Viking Saxophone Made Of Carbon Steel With Wooden/Bone Handle

Enjoy Viking Saxophone Made Of Carbon Steel With Wooden/Bone Handle

Viking saxophone with carbon steel blade and wooden/bone handle



This Viking Age knife with a sharp carbon steel blade is based on a Baltic war knife or saxophonist's knife from the 11th century, which was found in a burial mound in Priekuli-Gugeri (Latvia). The wooden handle ends on both sides with bone and brass rings. It has an oval cross-section and therefore lies firmly in the hand. The brass handle cap is equipped with a practical lanyard hole (leather strap is included).



The beautiful leather sheath is decorated with elegant brass fittings. Thanks to three leather loops attached to brass rings, the knife can be worn horizontally on the belt in typical Viking style. The stylised animal heads decorating the carrying straps are based on finds from Björkö/Birka (Sweden).



This skramasax is designed as a collector's item or decorative object.

The above specifications may vary slightly from copy to copy.



The steel used here is not stainless and may show slight signs of corrosion. We recommend taking care of the blade regularly, for example with Ballistol, a universal oil ideal for preserving steel products.



Since bone and wood are natural products, variations in colour and/or grain are quite normal. Therefore, no two handles of this Viking sax are the same and the images above are for illustrative purposes only.
