Product description

This sword is a replica of a 9th-century Viking sword discovered in a burial mound (tumulus) at Kildonnan / Dail Sithean. The sword likely belonged to a Viking jarl from the upper ranks of the Viking elite. It is classified as a Petersen Type D. The luxurious grip indicates that the owner must have been exceptionally wealthy. A similar original has been found in Bjornsholm on Jutland, Denmark.

This Viking sword features a thin blade with a wide fuller. The crossguard and grip are made of bronze and are richly decorated. The sword comes with a scabbard.
