Step into a time going back BEFORE the Viking Age with our meticulously crafted historical replica, inspired by the legendary Kragehul I spear. This historical weapon was originally discovered in Kragehul Mose, Denmark, and dates back to the 5th or 6th century in the late migration period. The Kragehul I spear is famous for its unique rune inscriptions, which invoke protection and power, with one of the oldest known uses of the word "alu," thought to be a magical charm. It is debated among historians exactly what the runes say, but the first part of runes are translated as followed:
"ek erilaz āsugīsalas muha haitē, gagaga"
"I, the erilaz of Āsugīsalaz, am called Muha, ga-ga-ga!(magical invocation)"
This weapon with a 13" spearhead and totaling 75" long is engraved with these exact same runes on the shaft. It is hand forged in the traditional way by crafters in the Czech Republic who are word renown for their blacksmithing skill.
