Product description
This sword is based on a late 10th–early 11th century original discovered in Vammala, Finland. The original is now part of the collection at the Suomen Kansallismuseo (Finnish National Museum) in Helsinki. Classified as an Oakeshott type Xa, it represents a Frankish sword type that stayed popular well into the 13th century. The blade of the original bears the inscription +NSOMEFECIT+. Three other swords with the same inscription were also found in Finland.
This sword saw use among the late Vikings, during the Norman Conquest of England, and throughout the First Crusades. It features a semi-sharp blade made from EN45 spring steel, tempered to a hardness of about 48 HRC.
