Brynjolf Steel (c. 1205 – c. 1270) was the son of the Norwegian Liegeman John Steel (Liegeman). He is a good example of how even in countries without strong feudal inheritance policies vassal-ship could be passed down from father to son. In 1247, he was one of the nine liegemen listed at a re-coronation feast which the king held to establish his legitimacy. During the procession of the coronation Brynjolf was either one of the three liegemen bearing the large tableboard with the king's robes or one of the five liegemen with swords drawn.
