"Knívleysur maður er lívleysur maður." "A knifeless man is a lifeless man." ~ Faroese Proverb It is often said that a dull knife is a dangerous knife. A sharp knife is a safe knife. Dull=Dangerous. Sharp=Safe. Keeping a knife sharp, especially while out in the field, has been an issue since blades were first carried. Over 1000 years ago, the Vikings actually had a solution to this problem: Whetstone Pendants. A "Whetstone Pendant", so named by archaeologist, is small piece of stone used for sharpening that had a hole so that a leather strap could be tethered. Each stone has been carefully chosen, hand cut, ground and drilled. Custom Color We call the rich colored and conditioned leather cord, Antiqued Mahogany Brown. Unique Knot. The "Napoleon Claw" knot is inspired by Viking/Celtic knot-work and is thought to be an otherwise unknown knot before Bart Colosino brought it to our attention. Includes Pocket Pouch Each whetstone comes with a made-in-the-USA double drawstring muslin bag and each has been hand-stamped with a custom Viking emblem. Stone dimensions: 1.9"L x 1"W x .25"H (slightly smaller than the outside dimensions of a "dog tag")
