Celtic Handforged Knife with Awl

Set of hand-forged knife and awl for historical reenactment.

This type of knives were very common in Europe during the Iron Age. For example, those shown in the attached image were found in West Jutland and are about 2000 years old.

The particularity of these knives is that the spike extends and curves forming the handle in one piece.

It has a beautiful “brut de forge” finish and although it is sharpened, it may require additional sharpening.

We made the perfect set for camp or kitchen. This practical cutlery set includes a leather scabbard for an easy transport attaching it to the belt.

Made of 1095 high carbon steel.

Knife length: 21 cm
