Viking Sword: Whether sacking churches along the coast of Ireland, demanding Danegeld from English kings, solving arguments in a Holmgang (ritual form of dueling), or performing a wedding the Vikings put their swords to great use. Inspired by the great Scandinavian raiders, our Viking sword is a no nonsense 27-inch broad bladed cutting tool. The heavy Brazil nut styled pommel and straight cross guard balance out the flat blade allowing one to utilize a shield in the off hand. Slightly forward heavy for tremendous cleaving potential, this sword was built for hewing through flesh and bone alike. (Leather Scabbard Included)
