Viking Sword (SHARP)
Viking Sword (SHARP)
This is a steel viking-style hilt mounted on a SHARP Hanwei-Tinker Viking blade. The grip is black leather over a poplar core. The hilt is decorated with filework and the pommel is in two pieces held together with screws (not rivets), and steel wire details. The tang is threaded 5/6-18 and secured with a recessed hex-nut. The Hanwei-Tinker blade is very cleanly done, very sharp, and balances well. I imagine it will cut well, though i haven’t done any test cutting with it.
The stats are as follows:
Overall Length: 37”
Blade Length: 31”
Hilt Length: 6”
Grip Length: 4”
POB: 5.25” from base of blade
COP: 21.25” from base of blade
