This ritual athame first appears as a black Celtic Cross whose long expanse is decorated with intricate patterns of Celtic knot work. At closer inspection however, you realize that the sides of the cross pivot, allowing the blade of the athame to extend from the tip of the cross. The result is an elegant blend of imagery and function, with the athame helping to direct energies and the symbolic imagery of the cross representing the four elements united with the energies that surround us. The cross shaped handle measures approximately 4 1/2" in length, while the single edged, stainless steel blade flips out to a length of 3".
