The Cawood Viking Sword, 11th Century
The celebrated Cawood Sword, named after its discovery location near Cawood Castle in England, is regarded as one of the finest and best-preserved examples of an 11th century Viking sword in existence. Preserved in the mud of the bed of the River Ouse for almost a millenium, the sword has now found a permanent home in the Yorkshire Museum, where it is a leading attraction. What is almost certainly a sister sword was unearthed in Norway in 1888, giving a valuable clue to the Cawood Sword's origin.
Hanwei's version of the sword replicates the lobated pommel and steeplydowncurved quillons of the hilt perfectly, while the wide-fullered blade is reproduced in 5160 high-carbon steel. The weight and balance provide for a very usable sword. No details of the original scabbard are known, but the styling of Hanwei’s leather-covered version is typical of the period.
Key features:
- 5160 High-Carbon Steel
- Period Scabbard included
- Based on Yorkshire Museum Piece
Details:
- Overall: approx. 91.5 cm
- Blade Length: approx. 76.2 cm
- Handle Length: approx. 10.2 cm
- Weight: approx. 1105 g
- Blade Material: 5160 High-Carbon Steel
Specs may slightly vary from piece to piece.
