Medieval Steel Viking Warrior Spatha Battle Sword & Scabbard

The Viking sword is a new form of spatha, evolving out of the Migration Period sword in the 8th century and developing into the classical knightly sword in the 11th century with the emergence of larger crossguards. This reproduction of an early Viking Age Spatha sword is suitable for collection, stage performance, and reenactment. The sword measures 33" in length and features a 440 stainless steel blade that is slightly sharpened and measures 27". A ridge runs the length of the blade with a fuller down half the length. The traditional arch-shaped guard is made of solid steel, and the handle, which fits for one hand, is made of steel wrapped with leather. The pommel is steel in the transitional design of the early Viking period. The sword comes with a wood-constructed scabbard with an imitation leather wrap, and the drag and scabbard throat are bronzed steel. A set of suspension rings allows the sword to be hung from the waist or the back.
