Description

The pommel follows a traditional two-part construction, secured with rivets, while decorative elements—such as enamel inlays—evoke the garnet-inlaid ornamentation commonly found in original Vendel swords. The stylized ring element on the pommel remains symbolic, reflecting status rather than function.

The blade is forged from EN45 high carbon steel, offering durability and flexibility suitable for reenactment use. Its broad profile and moderate taper are consistent with early medieval cutting swords designed for battlefield effectiveness.
We offer this with a pattern welded damascus blade too (birds eye pattern) for reenactment/ education purpose only.

The sword is paired with a wooden scabbard wrapped in leather, featuring metal fittings and a suspension system allowing it to be worn from a belt or baldric.

This piece represents not only a weapon, but a statement of rank, craftsmanship, and early Scandinavian identity.
