Almost all warriors, from the highest to the lowest carried a single edged knife known as a '''''scramseax''''' (the spelling varies, with scramseaxe or scramaseaxe, with an 'e' or an extra 'a' or not is rather arbitrary as were the Saxons were with their spelling). Indeed, it seems that wearing a knife may have actually been a symbol of freemanship.
