Grimfrost Seax - Viking Woodsman Knife - Review

I was out in the woods reviewing the Grimfrost Viking Seax, a great tool for the Viking reenactor, bushcrafter and woodsman. Why go out in the woods in Viking clothes? Because I strongly believe that anyone interested in learning about the Viking Age and the Viking way of life, needs to practice the basic skills that the Norsemen and -women had to master to survive and thrive.

The knife is made from 1045 carbon steel, it is full tang and has ash handle scales. Total length: 16" (40 cm). Length of the blade: 10.5" (27 cm).

Great to see you in your viking clothes again. It's been too long

[SteveWFitch]

I love your viking clothing. I'd be tempted to wear this every time I went into the woods! The seax is my favorite. A beautiful blade. Thanks for sharing, Bjorn!

[Bob_Adkins]

I love the Seax blade so much I made several, and even bought a pocket knife with a Seax style blade. It's the most versatile and utilitarian blade shape of all. Not great for skinning, but superior for all other uses.

[huntfishfightfire]

I am making a broken back Seax now. I love this design.

[alteredcarbon]

This is a beautiful knife indeed. Thank you for this Bjorn 🔥 🐦‍⬛

[mysticforge]

Love seeing videos with you in Viking garb. Looks like a nice knife too.

[dhession]

Another wonderful video highlighting a wonderful knife design from antiquity. This design is still not only useful today but also one to be used and respected. Thank you for posting this, Bjorn. It's a beautiful blade.

Great video my friend, that knife looks like an absolute beast 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼
I know I always say it but thank you for taking us on your adventures.

[raymondroberts]

Awesome camp knife! I feel a definite connection to the ancestors when I use any hand tools or knifes, but to have one so close to what they had back then must make it very much more special. Thank you for the video, I had to watch it a couple of times - the first time I kept focusing on the some of the details of your Viking clothes, and was missing what you were saying about the knife, lol

[amXiXlike]

Hade en sådan kniv. Bästa kniven jag har haft. Dok så behövde jag sälja den.

[kpaulsen]

I received my Grimfrost seax a few weeks ago and really like it. It does need to be kept well oiled lest it rust. No two seem to be alike as mine is a thinner blade with the broken part a much lower angle, endiang in a very sharp point. I like the stamped in runes too.

[robertbenson]

I love your videos brother. You have inspired me. I now want to become a California Viking. Thank you.

Another Seax I'd recommend is the one available from Tod Cutler, I havent used it for bushcraft yet, but its very good for the price.

[dobypilgrim]

I only have one full tang Seax, about that same size. It's very useful. I love that style sheath as well. I made my own. I had Norwegian ancestors as well. Whether they were actually Vikings or not, I have no way of knowing. But they did live in the Danelaw, so there is a good chance, lol.

[Mr.Goldtop]

I LOVE this knife! I've watched this video at least 5 times (for now)! I wish I had one!

[frederikrijpma]

Good content in the videos lately. Realy nice viking outfit with the wicker basket backpack. :)

[swatdoc]

At the base of the blade on my machete, I sharpened it to a Scandi grind for fine work. The rest of the blade is a convex grind for chopping and heavier work. I also squared off the back of the blade for sparking a ferocerium rod. Nice blade!

[bruderk]

Now that beast of a knive shows some rough beauty.

[nathanieltheanimal]

I love the look of the seax blade. Thumbs up great video's.

[brandonironhead]

Well I was going to buy that same knife from grimfrost and after watching your video I will be buying it for sure thanks for the video
