12th-Century Sword
12th-Century Sword Ref: IW-IP003A
(Original: c. 1100 - 1250 Northern Europe, Museum and Art Gallery, Glasgow.)

The pommel, a faceted wheel, is a shape encountered in the Leppaho Viking swords, a group of swords excavated from Viking graves dating from 980-1000. The crossguard is of an early form, which the Vikings referred to as Gaddhjalt [spike hilt]. The blade is designed for the cutting style of fighting used during this period and has a fuller running 2/3 the length of the blade. Our version features a hardwood handle, wrapped in leather. The cross guard and pommel are solid steel, polished and fitted on to a full tang that is peened at the top of the pommel for strength and durability. The scabbard is made from wood then wrapped in leather with a solid steel end cap.
