Ontario Knife Co. Bushcraft Seax
New Products - July/August 2023
Based on the historic Anglo-Saxon seax (seax is the Old English word for knife) that was popular from the 7th to 12th century, this modern interpretation embodies over 500 years of functional seax design using cutting-edge materials and technology. Crafted with attention to detail, the Bushcraft Seax boasts a narrow point that’s optimized for intricate cutting tasks, with the deep clip strategically placed just 1/4 inch above the blade edge line to enhance cutting force, much like that of a sheepsfoot blade.
The knife’s hilt features the trusted and time-tested ergonomic design of the Bushcraft Field Knife hilt while the handle scales are fashioned from durable laminated hardwood for a reliable grip in any outdoor condition. With an overall length of 9.63 inches, the fixed-blade knife boasts a 420-stainless-steel blade with satin finish that measures 4.43 inches in length.
The Bushcraft Seax has been crafted to tackle a wide range of tasks typical of bushcrafting, including carving, chopping, and performing everyday chores in the woods. The Bushcraft Seax comes with a black, MOLLE-Compatible Nylon sheath that can be easily attached to the user, pack, or gear. SRP: $77.97. (ontarioknife.com)
