Our latest viking Sword

[Forja Fontenla]

Here is our latest Viking Sword Ragnarok
A commissioned work inspired by a sword that is in the Reichsstadtmuseum of Rothenburg, a town of Ansbach district in the state of Bavaria.
Its a 9 or 10 century Viking sword and the ornamentation is based on the Oseberg style.
The blade was forged in 15n20 and 5160 steel. 57 Rockwell C
The measures are:
6 mm thickness to the cross, 2.5 mm at 20 mm of de point and 45 mm wide. Blade length 81 cm. The weight is 1300 grams.
Looking forward to comments and feedback.

Truly a work of art.
Just curious do you have more photos of the sheath, showing the core?

The scabbard is made of poplar wood wrapped in leather, bonded with adhesive and sewed...
In this picture you look a little ...
Unfortunately we did not take any photo of the the wood core
