Product description
New from Red Dragon (known for their high-quality HEMA synthetic training swords) is this line of high-level historical replica swords. These swords come with a leather scabbard and are crafted from high-quality steel with excellent hardness.
The sword is based on originals from the Viking Age. Swords of this type were used throughout Northern Europe around the 10th century. The sword features a five-lobed pommel, which was more common than the seven-lobed pommels. The Petersen Type S pommel is dominated by a large central lobe, flanked by several smaller lobes.
The sword has a wooden scabbard wrapped in brown leather with a brown leather grip. The edge is 1.5mm thick. The blade is tempered and constructed from EN42J spring steel. It has a core hardness of 45 HRC, whilst the edge has a hardness of 50 HRC. Due to the two different hardness levels, the sword is flexible and less brittle than comparable models. This sword is a combination of excellent craftsmanship and years of HEMA experience.
