Stage Combat Five Lobe Viking Sword

Our Stage Combat swords feature tempered, high carbon steel blades and are designed for light combat use. They have durable, thick edges, more than suitable for the rigours of stage combat and display fights. They also feature rounded tips for extra safety. Stage Combat swords are noticeably heavier than historical replicas due to the added weight afforded by the thicker edges. These swords are not designed for re-enactment use.

This sword is hand crafted from EN45 carbon spring steel, featuring a broad, straight-edged blade with a wide fuller down its center. The fuller stops about one-fifth the blade-length away from the rounded tip, helping to give the sword balance and better weight, without detracting from its durability and rigid strength. The cast-steel guard is gently concaved and turned towards the blade, while its small size is a classic feature of Migration era swords. The grip is wrapped in leather and offers a secure hold, while the ornate, five-lobed pommel acts as a distinctive and unique feature that sets this sword apart from the run-of-the-mill blades. It comes complete with a leather wrapped, wooden scabbard.
