CAS Hanwei - Practice Viking Sword

The Practical Viking sword is based on our Godfred sword, whose design originated in 9th century Scandinavia. The lobate pommel and down-turned guard are typical of Viking swords of the period, as is the broad blade with its deep, full-length fullers. The sword is well-balanced and, with a weight slightly over 2 lbs, it is very easy to wield.

This replica sword has been specially designed to meet needs of re-enactment and professional stage combat. This popular style of sword features authentic hilt styling, with fully tempered un-edged and un-pointed blades. It is designed to withstand rugged use while providing the level of safety required by many of today�s re-enactment societies. The 28'' blade is crafted from the finest 1065 high-carbon steel, hardened to 50HRC, which restricts edge-notching to acceptable levels while providing resilience and protection against brittleness.

Every order comes complete with a scabbard fabricated in glass-filled resin featuring an elegant wood-grain finish to provide great impact resistance, to eliminate swelling and to minimize blade corrosion problems. The scabbard also features belt rings that adjust to allow vertical or horizontal carry.
