Key Features That Set It Apart

High-Polished Stainless Steel Blade

The core of this legendary weapon is its 31-inch blade, boasting a striking high-mirror polish that accentuates its broad, distinctive fuller—the central groove engineered by early smiths to reduce weight while preserving maximum structural strength. Crafted from low-maintenance stainless steel, it effortlessly resists rust and tarnish, offering a museum-quality display piece without the hassle of constant oiling.

Historic Curved Guard & Three-Lobed Pommel

True to the classic Wheeler Type VI and Petersen Type L hilt classifications of the early Viking era, this replica features a short crossguard slightly curved toward the blade and a heavy, three-lobed pommel. This iconic hilt structure provides a low center of gravity, delivering the swift, light, and nimble handling that Norse elites relied on in fast-paced close combat.

Leather-Wrapped Metal Grip

Experience a secure, historically accurate hold. The robust 7-inch handle features a solid cast-metal base completely wrapped in tightly bound, textured genuine leather. This layout guarantees a reliable, non-slip grip that feels substantial, heavy, and highly responsive in the hand.

Included Premium Leather Scabbard

Protect your historic investment with pride. This sword comes complete with a custom-fitted, genuine leather scabbard built for safe storage, easy transport, or seamless integration into your Viking reenactment kit, sword belts, or wall armor displays.

A Historical Legend: King Godfred (Gudfred) ruled the Danes until 810 AD, uniting Jutland and expanding the formidable Danevirke fortification to halt the Frankish empire. To carry a three-lobed sword named in his honor is to hold a symbol of absolute defiance, royal power, and battle-tested leadership.
