Circa 750 - The British Museum has many fine Viking swords, but one
of the most beautiful and deadly is the "Leuterit" sword.
This sword has the name "Leuterit" engraved
on the blade and it is believed to be the name of the smith that
made it. We have not included this on our copy, as it is cost
prohibitive. But, we have stayed true to the size and weight of
the original, and to its deadly beauty.
The Vikings were quite conscious of the need
for a good sword. When they found one they took quite good
care of it, so that many swords served several generations of
warriors. Guard and pommel are silver, with copper lozenges.
Grip is wood with silver pins.
You must 18 years of age or older to purchase the Leuterit
Sword.
