Hand-Forged Medieval Iron Neck Knife with Leather Sheath

?A blade at your throat is an enemy's doing; a small blade against your breast is a camp craftsman's salvation.? Osric, Keeper of the Hearth & Forge

Forged from iron over the anvil using traditional artisan methods, this medieval neck knife embodies the unpolished practicality demanded by Norse and medieval camp life. Every blade bears unique surface marks, forge scale, and hammer work, ensuring no two pieces leave the coals identical. The integral handle is worked into a tight, deliberate twist, providing essential mechanical purchase for skinning, carving, or cord-cutting even when working with wet or grease-slicked fingers.

A durable scabbard fashioned from genuine natural leather protects the iron edge during movement across rough terrain. Suspended from an included leather neck cord, it keeps your belt lines unencumbered by scabbards and pouches while remaining instantly accessible at your chest. Natural grain variations and dye tones in the hide complement the rustic ironwork, giving the piece the seasoned presence of well-kept field gear.

To preserve the iron against field corrosion, wipe the metal clean and thoroughly dry after every use, applying a light coat of mineral or protective oil to stave off rust. If the leather housing becomes soaked on campaign, allow it to dry naturally away from hearth fires or direct heat sources before stowing in a well-ventilated garrison store. Worn beneath a tunic or displayed over quilted canvas, it is an indispensable companion for living history and rugged fieldcraft.
