Your enemies fear you in battle when you wield the Long Viking Seax against them. Made from EN45 high carbon steel, this robustly constructed dagger has a thick, tempered blade. The single-edged blade is blunted for stage combat. Two fullers run down the length of the blade near the spine. The fullers help to lighten the durable blade. The blade also features an angled tip, which is common for a seax. The seax continues with a disk-shaped crossguard with a blackened finish. Angled grooves adorn the sides of the guard. Then, the hilt has a brown, leather-wrapped grip. The hilt ends with a peened, mushroom-shaped pommel. Grooves also adorn the blackened steel pommel.

Finally, this seax comes with a brown leather sheath. The sheath has stitched edges. Also, it features two loops on the sides. These loops allow the sheath to hang from a belt, not included. Bring this seax to your next stage fight or historical re-enactment. You are sure to look like a mighty Viking while wielding this stage combat dagger.

Our painted Viking shield features Huginn and Muninn, Odin’s two ravens. Huginn is the old Norse word for “thought” and Muninn is the old Norse word for “memory”. Every morning at sunrise he sends them off to fly throughout all of the nine realms to gather information on what is happening. It is constructed from thick wood and features a wooden grip and steel boss. It is edged with rawhide to protect from sword and axe cuts. This shield is a little on the light side for full contact re-enactment but is perfect for theatre and film work and great as a display piece.

Our painted Viking shield features Fafnir, the fearsome dragon of Norse legend, whose greed and treachery became the stuff of myth. Once a dwarf, Fafnir was transformed into a monstrous serpent after slaying his own father to claim a cursed hoard of gold. Consumed by his lust for wealth, he retreated into the wilderness, guarding his treasure and spreading terror to all who dared approach.

His reign of fear was ultimately ended by the hero Sigurd, who, guided by cunning and fate, struck Fafnir down from beneath as the beast crawled over a pit. With the dragon’s death, Sigurd claimed both glory and the cursed riches—though the shadow of that treasure would follow him thereafter.

Our painted Viking shield features the mighty drakkar, the iconic longship that carried Norse raiders across distant seas in search of glory and conquest. Sleek, swift, and built for both ocean and river travel, these vessels were the backbone of Viking expansion, their dragon-headed prows striking fear into those who glimpsed them on the horizon.

His reign of fear was ultimately ended by the hero Sigurd, who, guided by cunning and fate, struck Fafnir down from beneath as the beast crawled over a pit. With the dragon’s death, Sigurd claimed both glory and the cursed riches—though the shadow of that treasure would follow him thereafter.
