a direct link to the Vikings in England and Ireland. The Viking seax provided by Drakka is a lethal combat weapon due to its high adaptability and light weight, allowing for a valiant fight in times of war. The Vikings believed that warriors who died in battle went to Valhalla, a place from Norse mythology. This helped them fight and conquer with great skill.

The Viking seax is a very large combat knife that was carried by the majority of warriors. We stock a vast assortment of different styles of military and utility knives. The sheath of a Viking-era utility seax is beautifully decorated. The seax has a 9" overall length and a 4" unhoned high-carbon steel blade. Brass embellishes the sheath of leather.

The Drakka Viking Seax is an excellent knife for skinning, fishing, filleting, carving, wild camping, in the kitchen, and in the garden. It includes a high-quality leather sheath that can be worn horizontally or vertically on a belt or lanyard.
Viking seax knife entirely handcrafted with perfect balance and finishing.

These knives are made of high-carbon steel, so they require special care to prevent rust and corrosion. After each use, we recommend cleaning and drying the blades. In addition, we recommend applying a thin layer of vegetable oil, mineral oil, or other suitable lubricants after each use to prevent rust. Dishwasher use is NOT advised.
