Description
This Viking longsword is forged from high carbon steel, giving the blade a balance of strength and resilience essential for battle or reenactment. The blade’s full tang construction extends through the handle, providing a solid, unbreakable core you can feel with every strike. A deep fuller runs along the center of the blade, lightening it without sacrificing strength, and meets a central ridge near the tip to enhance rigidity and cutting performance.
The guard is crafted from carbon steel to shield your hand during combat, while the handle is wrapped tightly in genuine leather over wooden grips, offering a firm hold that won’t slip even in the heat of action. The steel pommel at the end of the handle adds weight for balance and can be used as a striking surface if needed. Each sword is carefully balanced to ensure quick, stable maneuvering and precise control.
The wooden scabbard, wrapped in stitched leather, is custom-fitted to the sword and reinforced with steel fittings at the throat and base for durability. Inside, a soft lining helps absorb moisture and oil, protecting the blade from rust and corrosion. Because this sword is made of high carbon steel, it requires regular oiling and cleaning to keep it in peak condition and prevent oxidation. The blade comes with a blunt edge for safety during reenactments but can be professionally sharpened for cutting practice or combat use.
Due to the nature of the high carbon steel, you might find minor surface rust or imperfections, which can be cleaned away with fine steel wool. Proper maintenance will protect the blade and preserve its performance for years to come.
