that's a very cool knife you've made. I had a look through your gallery and there were a few quite similar to this style with the twisted handle. What would you call this type of knife? Would it be a seax or simply a viking knife or something else?

Thanks! 
No it is definitely not a seax. If I am not mistaking these type of knives were used mainly in the kitchen.Β
Would you like to have one?

Yes, they are. It is pretty much the simplest way to make a knife. It doesn't need any handle material or glue.
Here's an original from Danemark:

I have a question about the handle... I love the look of the handle itself, but would it be made more flexible because of the lack of a full hilt? I'm just wondering if it would bend at all. Β Not that I'm criticizing it, or that I know what I'm talking about, just a curiosity

Yes, you are right. If you force the handle, than it bends a bit, but is basically an arc, so it will return to its original form.

Ah I see! Β What a great design that will allow it to change to its original form. Β Makes it more 'versatile' I guess you could say. Β Thanks for answering the question!

I love the handcrafted look. It looks like a really cool and affordable collectible item. If I had lots of extra cash around I'd consider buying one

Thank you. Affordable is quite relative. I ask 75 euro for one similar, with all fees included:

Now, for some people that is a lot and it remains an unobtainable dream, and others think that it is almost for free and commission 3-4 pieces, one for each family member

Yes, it is relative

I like the inner loop detail, I have not seen that before.

It's a little innovation on the classic look

I like it! Before the industrial age of mass production, every blade was custom. Each smith would put their own embellishments on the finished project.Β

Yeah, those were the times ...

No it's not, but I never said it is

So how hard was it to get that inner cruel?Β

It was a pain in the ass

I would like to see it in a few other angles, etc, preferably on like skype or something in real time? I'm very interested in buying it!
