The Saxons long seax, or in the Germanic spelling, lang sax was the omen present weapon of the Saxon warrior. Many historians believe that even the name Saxon was derived from it. It was an important part of the rights of manhood and was always carried throughout the rest of life and all ways carried no matter what other weapons were present. It was as important in war as it was in the hunt where it was often used for the killing stork for large game.
