Anyone Want to Talk Traditional Fixed Blades?

[2Dead]

Thanks Gary

That's a nice one too. 3 fingers and then the lanyard? Yep, that'll work Another nice example of California Buckeye Burl. That's one wood I have never had a knife in. I need to add that to my custom wishlist.

Amazing Stag! Blackjack 1-7 Hunter? Is it new or just a new sheath?

You got it, just a new sheath.

Love it...great idea with the stone. I am all for traditional sharpening but if I can get a diamond thingy on my traditional knife and sheath it doesn't hurt

:thumbup: Thank you!!! Was glad he had the option for the 4" stone...had gone with 3" pouches in the past but a 4 incher works much better for me with a 6"+ blade.

Worked the range as an RSO today. Took some knives to oil, sharpen, etc. Buddy was admiring the ergonomics of the Grohmann #2 Bird and Trout I picked up at a gun show a few months ago. I still hadn't carried it or sharpened it. With his assurance that he'd actually use bit, it went home with him today. Great knife, but it just wasn't right to let it languish continuously put away and unused.

Ferahgo, I've never seen a knife like that one before - tell us more about it. It looks very heavy duty. Thanks, OH

The seax, which ranged from a short knife to a sword, was carried by many Germanic peoples. They were of various shapes, but that clip point straight edge pattern you asked about was a common one. Saxes were carried during the post-Roman Völkerwanderung, and into the early feudal era.

Seaxes ranged from personal task knives, to choppers for firewood and shelter, to weapons, with no clear division.

The Saxons were named for the saxes they carried.

That about covers it! I can't think of anything to add.

The East Saxon kings claimed descent from the god Seaxnet (continental Seaxnot, who has been identified with Tir/Tiw/Tiwaz, whose name is cognate with Zeus and deus). Surviving West Saxon geneology goes back to Woden instead, but possibly because Wessex was trying to go along with the Anglians.
