Small knife blade after models from the Viking Age.
This small Viking knife blade made of 1085 carbon steel is based on a historical model from the Viking city of Birka - perfect for making an authentic Viking knife with little effort.The Viking knife blade "Birka" is equipped with a so-called tang, which is inserted into the wooden or bone handle for attachment.
Forged knife blades with a tang were often used by the Vikings and were still common during the High Middle Ages. Therefore, this small blade is perfectly suited for an authentic re-enactment of those times.
For optical reasons, the "Birka" blade was left with its black surface, which gives the knife blade a rustic appearance and predestines it for use on historical knives.
