The Viking seax is a very large fighting knife which most warriors would have carried. Seax is a short sword that was used primarily during the early part of the Viking era. It's a one handed single edged weapon. Hilts were made of wood, bone, or horn. Every Viking needs a Seax.

The "Viking" Seax?

I have recently been thinking about the seax. My understanding was that the Saxons were THE seax people, so much so that they were named for the Seax according to some things I have read.

However, when you search them most results are "Viking Seax". Not to mention every depiction of Vikings has a seax. Is this because the Norse widely incorporated it into their aresneal? If so, would that have occurred in mainland Europe or England?

Or is it just a bastardization where everything on that time period and general area is called "Viking"?

Good brand for a functional seax knife

Iโ€™ve been looking online for a good quality seax knife. I want it to be functional not display. What brand would you recommend? So far Condor seems like what people like. (I also want a traditional seax not a modern or tactical version)
