Knifemaking - Viking Age Seax
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ต.ค. 2024
- A free interpretation of a viking age seax. Before someone comments - a seax does not have to ha a broken back. Those with a broken spine are more frequently found on the British Isles. Examples from continental Europe usually have a leaf shaped blade with a point in the center or close to it (like on this one)

After watching dozens of knife making videos, this one has REALLY got my interested in working leather. Thank you for uploading
What a fantastic video! I've been down the TH-cam blacksmith rabbit hole but this is one of the better videos i've seen.
A fine example of old world craftsmanship. I truly enjoyed your video.
A grinder is not old world craftmanship
Excellent knife build and I love all the detail on the leather sheath!!
Very nice work! A beautiful result and a pleasure to view. I love all of the extra embellishments you added to this project.
A good interpretation of an old theme. Well photographed. Keep going.
That's a very tasteful and skillful blade you made there. Also I'm glad you made it look traditional instead of all modern looking.
great video. Enough detail to be able to learn from. Many thanks!
Excellent job my friend. Your attention to detail, fit and finish are outstanding!!! A true craftsman
True masterpiece, thanks for sharing. Top notch!
Awesome. You’re very skilled. What a piece of art!
Bjorn Andreas Bull-Hansen Thank you very much Bjorn! Appreciate it!
TRCustomKnives wow that's nice craft the viking blacksmith gods be smiling on you 👌💕🐺
@@randomfox9970 actually I believe they were dwarves I'm not sure though
Well done. A work of art.
Nice to see a knife maker who can also make a sheath 😉
Proper job 👍
Very nice leather work I enjoyed watching that
Excellent craftsmanship! Your editing work was top notch as well.
Superb workmanship and that is one beautiful knife.
If utube have more than 1 like button, I would click all of them for it. Really like this knife
congratulations for making such a good knife ... simply fascinating
Julian Carrera Thanks a lot!
Beautiful!! Great Work! Both video and knife. :)
Very interesting. You should raise your anvil up a bit to avoid back pains in the futere. Keep up the good work
Stuart Smith Ahhhh whatever! He's young, I'm sure he'll never have back problems.......
Beautiful knife and video, sir!
beautiful seax and sheath
Such great attention to detail! that was fantastic to watch, you have great skills ;)
Wow. Talk about a beautiful work of art! Great job, sir!
Incredible! What stunning piece! What solutions did you use for the leather prep and treatment? I'm trying to learn how to work with leather and make my own sheaths. Thank you!
lovely piece of work and fantastic skill!
Finally I found an actual smith, who doesn't just cuts pre-made steel and sharpens it!
The very beautiful work, very good and very nice, good job my friend....
You, my dude, are such an incredible inspiration for me! Keep me coming mate.
Absolutely amazing work! Both on the sheath and the knife!
LE-Handmade knives Thank you so much!
one word to say beautiful
great job bro
Its a pretty good knife, the brass parts of the sheath are pretty rough
Spectacular job.
One question: 5:12 - that black thing that you melted down into the zig-zag ornament - what is that? Black plastic rod? It have to be something that will stay in place after it concentrate back again, and something that is resistant for all external conditions and mechanical stimuli... No idea what may it be.
Stunning work
Nice Tanto! I jest... to make a point about how it is interesting that a perfected functional blade form(and perfected handle form)... is universal. Very nice job! You made a beautiful blade that is better than anything that can be mass produced.
Ughhhhhh such high quality why don't you have 1 million subs yet ;-;
Gorgeous! Great work!
AWSOME WORK !!!!!!
Wow.. Very nice... congratulations man
Un capolavoro bellissimo i miei complimenti. Bravo.
... it's gorgeous !!!!
Very impressive artwork. Is there a reason you trimmed & burnished the edge before adding the top & bottom brass plate wrap? Couldn't you have sanded it all flush before adding the loops & rings? It's awesome either way but I'm curious since I might build something similar one day. Thanks.
That is gorgeous, i LOVE how you did the handle and sheath! If I may ask, what was that you dripped into the handle?
Great work!!
Not to discredit your work but it's a puuko you've made not a lang seax I live in Denmark and I have never seen a lang seax like that but it is still a beatifull piece of craftsmanship!.
I bet you haven't seen puukkos in Denmark either. :) Puukko is a finnish knife. In Scandinavia it's called a knifr or sax. A knifr is carried vertical on the belt and has a blade around 7-10 cm, a sax is a big knife or dagger carried vertical. This is definetly a traditional scandisax.
@Ju Ju Of course he isn't right. The anglosaxian seax and the norse sax predates the puukko by centuries. Broken back (bowie style) seaxes, found almost exclusively in UK and Ireland, are rare. The norse sax has either a leaf tip blade or a straight back. The shape of this blade is similar to norwegian viking langsaxes from the 7-8th century.
That’s not a knife
It’s a piece of art!
Cool handle! Are you willing to share it's dimensions?
Nice work
Sweet brother. Awesome.
have you tried flat sail needles for your stitching
great work do appreciate the upload
Question, what is the oil that I always see people quenching it in
Sehr coole Arbeit echt Geil gemacht Bravo mehr bitte!!!🙂🤘
I want to by one exactly this one, it is a very special knive.
The leather work on this is great
Well done. Perfect thanks lot i like your knife. 👍❤🇲🇦
Whoa! Very impressive
Pěkná práce, jakou ocel jsi použil?
Hey man, are you still making knives? Didn't see a video in ages. Very good job btw.
Awesome work man! I love it 👍😊
Not only Wood thanks!
What you made was so manly, the pink hair clip in 7:24 is thereby made manly.
It might even be lucky!
Good Job Bro 👍
AWESOME!
AMAZING!! IM SPEECHLESS
I HATE HAND SANDING!!,,BUT IT MEANS U R VERY CLOSE TO FINISHING. GOOD WORK
Nice. Very nice.
Very nice
Very good
The Anglosaxon saex had the broken back. wich wa also found in allemannic regions. most of the continental germanic tribes east of the Rhine hat pointy tips like the one u did. The once in sweden and denmark and the baltic coast of germany were mostly with a straight back and only one sharp side
Seu trabalho é muito bem executado. Parabéns!
Would this have been a general purpose knife back in it's day? Great video thanks for sharing
Yeah pretty much. (for hunting or just every day tasks, although it could be used as a sidearm) Thanks!
Not a seax though they have the taper on the spine of the knife but a very good quality knife in all.
It looks authentic, good job.
Heat the ricasso and then the blade before heat treat ^^ great work
You’re a true man
Perfect!
Respect from Greece my friend. Amazing job. I wish you health and peace to your life to continue create buatiful knives
I know it doesn,t have to have a broken back, but it seems to me that you have sharpened the wrong edge.
Why did he put water on the anvil when he was hammering the blade?
When the hot Blade comes in contact with the water - while forging-, it evaporates. It is like a little "explosion" and blows the tinder off the surface of the blade . Tinder is very hard, and you use this technik to smoothen and clean the surface of the workpiece for the further operational steps.
what is that stuffed you sprayed on at 3:22-ish?
P.S. you are talented af by the way, like holy shiz.
It's WD40/ Thanks!
Live the craftsmanship going in to this piece..and good camera work ...You just got your self a subscriber
