That's one sax you don't want to bring to band practice.

Unless you really dislike your bandmates.

Too much seax and violins.

Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

What is the difference between a Seax and a Bowie?

A bowie won't get you slapped with a sexual harrassment suit if you pronounce it wrong at work.

True, but I don't think either would go over well at band practice!  DC, I think it is the profile of the blade, both will do the job.  The Bowie usually has a more pronounced upward sweep to the tip, I think

Difference (usually and there are exceptions, lol!) are the blade shape and finger guard.

Bowie’s have a clip point style blade Which can be formed by grinding, cutting or beveling.  A seax has a sloping point formed by moving the material downward by cutting grinding or pounding...
Bowie’s have a pronounced guard which might even loop around to the tangs end forming a knuckle duster. While a seax has a minimal or no guard.

Clear as mud, right? ;)
