Deepeeka Rus Viking Sword

The Rus Viking Sword – a remarkable recreation inspired by the past. This Viking sword brings to life the spirit of a 9th or 10th century original, uncovered beneath the remains of a funeral pyre in present-day Russia. It likely once graced the hand of a esteemed Kievan Rus Viking Chieftain or champion, embodying the power and prestige of its era.

The sword's imposing cutting blade is meticulously forged from tempered 1060 high carbon steel. To faithfully reproduce the markings on the original blade, it features an "O" etching on one side and a cross on the other, preserving the historic authenticity.

Crafted with intricate attention to detail, the guard and pommel are cast from fine quality brass, adorned with Viking design motifs that echo the grandeur of the past. Reflecting historical craftsmanship, the two-part pommel elegantly marries the blade tang to the pommel base, overlaying it with a dual-riveted pommel cap. The durable wooden grip is enveloped in tightly braided brass wire, offering both a secure hold and a touch of Viking opulence.

The sword finds its perfect companion in a wooden scabbard, encased in meticulously stitched, high-quality vegetable-tanned leather. An antiqued brass chape adds a touch of authenticity. The integrated sword belt, crafted from supple and substantial leather, features embossed knotwork designs. The adjustable buckle, inspired by a matched Viking serpent buckle of antiqued brass, completes the ensemble.
