Description
Description
The Seax pronounced sacks from the Old English and Old Norse word simply meaning knife was the most universally carried blade of the Viking Age, worn by every Norse man, woman, and warrior from the 5th to the 11th century without exception. So culturally significant was this single-edged blade that entire Germanic tribes identified themselves by it, with the very name Saxon derived directly from the Seax they carried as their most essential daily tool and identity symbol.
Unlike the double-edged Viking sword, the Seax featured a distinctive single-edged blade with a thick spine, often 5mm to 8mm near the handle that allowed the user to press their thumb or palm on the spine for controlled carving and precision work. The iconic Broken Back Seax design, featuring a straight cutting edge with an abruptly angled back that drops sharply toward the point, was one of the most versatile and recognizable blade designs of the Viking Age

FAQs
1. What is a Viking Long Seax Knife?
A Viking Long Seax, historically known as a Langseax, is a single-edged long blade of the Norse and Germanic world, featuring blades of 50 centimeters or longer with a thick spine, single cutting edge, and distinctive clip point or broken back tip geometry. Long Seaxes were historically found in high-status Viking graves and are considered the most prestigious class of Norse seax blades.

The JW SteelCrafts Damascus Steel Viking Long Seax has an overall length of 16 to 18 inches, placing it firmly in the historically accurate Langseax category and delivering the commanding presence and powerful performance of an authentic Viking long blade.
3. What makes the Seax different from a regular knife or sword?
The Seax is distinguished by its single-edged blade, thick spine, and distinctive clip point or broken back tip geometry, unlike the double-edged Viking sword. The thick spine allowed Norse warriors to press their thumb or palm against it for controlled precision work, while the single sharp edge delivered powerful draw cuts for chopping, skinning, and demanding field tasks.
4. What is the Damascus clip and pommel on this Viking Seax?
The Damascus clip refers to the angled back section of the blade near the tip, forged from the same hand-layered Damascus steel as the blade, while the Damascus pommel is the end cap of the handle, also crafted from matching Damascus steel. Together they create a fully coordinated Damascus aesthetic that gives this Long Seax exceptional visual cohesion and historical character.
