Late Viking Era Sword with Scabbard
This true to original replica has replaced the lobe pommel with the brazil-nut shape and the short, thick guard of earlier weapons has thinned and extended into a characteristic medieval cruciform. This sword is exclusively hand-crafted. The blade is hand-riveted to the pommel. The hilt is leather-strapped. More information...

Late Viking Era Sword with Scabbard
By the high Middle Ages, Viking swords had begun to lose some of their more characteristic features like the wide, low-tapering blade and the lobed pommel. Viking swords began to look more like the characteristic longswords of the Middle Ages.
The blade has a distinctive fuller which offers both great flexibility and a lesser weight. The edges of the blade are not sharpened.
The beautiful wooden scabbard is leather-wrapped and features a wooden belt loop (max. belt width 5cm) as well as a richly adorned brass chape.
This is the regular edition of this Viking sword. The same sword is also available as practical blunt version with blunt edges and a rounded tip (product no. 0180001606).
