Step into the legacy of the Viking and Norman conquests with our Viking Age Sword Replica, inspired by Type Y swords as classified by renowned archaeologist Jan Petersen. These swords, dating from the 10th to 13th century, have been discovered across Europe, reflecting their Norman origin. The Normans, descendants of Viking settlers in France, spread their influence throughout Europe, and their swords became symbols of power and conquest.
This hand-forged sword is crafted using traditional techniques by expert blacksmiths in the Czech Republic, who are world-renowned for their skill. The sword is fully functional and sharpened, making it ideal for collectors or display, though caution should be exercised when handling. This sword, like those used by professional HEMA and Buhurt fighters across Europe, captures the essence of Norse history and Norman military prowess.
Perfect for anyone passionate about Viking and Norman history, this Type Y sword connects you to a time of warriors and conquest, offering a piece of medieval history crafted with exceptional attention to detail.
Care Instructions: Steel material swords can rust often and quickly and maintenance is a regular part of care. Keep away from moisture and humidity to avoid rust. If rust does develop over time, simply use a sponge and oil/WD40 to scrub away.
