Description
When your longship touches shore and you prepare to claim new lands, a sword like this will surely draw the eyes of friend and foe alike. This blade bears the distinctive wavy patterns of Damascus steel, forged through the folding of 176 layers of 1095 and 15N20 steels, folded some 300 to 350 times to achieve a fine balance of hardness and resilience. The double-edged blade measures 24 inches long and 2 inches wide, hardened to a Rockwell hardness of about 54 to 55,hard enough to hold a keen edge yet flexible enough to endure the rigors of battle. The guard and pommel, forged from solid brass, provide both protection and balance, while the leather-wrapped handle offers a secure grip even in the heat of combat. This sword comes with a hand-crafted adjustable leather back sheath, designed to carry the blade comfortably and securely on your back, much like the warriors of old.
