Seax Making Kit "Yorvik" / Damascus - 32 cm

Crafting kit for a Viking seax with damascus blade.

This crafting kit for a broken-back seax makes it easy to design a unique Viking seax with genuine damascus steel blade to your taste.

The seax crafting kit includes a Damascus steel broke-back sax blade with 256 layers, building instructions and various materials for the seax handle and leather for making a seax sheath.

The broken-back seax blade is made from genuine damascus steel with 256 layers.
At the one hand AISI 4340 is used, which is a hard tempered steel that has a low carbon content, that also contains molybdenum in addition to nickel and chromium with high toughness. At the other hand 15N20 is used, a nickel-containing steel, which gives beautiful bright areas and good contrasts when used in damascus steel.

Both steels together produce a beautifully flamed damascus steel. Each sax blade is one-of-a-kind and has an individual damascus pattern.
The hardness of the seax blade is 56 to 58 HCR Rockwell.
