The Blunt Michael Tinker Pearce 9th Century Viking Sword's design , while not a direct copy of any particular sword, was inspired by historical examples from the early 9th Century, most notably finds from the area around Trondheim, Norway, where the circular indentation hilt decoration was popular.The scabbard is provided with suspension points and a period chape, giving the sheathed sword a very attractive appearance. The construction of the Tinker Pearce Viking Sword differs from other swords in the Tinker series inasmuch as they are tang-riveted (peened) in period fashion at the pommel, primarily to satisfy Viking re-enactment requirements, and the blunt blade design is very much directed towards re-enactment rather than sparring. However, as with the other swords in the Michael Tinker Pearce series, replacement blades are available and Tinker is offering a blade-replacement and re-peening service for users unable to undertake the task themselves. See models CASH2408 for the Tinker Sharp Viking Sword and CASH2420 for the Blunt replacement blade.
This fully functional Viking Sword, is tailored to meet the demands of reenactment and stage combat.
This is a high quality , high performance sword made by Hanwei , which you can proudly use and display.
