|
|
|
This listing is marked SOLD and is no longer available
First, the obligatory statement - I am a hobbyist knifemaker, NOT a professional!
Finally putting up for sale a few of the completed projects that accumulated in my drawer over the last several years...
I would prefer to sell these two knives together as a pair, if possible.
They do look like they belong together as a matching pair:
- same blade shape, classic small broken back Ango-Saxon seax (with some metal inlays: silver + copper + brass + solder alloy on fixed blade, twisted copper/silver wire on folder);
- same handle material (whitetail deer stag horn with crown);
- same cross design engraved in crown;
- similar inscriptions in Anglo-Saxon runes. "ALEX WORTE" (Alex made) on fixed blade inlayed in blade, "A I WORTE" (my initials and "made" on folder engraved in handle.
See more pictures and details (dimensions, discussion of how these knives were designed and made) where I posted them originally.
Fixed (includes some work in progress posts):

Folder:

Since I posted the folder originally, I improved it by installing thin bronze washers (around the blade and outside as well). Not much of an external difference so I am not retaking all pictures, but posting one here (the last attachment) to show how it looks now.
Asking prices (including delivery in continental US):
$150 for the pair
or
$95 folding seax only
$75 fixed blade seax only
Preferred payment method is by PayPal.
As I said above, I would prefer to sell them as a pair. So will wait about a week for an offer on a pair.
If you want one of them only, please PM me anyway. If I don't get an offer for a pair in a week, will sell to whoever wanted single knives first.
If you are interested, feel free to ask any questions.
Alex.
