The Vikings were fierce and ferocious in battle and feared no man but more dangerous than them were elite groups called Berserkers. These men would fight in a trance-like fury and could not tell from friend or foe. Whoever got in their way was struck down instantly. They favored bladed weapons, with the ability to gore, slice and cut, possibly considered in their eyes to be the weapons most suitable to end a fight quickly, and effectively. The sword was the primary weapon for these Heathen Devils as the church called them. At least the ones who could afford it; they were easy to wield, easy to carry in all situations, and effective in combat. Berserkers were superb warriors that were admired throughout Norse history. Wielding a weapon such as this in your trance state with its sharp Damascus blade would have gained you immediate victory. This blade is hand forged with Damascus made from1095/15n20 Alloy Steel.
