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 made from high-quality steel with excellent hardness.
This sword is based on originals from the Viking Age. Swords like this were used throughout Northern Europe around the 10th century. This 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.
This 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 made of EN42J spring steel. It has a core hardness of 45 HRC, and 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.

This item is produced in limited quantities only. This means that every piece is unique. Sizes & finish may vary lightly from piece to piece.
Prevent rust and corrosion by oiling your weapons regularly. Remove rust easily with black sandpaper. Remove burrs with a whetstone. Make sure you have removed all burrs before using a battle-ready weapon, as they can cause wounds.
Tip: How to adjust the finish of your armour and weaponry
Luxurious (polished)- polish the steel with metal polish or toothpaste. You can even give the item a mirror-like polish. Test on a small surface first!
Handmade (matte)- soak the steel in cola for 40 minutes to 20 hours. Check regularly and treat with black sandpaper.
Antique (patinated) leave the steel to rust for some time in a damp environment, preferably outside. Remove the red layer of rust, to reveal the corroded top layer.
