Description

Haller Viking Sword with Leather Sheath

The Haller Viking Sword is a full-size historical-style sword with a carbon steel blade, wooden grip and matching leather sheath. Its straightforward Viking-inspired design makes it suitable for collections, historical displays, themed interiors, photography and controlled presentation.

The sword has an approximately 76 cm blade and an overall length of approximately 90 cm. At approximately 1,050 g without the sheath, it is lighter than many heavier historical-style steel swords while still remaining a substantial metal object that requires careful handling.

Important: The supplied product information does not specify the blade-edge condition, tip geometry, heat treatment or suitability for reenactment combat. The sword must therefore be handled as a potentially sharp and dangerous object and must not be used for sparring, blade contact or cutting practice unless the manufacturer explicitly confirms that such use is permitted.

Carbon Steel Blade

The blade is made from carbon steel. This material is commonly used for historical-style blades because it provides strength and a traditional appearance.

Carbon steel is not stainless and may corrode when exposed to moisture, fingerprints, sweat or unsuitable storage conditions. The blade should be cleaned, dried and protected with a thin layer of suitable oil after handling.

The supplied specifications do not state the exact steel grade, blade hardness, edge thickness or heat-treatment method.

Wooden Grip

The grip is made from wood, supporting the sword’s traditional appearance. Natural wood may display small variations in colour, grain and surface texture.

The grip should be inspected regularly for cracks, looseness, swelling or other damage. Avoid prolonged exposure to water, excessive humidity and strong heat.

Leather Sheath

A matching leather sheath is included for storage and transport. The sheath helps protect the blade from direct contact with surrounding objects and reduces the likelihood of accidental contact with the edge.

Leather is a natural material and may vary slightly in colour, grain and surface finish. The sheath should be kept dry and treated periodically with a suitable leather-care product.

A sheath does not make the sword harmless and does not confirm that wearing or carrying it in public is lawful.
