Handmade Viking Knife with Polished High Carbon Steel Dagger Blade, Green Handle, Celtic Collar & Green Sheath with Triquetra Emblem
This handmade viking knife is an eye-catching Norse collector knife that blends Norse and Celtic design in a bold, forest-green look. The blade is forged from high carbon steel and polished to a bright, mirror-like shine. It has a dagger-style shape, with a pointed tip, a raised center ridge, and a gently curved outline that flares near the guard, where a decorative cutout adds a distinctive touch. Carbon steel is a classic knife steel that holds a sharp edge well and is easy to sharpen.
The handle is finished in a deep green, with a sweeping, upturned guard that curves up from the base of the blade and gives the knife a graceful, almost horn-like profile. A decorative silver-tone collar with a swirling Celtic-style pattern sits in the middle of the grip, and the handle ends in a polished steel pommel that matches the blade. The mix of bright steel and rich green makes this knife look different from any ordinary fixed blade.
The knife comes with a matching green sheath, stitched along the edges with fine contrast thread and fitted with two rivets and two small round cutouts at the top. In the center of the sheath, a silver-tone medallion shows a Celtic triquetra, a trinity knot made from three interlaced arcs. The sheath protects the blade and presents the knife as a full set, making it a fine gift for lovers of Viking, Norse, and Celtic design, and for collectors who like a bold color.

Viking Knife Design Inspired by Norse and Celtic Art
The triquetra is a triangular design built from three interlaced arcs, and it is one of the best-known knots in early medieval art. It is common in Insular art, the art of early medieval Britain and Ireland, where interlaced versions appear from about the 7th century, including in the Book of Kells, on metalwork, and on carved high crosses. The symbol is also found in the Norse world, for example on a Norwegian penny struck under King Harald Hardrada (reigned 1047 to 1066) and on the Funbo Runestone in Sweden. Its link to the Christian Trinity mostly comes from the Celtic Revival of the 19th century, and other meanings are modern, so what early medieval artists meant by it is not known. Viking Age art, generally dated from about 790 to 1100 AD, is also known for its interlaced, looping designs, and that is why the Celtic-style collar and the triquetra on the sheath give this knife a Viking style look. This knife is inspired by those designs and is made as a decorative and collector piece.
Care Instructions for Carbon Steel
Carbon steel is tough and takes a keen edge, but it can rust if it stays wet. Wipe the blade dry after handling, apply a light coat of oil, keep the handle and sheath away from water and extreme heat, and store the knife in its sheath in a dry place.
