For my video review of a similar "Lord of Battles" sword, see here: Review of Generic Medieval Sword
Classified as the type X1 by Oakshott's typology, our Norman sword is distinguished by having a slender blade, generally long in proportion to the hilt with a very narrow fuller running to within a few inches of the point. The diamond shape blade is extremely well balanced and is light in weight making cut and thrust sword movements easy.
It comes with a "Brazil Nut" pommel which is iconic for later Viking, Norman and early Medieval Swords,
The blade is made from high carbon EN45 steel.and has been tempered.
The grip is wood wrapped in high grade leather for a secure grip. it comes with a matching scabbard, made of wood and wrapped in leather to match the grip.The belt is large so it can be shortened fit the owner.
As this sword is hand forged and not mass produded, its finish and its overall measurements can vary slightly.
