Hey, Pen: Email sent with pix. 8 of them.
There are a few differences in the desingn: The handle's are all chiruwa style. don't know if that was the spec.
Scabbards will hold the seax securely if you jam it in there good. Scabbards a leather-lined leather, with a snap at the throat of the sheath. Snap isn't very period, but does the job.
The buttcap is steel. The bolsters and chapes are silver. Handles are a nice size, and will fit the biggest of hands nicely.
The fullers are tiny, so the runes my need to come a bit further down, not much tho. All were made by Sher (S.B., and rising sun mark), and have a convex edge, almost flat ground. The blade is about 1/4 inch thick at the bolster, and there is a bit of a distal taper to the blade. the point is well reinforced with steel, and yet the very point of each is needle sharp. All look quite similar, very consistent work from Sher. Total length is between 14" and 14.75". Point of balance is kinda close to the bolster, if not right under it. I attribute this to the chiruwa handle style, which adds a few ounces of weight to the handle. This gives the seax a "neutral" balance feel, which makes the knife feel light and agile. Might hafta hold your hand further back on the handle for chopping, though.
More when Pen can post pix.
