The Viking Challenge - 10th Century Wootz Viking Sword

Описание: The YouTube Viking Challenge!!! Join me as I forge my very first Viking style sword! For this build I tried to stay as historically accurate as possible. I was aiming for a 10th century style sword and sheath.

The blade is 27 inches and 34 inches overall. The sword by itself weighs in at 2.7 lbs / 1.23 Kg
