Swordier Single Handed Viking Sword White Bronze Leather Sheath Damascus

Viking swords were primarily slashing weapons, typically double-edged and around 70-80 cm long, with blades ranging from 60 to 90cm. They were valuable and often decorated, sometimes with pattern welding and inlays, and could be domestically produced or imported. Swords were often given names and were considered sacred in Norse culture.This model is a medium-light Viking sword suitable for one-handed use. With a point of balance at 5.12 inches from the guard, it has a forward balance that is ideal for slashing. The distal taper design of the blade enhanced flexibility while maintaining strength. The genuine leather sheath requires regular maintenance to prevent moisture damage or cracking, as with any natural leather item.
