Norman sword with scabbard, combat sword, Category C
At the Battle of Hastings in 1066, the Normans conquered England and installed William the Conqueror as the new king. This event also marks the end of the Viking Age. The Vikings finally settled on their conquests and, as Christianized Normans, even undertook crusades in honor of their new god. The current sword fits exactly into this warring era, which was characterized by great changes. It can be described as late Viking and Norman .
This sword is exclusively handmade. The straight guard and the characteristic pommel are made of forged and heat-treated cast iron. The spring steel blade, oil-hardened to approximately 48 HRC, extends to the pommel and is hand-riveted there. The handle is wrapped with a leather strap.
The blade has a pronounced groove, giving the sword great elasticity yet lightness. The tip of the blade and the cutting edges are blunt and rounded.
The sword comes with a very handsome leather sheath with a wooden holder serving as a belt loop (for belts with a maximum width of 5 cm). The sheath also has a steel plate.
