Hanwei makes a re-enactment seax, it's not all that great looking though IMO. I believe you could probably check most websites for Viking re-enactment for recommendations.

I am partial to this one by Gen 2 although I have no idea how authentic it is.

I hope that this helps

I'm probably resurecting the dead here, but... Himalayan imports makes truly hand made SEAX knives, and they can be had for sub $150. All hand forged out of spring steel over a fire and shaped with hand hammering on an anvil, hand tempered, and outstanding quality and toughness. They are more known for thier Khukuris as thier Forte', but their SEAX knife is outstanding. Hope that helps someone

If you're after a VIKING sax, look for a sax without the broken back. It was hardly used by vikings, but common on the British Isles. There aren't many historically correct viking saxes out there.

This one is closest to what what was common in Scandinavia.
