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 spearhead regularly, for example with Ballistol, a universal oil ideal for preserving steel products.



Please note that bones and leather are natural products and variations in colour and/or grain are completely normal. Since the knife is entirely handmade, the decorations may vary slightly from one piece to the next. Therefore, each handle or sheath of this Viking sax is unique and the images above are for illustrative purposes only.
