King's Knife (Gotland)

Our King's knife has been beautifully crafted using the highest quality materials throughout. The blade has been hand forged using carbon steel to achieve the iconic shape associated with the Gotland finds from the Viking Age. The handle has been expertly hand crafted from bone, with a brass plate. At the end of the handle is a brass cap with a ring, which can be used to attach leather lace. The whole knife has been finished with our signature beeswax and linseed oil blend, which helps protect, aids in grip and brings out the natural colouring. The leather sheath has been hand sewn and finished masterfully with brass accents in keeping with the Gotland finds. The sheath also features a belt loop.

These are an attempt to recreate what likely would have been used in the Viking Age, and are based on the Gotland finds.
