Description

Viking sword of the 10th century, including scabbard.

This sword is made after an original piece, which comes from the 10th century from England. As early as the 8th century, isolated Vikings haunted the British coasts in search of quick prey. Due to a change in tactics by the Scandinavians, they began to make landfall in England in the 9th century.

This sword is made exclusively by hand. The blade is made of high quality spring steel, which is hardened to about 48 HRC. It is continuous up to the pommel and riveted at the pommel. The pronounced groove of the blade gives the sword great elasticity and at the same time lightness. Both the edge and the tip of the blade are rounded and thus blunt.

The straight guard is made of heat-treated and forgeable cast iron. The handle is wrapped with a sturdy leather strap.

The sword comes with a very nice wooden leather scabbard with wooden bow as belt loop (for max. 5 cm wide belts). The scabbard also has a steel breech plate.
A matching scabbard to the sword is included in the delivery. It is made of wood and covered with leather. It also has a wooden bracket, which allows the sword scabbard to be attached to the belt (suitable for max. 5 cm wide belt).
