Wulflund Forged Celtic Knife

While this knife is functional, it is designed primarily as a historical replica. The raw, hand-forged finish and specific blade geometry make it better suited for light tasks or historical reenactment rather than heavy-duty, everyday food preparation.

Because it is made from 54SiCr6 high-carbon steel, this blade is prone to oxidation and rust if left wet. You must hand wash it, dry it immediately after use, and apply a light coat of food-safe oil to the blade before storing it.

No, this knife is not dishwasher safe. The harsh detergents and high heat of a dishwasher will damage the forged finish and cause the high-carbon steel to rust rapidly.

The knife arrives with a functional edge, but it is not sharpened to the precision of a modern chef's knife. You may need to hone or sharpen it yourself depending on the level of precision you require for your specific use.

54SiCr6 is a spring steel known for its toughness and durability, which is why it is often chosen for historical replicas. It holds an edge well and resists chipping, making it a practical choice for a tool meant to mimic the resilience of ancient ironwork.
