Norwegian Viking Sword – National Museum of Denmark Pattern, 10th Century

A broad, fullered Viking sword pattern drawn from an original held in the National Museum of Denmark, Copenhagen - a design closely associated with Norway during the height of the Viking Age.

This sword is based on an original held in the National Museum of Denmark, Copenhagen. Its wide, chopping-suited blade tapers to a point capable of a decisive thrust, a dual-purpose profile typical of the Viking Age's most capable swords. A fuller runs the length of the blade's spine - a deliberate weight-saving measure that let smiths draw out a longer, lighter blade without sacrificing the strength needed to survive a shield-wall clash. The hilt keeps to a restrained, functional silhouette: a short, small crossbar guard beneath a distinctive half-wheel pommel, a form that recurs across Scandinavian finds of the 9th and 10th centuries and marks this piece as belonging to the broader, well-documented family of Viking Age Norwegian swords.

Deepeeka's artisans have faithfully recreated this museum-referenced piece as part of our Viking heritage range, handcrafted to preserve the proportions, guard silhouette, and half-wheel pommel form of the original.

This model was designed in association with Christian Koepfer.
