Trio of Broken Back Seaxes
Just completed: 3 broken back seaxes. These Anglo-Saxon knives feature a hand-forged high carbon steel blade (5160) with a decorative grove near the spine. The hilt has a distinctly Scandinavian flare with a nickle-silver ferrule and end cap. The peen and end cap is accented with domed steel pins. The grip is made from a hardwood core and is covered in leather. These seaxes come with a simple leather sheath and they are all sharp.
Stats:
Top seax -- Dark brown, blade length 12.75" (32.34 cm), overall length 17.75 (45.09 cm) SOLD
Center seax -- Red, blade length 12.3125" (31.27 cm), overall length 17.75" (45.09 cm)
Bottom seax -- Mahogany, blade length 12.875" (32.7 cm), overall length 18.063 (45.88 cm) SOLD
Price: $450 (sheath included) plus $25 domestic shipping. International shipping via UPS and will be determined at time of sale. If you are interested, contact me at ericmycue@verizon.net or PM.

They are 0.25" (6 mm) at the base and they taper from there. They all have non-linear distal taper, and because of the forging, they all have slight variations in taper. They are sturdy knives.
