Traditionally Hand-Forged Viking Steel Sword with Brass Fittings – Decorative Display Weapon

Description

Step into the heroic age of Norse legend with this Traditionally Hand-Forged Viking Steel Sword, designed in the spirit of the chieftains who ruled Scandinavia during the 9th and 10th centuries. More than just a weapon, the Viking sword was a prized status symbol—passed through generations, buried with the honored dead, and etched into sagas.

This decorative piece captures that legacy with a wide, high-carbon steel blade—unsharpened for safe use in costuming, display, or ceremonial use. The striking brass lobed pommel and gracefully curved crossguard are inspired by real Viking grave finds, marking this piece as one of power and prestige.

The grip is wrapped in leather for an authentic feel, and the sword includes a full-grain leather scabbard with stitched seams and brass fittings to complement the polished steel finish. Whether displayed in a collection, carried in historical costume, or featured in reenactment photography, this sword stands as a beautiful replica of early medieval craftsmanship.

While commonly referred to as “functional” due to its durable build and full-tang construction, this sword is not sharpened and not intended for cutting or combat. Its purpose is to embody the look and spirit of Viking warfare—without the edge.
