Cold Steel - Viking Sword with Scabbard

Cold Steel - Viking Sword with Scabbard

The historical Viking sword of the 9. and 10. centuries featured a long, broad blade with a wide, central fuller and two sharp edges. Since this blade was designed more for slashing and hacking according to the preferred combat techniques of the time, it had a rather rounded tip, which was still pointed enough to be effective for thrusting. A simple, forward-curving guard was often combined with a handy grip made of leather-covered wood (sometimes bone or even brass) and a massive pommel with five lobes to balance the long blade.

Cold Steel's® interpretation of this sword features a hand-forged, double-edged blade made of carbon steel, which has been hand-polished and perfectly sharpened. The wooden handle is wrapped in leather and framed by a simple yet elegant guard and a pommel with five lobes. The guard and pommel are adorned with traditional knot patterns.

A leather-covered wooden scabbard with a chape and mouthpiece made of polished steel is included.
