Irish Viking Sword by Hanwei

Hanwei's latest addition to their line of Viking swords is based on the remains of a sword excavated in Ireland and attributed to the early tenth century. With elegantly classical lines, this sword not only cuts well but also handles beautifully. The distal leaf profile and tapings, combined with the characteristically wide fuller, achieve a slight forward weight balance, providing the cutting power characteristic of Viking blades. The overall length of the sword is approximately 87.6 cm, with a blade length of approximately 71.7 cm and a handle length of approximately 14 cm.

This monosteel 5160 sheet replica of a tenth-century blade is made from 5160 steel and weighs approximately 1049 g. The balance point is approximately 11.4 cm from the protection, resulting in excellent handling.

Overall, this Viking sword from Hanwei is a faithful reproduction of a blade from the tenth century, with attention to detail and craftsmanship that allows for both practical use and historical accuracy. Whether for display or for use, this sword is a worthy addition to any collection.
