Feast knife by Grimmond



Seax, plain.

1095 high carbon steel *not* stainless. 1/8" thick, 1" wide at widest
point, roughly 9" long overall.

Blade is a period pattern, and I have documentation on the blade shape
somewhere, will probably have to dig out the book again. Handle is
full tang, which is a departure from period practice of a skinny tang
to conserve material. Hilt is two slabs of oak, finished with linseed
oil, and secured with two copper rivets.
