Historical cutlery

This pages shows some of the knives that Nick has made based on medieval examples such as the seax, which came in a range of sizes and was popular with the Anglo-Saxons, Vikings and Carolingians, or the ballock daggers, popular in Western Europe in the 15th century. There are also some medieval style eating knives and prickers as well as some renaissance style forks.
