Červenka's Viking sword looks pretty heavy (But not as heavy as that anvil, though).

Hello Sharil,
I would be surprised if it were heavy. It is listed at 1100 grams, which makes it lighter than my cervenka Early Gothic at 1160 grams, which sword handles very nicely, nimble and responsive. Cervenka's taper is very well done so the width is deceptive.

Bon coeur et bon bras
