Based on the remains of a sword excavated in Ireland and attributed to the early 10th century, the latest addition to our line of Viking swords has elegantly classic lines, cuts well and handles beautifully. The profile and distal tapers of the blade, combined with the characteristically wide fuller, make for a slightly weight-forward balance, providing the slashing power characteristic of Viking blades. The curved guard and pommel, combined with the spiral leather wrap on the grip, provide for comfortable handling, while the deep brown leather covering of the scabbard and grip wrap make this one of our most attractive Viking swords.
