I love the Seax style blade shape. It was carried and used by the Saxons, Angles, Viking and Germanic tribes dating back to the fifth century.
This is my interpretation of what I think one would have looked like through the hands of an American frontier blacksmith.
18" overall with 12" sharp
Iron is from an old truck leaf spring, forged in the charcoal forge and quenched in brine water. Hot cut and hot filed.
Bolster is a scrap copper pipe fitting.
Handle is Maple stump from a dead tree on our place with a rawhide wrap.
Sheath is left side cross-draw, some of my deer rawhide over boot leather with a simple concho made from a snuff lid and a antler button from the same deer.
