18-Inch Hand-Forged Langseax with Floral Etching – Historical Viking Sword Inspired by Norse and Saxon Traditions
Step into the saga of the early medieval north with this 18-inch Langseax—a historically inspired blade once wielded by Saxons, Norsemen, and Germanic tribes. The Langseax (or long seax) was not just a tool but a warrior’s sidearm, commonly carried across Scandinavia, Britain, and continental Europe from the Migration Period through the Viking Age. Longer than the common utility seax, the Langseax served as a symbol of status and combat readiness.
This reproduction is hand-forged in Nepal by traditional blacksmiths using 5160 high carbon steel, repurposed from truck leaf springs—mirroring the resourcefulness of ancient smiths. It features an 18-inch single-edged blade etched with a traditional floral motif, full-tang construction for durability, and a 6-inch rosewood handle for a comfortable, commanding grip. The sword is housed in a cottonwood scabbard wrapped in yak leather, blending rugged authenticity with historical charm.
Whether you're a collector of historical arms, a reenactor, or a devotee of Viking-era craftsmanship, this Langseax is a tribute to the age of warriors.
