Hey everyone, up for sale is a sword that's been sitting around for awhile, figured I'd give it another chance here. This piece is inspired by sword XII.2 in Oakeshott's Records of the Medieval Sword, a late Viking age design dating between 950 and 1000.

My interpretation is based off of a Hanwei Tinker single hand blade (Early Medieval Single Hander). The blade has been sharpened, as the factory edge was quite dull. The fittings are mild steel and have a satin finish that matches the blade. Both the scabbard and grip feature poplar wood cores wrapped in soft brown leather. The scabbard also features a red oak strap bridge finished with boiled linseed oil. The hilt is secured via a nut that has been rounded to resemble a small peen block. The sword fits snugly in the scabbard and will not fall out if held upside down, but is still easy to unsheath.

The price is $250 plus shipping.

Stats:
Overall length: 38 inches
Blade length: 31.5 inches
Blade width at guard: 2.06 inches
Guard width: 4 inches
Handle length: 4.19 inches
PoB: 6.5 inches from guard
Weight: 2.4 pounds






Thanks for looking,
Alan
