Hunter’s Seax – Hand-Forged Bushcraft Knife Inspired by Medieval Saxon Blades

The Hunter’s Seax by Everest Forge brings ancient warrior tradition into the hands of modern survivalists and bushcrafters. Inspired by the historical blades carried by Germanic and Saxon tribes during the Migration and Early Medieval periods, this hand-forged knife is a tribute to the tools that once served warriors, hunters, and craftsmen alike.

Forged in Nepal from tough 5160 carbon steel (reclaimed from truck leaf spring), the raw-finished blade is tempered for strength and sharpened for immediate use. Its straight edge and angular tip make it ideal for slicing, carving, skinning, and general fieldwork. This is a blade made for serious function, not just display.

The full tang handle is carved from rosewood, ergonomically shaped to offer a firm, comfortable grip during extended use. It balances heritage styling with modern utility, built for outdoor performance whether you’re in the forest, at camp, or trekking through rugged terrain.

Each Hunter’s Seax includes a handcrafted cottonwood scabbard wrapped in natural leather for safe and secure belt carry. A perfect choice for bushcraft enthusiasts, wilderness adventurers, or fans of Viking, Saxon, or medieval-inspired gear.
