Product description
New from Red Dragon (known for their high-quality HEMA plastic training swords) is this line of high-level replica historical swords. These swords come with a leather scabbard and are crafted from high-quality steel, finished to exacting hardness standards.
The sword is based on original Viking swords with a Petersen type H hilt. It is the most prominent type of hilt found on swords from the Viking Age and spans the period from the late 8th century to the late 10th century.
The sword has a wooden scabbard wrapped in brown leather and a brown leather grip. The edge is 1.5 mm thick. The blade is tempered and constructed from EN42J spring steel. It has a core hardness of 45 HRC and an edge hardness of 50 HRC. Owing 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.
