Authentic Viking Long sword

Superior performance exists in this high carbon steel blade that shines with professional excellence. The full tang of the blade runs through the sturdy handle for supreme durability, displaying Authentic posture in both reenactments and sword play. A beautiful fuller centers the blade and meets a central ridge towards the end, extending the capabilities and blade performance. A full carbon steel hand guard protects your hard grip on the tacky genuine leather handle grip. Behind the stitched leather lies wooden inserts and a full tang that you can feel when striking a mark. A solid steel pommel weighs the rear of the handle and each sword is individually balanced to provide quick, stable, and accurate handling. The Authentic Viking Longsword comes with a wooden scabbard with leather wrap. The leather is stitched and each scabbard is hand made to fit the sword. Steel fittings on the throat and base make the scabbard durable, even when weighted by the sword. It fits into most Medieval longsword frogs. Inside the scabbard is a soft lining that will absorb fluids from the blade and keep the oil spread smoothly. Oil and cleanliness of the sword is important to prevent rust from occurring on the high performance carbon steel. Please keep your sword oiled and clean from moisture for maximum performance. This sword comes with a dull edge for safety and reenactments. It can be professionally sharpened for use in combat or practice. Note Sword Frogs item Numbers IN6508 and IN6507 are not Included.
