'''New Ruling from 1st Jan 2016'''<br>
*For events after 900AD blunt combat hadseax (Scramasax) blade lengths must now be between 18cm and 25cm (7-10”). This replaces the original ruling as stated in the Master-at-Arms Regulations version 3.0 (2005) stating 7-14”.<br>*The evidence from Regia’s core period is that sharp blade lengths vary from between 7-11”. Blunting the point for combat reduces the length by 1”.*Longer blades of up to 14” (sharp) or 13” (blunt) of the appropriate blade form are allowed for events before 900AD.<br>*Seaxs from the Viking Age never have metal fittings unlike those from the earlier pagan Anglo-Saxon period. <br>*Seax handles must not be riveted on.<br>
