A simple seax in san mai... sides are wrought iron, core is 1084, handle is rock maple, sheath fittings are bronze. 6 1/2 inch blade, 12 3/4 inch overall length. Very light and fast in the hand.....
The wrought iron is particularly gnarly. I decided on this one to etch my mark on the spine instead of the sides of the blade, makes it a bit less conspicuous. I also decided to not darken the wood this time. I like how this one turned out.
I'm asking $205 for this one, price includes shipping within the USA.

I have one question: Why is it called 'laminate seax'?

If I may...
The blade is of laminated steel, wrought iron on the sides with a core steel of 1084.
Very nice!
