Product description

The sword is based on an original from the 10th century. The original was found in Denmark. Classified as a Petersen type S, it closely resembles the Chertsey sword, which was found in the region of London, England. Petersen categorised a total of 22 Viking swords as type S, making swords of this type, alongside the Oakeshott type X, amongst the most commonly found originals. The original sword had the name +ULFBERH+T engraved on the blade — the mark of the well-known Frankish sword maker. The original is now part of the collection of the National Museum in Copenhagen. The sword is accompanied by a wooden scabbard wrapped in leather. The scabbard features a belt loop and a chape.
