I think you might be on the wrong forum? 
Unless the sea axe was an older HI model?

Mine is 14" oal. WIth 9" of that being blade.
The blade is 1-3/4" at the widest point. And it weighs an ounce over 1 pound.
Blade is about 1/4" thick.
That's about it. Pretty nice knife, or I should say, "Me Likey!"

I was going to crack a lame joke about the sea ax being the stainless version of the famed land axe, issued to naval forces, but decided against it.
Actually, I kind of wound up doing it anyway. Ten thousand starving comedians in America and I try to be a funny man. Go figure.
How about a 30" seax?

Approximate translation: big freakin' knife.
Anyway, that's what the translation should be. I'll rank that with the kora as HI products that I really don't need, probably have no use for, and would purchase in a heartbeat.

Scroll down to the bottom of the first page and 3rd from the bottom is a thread titled as above. It may have been pushed down onto page two. Anyway click on that thread and wait for the pictures to load. A seax is shown there. Kapiche?

The "broken-back" seax on the listed thread is spec'd as being 14" overall length, and as weighing 18 ounces.
Say "seax on" fast several times and it end up sounding like Saxon - which is one of the three Germanic tribes, so I've been told. Vikings, Norsemen, Danes, Saxons.

going to the knife show in Little Rock next weekend. I'll be there. I can bring one with me.
Otherwise, do a search on this forum for "seax" & "scramasax" and you'll see the history of the H.I. Seax - a very pointy knife.
