Viking Warrior’s Steel Sword – 38” Functional Blade with Leather-Wrapped Scabbard

Description

Step into the world of Viking-age Europe with this 38-inch Viking Warrior’s Sword, a finely balanced weapon forged in the spirit of the seafaring raiders and noble Norsemen of legend. Based on archaeological patterns from the 9th to 11th centuries, this sword combines traditional design with practical craftsmanship for safe, controlled handling.

Crafted from high-carbon steel, the blade features a broad fuller that runs nearly the full length, enhancing both strength and flexibility without adding excess weight. Its classic disc pommel and straight crossguard offer an iconic silhouette that echoes weapons found in Viking burials and museum collections.

The leather-wrapped grip—built over a hardwood core—provides comfort and traction during prolonged use, while the full-tang construction ensures structural durability. With a balance point approximately 6 inches from the guard, the sword feels responsive and maneuverable in hand, ideal for stage combat and movement-based martial arts.

This piece includes a matching scabbard with a wood core wrapped in black leather, reinforced with polished steel fittings that complete the historical look while protecting the blade during storage or transit.

Though functional for light sparring and choreographed performance, the sword features a blunt edge and is not intended for cutting or full-contact steel-on-steel combat.
