Cold Steel Chieftain Sax 13.37 Inch Plain Satin Clip Point

Forged from the spirit of ancient battlefields and time-honored craftsmanship, the Cold Steel Chieftain Sax is a masterful blend of history and modern performance. Inspired by the iconic weapons of the Germanic tribes and Norse warriors, this knife channels the raw power and rugged elegance of the seaxes carried by chieftains and seasoned fighters centuries ago. It’s more than just a blade—it’s a tribute to a bold era, carefully crafted for collectors, enthusiasts, and those who appreciate functional historical weaponry.

At the core of the Chieftain Sax is its impressive 13.37-inch clip point blade, crafted from 1055 carbon steel and finished with a sleek satin polish. The clip point design offers a strong, controllable tip—perfect for precise thrusting and slicing—while the plain edge ensures clean, efficient cuts. The 1055 carbon steel provides outstanding durability, toughness, and edge retention, allowing this blade to handle everything from heavy-duty chopping to finer cutting tasks. With a .17-inch thickness, it strikes a fine balance between strength and agility, making it both a formidable weapon and a reliable tool.

The handle is a work of art in itself. Made from Malaysian sal wood, it boasts a smooth, sturdy grip that feels natural and balanced in hand. The hidden tang construction ensures durability while preserving the knife's period-accurate aesthetic. Complementing the rich wood are the brass guard and pommel, adding a touch of historical authenticity and reinforcing the knife's robust design. Every detail, from the curve of the handle to the gleam of the brass, echoes the craftsmanship of ancient blades once wielded by high-ranking warriors.

To complete its timeless appeal, the Chieftain Sax comes with a brown leather scabbard accented by brass fittings. Designed to reflect the style of historical seax sheaths, this scabbard is more than just a carrying case—it’s part of the knife’s heritage. It offers reliable protection for the blade while adding an extra layer of authenticity, allowing you to carry or display the Chieftain Sax in true historical fashion.

Measuring 19 inches overall and weighing 22.9 ounces, this fixed blade knife has a solid, commanding presence.
