The typical Viking sword
of the 9th and 10th
centuries featured a
long wide blade with a
broad central fuller and
two keen edges. The
preferred stroke was a
hard slash or chopping
blow, so the point was
fairly rounded but was
just acute enough to be
useful for thrusting. A
simple guard with
forward curving
quillions was often
utilized and combined
with an equally
utilitarian wooden
handle that was covered
with leather, bone, or
even cast in brass.
What really made the
Viking Sword so
distinctively
recognizable from its
contemporaries was its
heavy 5 lobed pommel
used to balance the long
blade.
Our sword has features
in common with its
historical counterpart.
It has a double edged
blade, hand forged out
of high carbon steel and
then polished to a
brilliant lustre. The
wooden handle is covered
in leather and is
supported by a simple,
elegant guard at one end
and an equally handsome
5 lobed pommel at the
other. Both guard and
pommel feature
traditional Celtic knot
embellishments.
To house the keen double
edge blade each of our
swords is supplied with
a wood scabbard covered
in black leather and
reinforced with a highly
polished steel chape and
throat.
Features a 30.25 in. 1050 high carbon steel blade and a 6.63 in. leather wrapped handle. Comes complete with a leather/wood scabbard with steel fittings.
